I've been to France, twice this year - probably over a hundred times in all. Just makes me hate the vast majority of French people all the more. But there's something about a lot of French women (the ones who aren't really hairy).

Although I know there's no real rationale behind it - I just hate them, with their outrageous accentes. I do, in fact, have quite a few French friends - but that doesn't stop me hating all the ones I've never met.

I know it's inrational xenophobia - but I just can't help it.

I hate them and their silly froggy country.

Especially Parisians - They're so damn smug and think they're something special.

You see, french people can write english language perhaps better than you do, if I judge by your inaccurate spelling. You hate french people ? Good. On s'en bat les couilles. Oh... sorry : "WE DON'T GIVE A SH*T"

Back to the topic at hand,  Je Adore Paris'...

I love Paris in the springtime, I love Paris in the fall.  However, I don't know who said it, but some of the people are the worst, they really do think they are more civilized than any other nationality, it's comical really, when these same people that think this way stink to high heaven b/c they won't bathe.

No - cooking a proper steak is one thing the French excel at - Nice and rare, dripping with blood, just the way I like it.

No offense, but you either went to someplace that wasn't in the tourbook or was the cheapest restaurant in town.

Nice (pronouced Niece) is a very nice place, a clear definition of "paradise" but also, Paris is a great city to. The problem is with the traffic lights. There is like 1 at every intersection! No stop signs at all! So it takes like forever to get through traffic in some places of France.

You think The Netherlands have nothing interesting to do, than, who was the Coach of the Australian Soccer team this year? Exactly, Guus Hiddink.
There were an Australian team in the world cup ? Wow... I didn't notice it. Didn't even know they were qualified... Same for NL. LOL We may have lost against the final match against Italy, but at least, we had a decent team. And Zidane is THE man.

Know your history before you get all high and mighty and start pointing fingers at a country that was America's strongest advocate when her survival as an independent nation depended on it. Without the Marquis de Lafayette, Louis XVI, General Rochambeau, the Admiral de Grasse, ad infinitum, you'd be eating crumpets and tea instead of those Spicy Habanero Doritos, Jojoba. I know the truth hurts, but without France there would be no United States of America. Period.

American kids falling all over themselves to "hate" France based on a distorted and misinformed version of history. Makes me sick. George Washington and Ben Franklin must be rolling over in their graves.

All i can say is if you really want to see what France is and who the french are just go anywhere but Paris, yeah parisians are surrounded by tourists and they finish with the feeling to be annoyed by them (excepted those who make money with them of course) but this is the case in every touristic capital in the world , no???
I'd like to see the attitude of New-york, London citizens toward tourists.
But yes most of french sucks in foreign languages i have to admit it...

Oh and i noticed that the dutch guys of this forum tend to hate french but maybe it is due to the "NL is a narco-state" sentance of Chirac (among others) but this guy is an idiot and needs to STFU, he doesnt represent the french at all; hes gone in few months anyway.
Personally i love NL and think they define freedom and democracy very well. Oh, and i love coffee shops too heh.

OH btw, all the Americans should know that your passport is also in French do to our history with France.  They are actually considered our Sister country.

You can take your passport and just walk into France do to that fact.

Just because France does not want to go to war at every turn and just because you watch tv and notice some snobby people in Paris, you people are far from culturally aware.

Go walk the streets of ANY country in the middle east or Asia and see what kind of friendly reaction you get.  You people really have a distorted view of the world and how to view one another.

He's obviously saying that if you compare the french reaction towards tourists to the arab reaction, the french are much friendlyer.
I don't know about the Asia part though. Every country I have visited there has been very welcoming...

I feel its only proper to air my grievances

WWII - I blame the french

Who decided that they needed xTreme reparitions at the end of WWI, not to mention the extreme resistance to the league of nations allthough some could contend that wilson essentially allowed them to set terms even though they were in no position to. Couple that with the appeasement during the rise of hitler, also again led by the french. The Magginot line was their own problem.

So at least they know why now.

That wasnt for our benefit. That was to embarass the brits. Stop actling like they actually cared.

And i know history well enough to know that if the french had a back bone there would be no WWII
