THE BEST: Forty per cent of French men, and 25 per cent of women, do not change their underwear daily – and only 47 per cent bathe every day.

[Drango]

It’s wrong to be French.

[Obie Wan]

Maybe the 30 reasons are valid however at the moment the leader of France is more conservative then the leader of England or the United States for that fact,so they’re not entirely bad !!!

[kbennkc]

They are perfidious frog merde .

[rbosque]

The French make good wine. ;-)

LOL! Thank you! I work with a Brit who has been an American Citizen for 10 years now. He LOATHES the French and whenever we have a difficult customer, insists that they must be French.

He’s gonna love this. :)

I take it you’ve never had the pleasure of visiting a French beach - infinitely more entertaining than visiting a Brit beach...

You would have been having that pleasure on a German beach if not for the U.S and the Brits .

[steveyp]

I love this thread.

[muir_redwoods]

It seems wrong to criticize the French now that they seem to be improving.

I would counsel patience

[kbennkc]

You are so right . It won’t be long till they screw us again .

The organ in question measured 1.25in.

SHRINKAGE! SHRINKAGE!

“Maybe the 30 reasons are valid however at the moment the leader of France is more conservative then the leader of England or the United States for that fact,so they’re not entirely bad !!!”

I couldn’t agree more! Could it be that the French will show the way to us?

[Live free or die]

Do forgive me for urinating in the corn flakes here but as time goes by I am seeing more and more similarities between the French and our English cousins. Indeed it is sad commentary when the new French administration is more hawkish on subjects like Iran while the English are pulling out of Southern Iraq IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT!!!

Attended a class several years ago made up of 6 or 7 Brits and an equal number of French (with a smattering Americans). The instructor spent most of his time keeping the two international groups apart. Didn’t learn much, but was fun to watch. LOL at the memory.

The organ in question measured 1.25in.

Is that length, width, or radius? Possibly circumference?

As late as the 40’s the Brits commonly referred to syphilis as “French gout.”
