So read Lewis again he has better advices. Try again dear

Michael Lewis is a popous little liberal twit who has lived a lie on his daddy's checkbook and written two fictionalized biographies about it. If you are leaning on him for support, the French are bigger jerks than I thought.

the French insult for Brits is roast-beefs

And in response we call them "frogs." I think we all know who won that dinner.

At first, the Nazis ate the Frenchies "lunch."

Then, we bought the Krauts "farm."

Sorry if my tone threw you.

Michael Lewis is the author of Liar's Poker which actually does put make fun of the French. Persnally, when it comes to satirizing the French, I think it starts and ends with Peter Sellers' "Inspector Clouseau."

The 0cents is a form of mockery, ridicule or parody.

If you go to my 0cents.com web site, you will see many examples of such ridicule.
