I have to admit, I thought I'd never see the day when America was at daggers drawn with France to the same level that Britain is. That day has come.

Bump!

Fighting a War without the French is like going deer hunting without an accordion.

Confusion to the Frogs!

Who needs them anyway, we know who our friends are.

Poor French. It's not easy being green.

Ah, yes. Hating the French. An important piece of the US/UK friendship! It's nice to see we haven't forgotten.

[dfwgator]

I fart in their general direction.

[dfwgator]

Don't worry. The French will be there when they need us.

We had a French foreign exchange student. I asked her about that.

She said the problem with the UK has to do with agriculture. They don't like the U.S. because we showed up too late in WWII

Nobody in their right minds gives a fat rat's ass what the penny-ante, pissant French government thinks anyway.

[HennepinPrisoner]

I think we should follow Ann Coulter's advice and just invade France.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!! I am going to ask a dumb question -- why are they called Frogs? I must have missed something along the way. I detest frogs but I was just wondering how frogs and French went together.

My vocabulary consists more and more of I HATE the (fill in the blank)

The French know the "monkey" line - far before we started using it on a regular basis. I remember being in France 10 years ago, and The Simpsons was one of the national networks (France 1 or 2 maybe) meticulously translated.
