French store risks closure for not selling booze or pork
The Local - France ^

Posted on 08/05/2016 9:50:08 PM PDT by ameribbean expat

The head of the housing authority that owns the shop, Olivier Virolle, has filed an appeal to terminate the lease because he says the current shopkeeper isn't respecting the conditions of the contract, namely that the store act as a "general supermarket".

The French are definitely different...but they deal with the problem in their own way. No red table wine? No pork? I'm shocked. Shocked, I say! And of course the head of the local housing authority owns the building.

"Stop Joking on FreeRepublic. This stuff is serious."

This ping is a formal alert.

Mr. Midnight has declared FreeRepublic to be a humor free zone.

Please adopt a somber attitude and carry on.

Well in MY store I’m gonna sell sarc tags to all the FReepers who forget theirs, and a sense of humor to all the other FReepers.
Think I’ll make any dough?

Ugh, I live in a college town and see muzzies way too much. Of course, with 30k students from around the world, you’re gonna have some real choice specimens walking down the street. Have seen some total freaks walk by...the redeeming factor is there a lot of hot chicks strolling downtown to the bars, and lots of vintage muscle cars cruising by.

The hot chicks are an illusion. Once you get to know them a little, you’ll realize that they’re all mostly zeros.

Crazy... Islam is definitively an anathema to the liberties the French seem to cherish. Surprised the intruders still have their heads.

That reminds me.

You know it doesn’t matter what brand.
Could be Campbell’s, could be Bush’s, could be Fred Zlotnik’s.
Whatever Pork and Beans you get in each can there is always just ONE piece of pork.
And it’s not like it’s a good healthy chunk of salt pork.
It’s like a quarter inch cube of some old bacon rind.

And you heat up the beans and if you’re sharing with your wife, only one of you gets the pork piece.
And if it’s your turn to get the pork, you can’t decide whether to eat it right now and gratify the moment, or save it for the last bite to create a false but pleasant memory of how good the beans with and iddy-bitty piece of pork were.

So if you remember, you try to save a couple of pieces of bacon from breakfast to cut up in the next can, but they never make it there because bacon sitting out or even cold in the fridge just inherently has a life expectancy best expressed in nanoseconds.

So why don’t they just leave out the pork all together and call it “Beans.”
That way when you buy it, you’ll remember to get some pork to add.
And if you decide you want Pork and Beans, you’ll just have to make fresh bacon or salt pork when you heat up the beans.
Except of course that a lot of times you don’t even wait for them to heat - you just eat them cold out of the can.
Especially if you’re alone.
