Does Anyone Like France?

[Admiral Valdemar]

*Ear pricks up*

Someone mention "cricket" and "decent" in the same sentence?!

Dang, have you people no shame! I HATE that dull sport!

[Mr Bean]

Acutal the only Country I know with a Infefority Complex would be Russia
To them from day ones its been keeping up with the Joneses with Joneses being everyone except them :\

For example why build 2x as many mobile Missile Delivered Rockets as we did?

We had three times more in THOSE missiles alone to blow up every single country, We had 8x as much as we needed to put a nuke in every City and Reigion of Russia

The problem the US and Russia did not stumble to untill later when they looked back is tehy relised not only could they blow up the other nation 120 times over they could destroy the world 30 times over and frankly fokes you don't need that many bombs

As we both tumbled to in 1990s when we looked back and said...
Woops!

My dislike at the time stemmed from being called the "fourth placed America". It's about the only insult you can level at my country that I'd take offence at.

And I wouldn't worry about me hating America. Hey! in Australia, the various states hate each other more than we hate America.

Proof (in the form of a joke):
A Tasmanian, Victorian and a South Australian are walking along the beach when they find a magic lamp. They recognise this for what it is, and rub it, and out pops a genie. The genie says, "right, since there are three of you, you get one wish each."
The Tasmanian says "My state has really horrible weather. I wish it was nicer."
"Done!" says the genie, and Tassie weather becomes much nicer.
The Victorian says "I want you to build a 100 foot wall all around victora so noone else can share in our wonderful state."
"DOne!" says the genie.
The South Australian says "You know that wall?"
"Yes?"
"Is it waterproof?"
"Yes," says the Genie.
"FIne," says the South Australian. "Fill it with water."

[Lusankya]

Not that it's ever a really serious hate.

[Admiral Piett]

Just a Question of mine, I'm seeing if anywhere here on this board can acutal name a reason for or acutal does like France

Preferbly both but I'll take one or the other if nessary

And vote on the attached poll

Cool things for which you can like France .
1)cool fortifications:the wall of the Atlantic,the Maginot and much else (Vauban rules)
2)Cool nuclear powerlants.
3)Cool trains.
4)Paris has a cool sewerage system.

[Cpt_Frank]

Hey Admiral, I'm only 2km away from a city Vauban designed as a Fortress, Saarlouis.

[Ted]

How about France's attitude that they have a superior culture and language. That they should be the center and leader of Europe. Their irrational hatred of all things American.

This is more like Americans, with their thoughts of superiority.
But why is it that Americans try to buy Canadian flags off of Canadian backpackers?

[Cpt_Frank]

oh my god OLD thread

[HemlockGrey]

They might start to cry, and that wouldn't be very nice.

Especially since our tears are ICBMS and precision bombers.

[Colonel Olrik]

oh my god OLD thread

Anyway, I like FRENCH GIRLS

Man, their pronnounce.. A french girl speaking english sounds like a direct invitation to bed.

That's a fact. Knoweledge adquired by direct experience.

[Illuminatus Primus]

My ex-girlfriend is French. The Colonel speaks the truth.

[Tsyroc]

Though we should probably stop being nasty to America.

This is an anti-France forum, after all, and we don't want to hurt the poor little American's egos too much. They might start to cry, and that wouldn't be very nice.

Well you can tie it together because if it weren't for France supporting us the American Revolution wouldn't have been won. Of course they went bankrupt from spending so much monety to stick it to King George and co which ended up leading to higher taxes, and little revolution of their own....


By the way, when I was visiting your fine country with the US Navy everyone from my ship just loved the place. The common comment was that it was just like the US in the 70s.
