Katell has purchased her flight ticket so she will definitely be on the Playa again this year! Please don't smother her with affection. I'll take care of that. N

I know, somewhere, there is a joke about French cuisine, stinky cheese, and smothering in sauces here.............

Shit, I thought they probably surrendered again.

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Thu Jun 23, 2011 2:36 pm

that would be a first, if they surrendered even before being attacked.

And I was hoping that they'd revoked the citizenship of that creepy world bank guy.

I guess I should be expected to know who Katell is? Or even care? Well, it just follows if I don't know Katell, I probably wouldn't give a rats ass if she got her ticket or not. Did I somewhere miss her post in the introduce yourself thread?

The only good news from France would be that there'll be no French attending.

or....

.... that they've incorporated soap into their culture.

Doesn't French perfume do the trick?

Nah, soap and THEN perfume usually does the trick.

As a person who is actually in this frog-laden country right now, let me say a few things, pro and con.

PRO: The subway system is clean and efficient. The people are friendly and have more teeth than the English. You can drink beer (or biere as they say it here) on the street. Some have even heard of soap.

CON: Goddamn piece of shit useless asshole country, you cannot buy a bag of ice nor can you get ice from an "ice machine" (something these kermits have never heard of) no matter how desperate you are. I twisted my knee walking to (G-d forgive this Jewish peasent) Notre Dame Cathedral (no wonder the Lord took vengence upon me) and all I wanted is some ice to ice my knee and to make a bunch of cocktails (Myers dark rum with pineapple and OJ). More the latter than the former. "No monsoiur, we do not have---what you call it?---ice in France." Fuck you. What a backwards anti-alcoholic country. Frog leg eating bastards.

That and they pronounce ice like "ass". While I don't mind a woman's ass in my adult beverage, I think I'd probably end up with a smelly homeless guy in my glass

Liberty and fraternity indeed!

kinda setting a low bar Doc, and the English are friendly they just don't smile at you cause the teeth thing.

Wrong. Everyone knows the way to persuade the French to do something is to tell them the Americans hate it.

He's already in trouble with his g*d for the cathedral visit, I think goosestepping would cause him to lose his legs or something.

Being a French myself, let me take my revenge on the delicate french-bashing I just read here.

Beer ? At least we have beers. I mean, real beers. As the Monty Python once said, "Do you know what the american beer and having sex in a canoe have in common ?"

"Well, that's f**king close to water !"

Food ? I often wonder how I'm gonna survive in the US next year if I want to eat proper, low fat food.

Anyway, love you already !

You have ice in London?

Because when I was there in 2005 during the heat spell I was damn near run out on a rail when I stopped into a cafe' and asked for iced coffee. You'd think I asked for one of the Queen's corgies so I could have anal sex.

cafe's are where working men eat, they drink tea or hot coffee if you want an iced coffee goto starbucks or some other coffee shop. cafes are for greasy bacon and fried eggs.

cafe' is french in england its a cafe (pronounced kaf) or a greasy spoon.
