One of my closest friends is French and our friendship is strengthened out of a recognition that our symbiotic hatred of each other's capitol city has reached the point of parody.

someone cleverer than any of us here once said that we should judge a man not by his friends, but by his enemies.

That the great enemy of England is France and vice versa only goes to demonstrate both nation's greatness.

God I'm SOOOO fucking drunk right now.

whatever. the english and the french are good at telling themselves how goot they are. that's about it.

buona notte, mes amis, no sean hijoeputas el uno con el otro, and have fun.

I will not be told, either by an American or an Italian, about the 'special relationship' that is held between England and France. They hate us, we hate them, but deep down we both have the utmost respect for one another. So my claim that Paris is overrated is not a triumphalist one, but rather one that is filled with dismay.

you just perfectly summarised my last post.

I'm gonna cry...:o
I think I never wanted to prove that French are the most intelligent people.
I'm here to have fun, to talk about music and stuffs, not to quarrel with somebody on this board. I don't have any problem with english, italians, spanish, americans... I don't claim that I'm clever, exceptionnal. You can think what you want about me, I don't care.

Fuck Sarramkrop, as an Englishman to a Frenchman, you're cool.

not really. and that's because you start a sentence claiming that you are. tedious, maybe, but cool?

But a place where they're treating people based on the language they speak doesn't sound like it ever could be the greatest city in the world, right?

Anyway, the younger generation of Parisians has been very willing to conversate in English to me actually. Though of course I experienced as well that you instantly win a lot of sympathy when trying to conversate in broken French with a heavy foreign accent. But who wouldn't appreciate that?

On a different note, I've lost count on the amount of stereotypes and predictabilities that have already been spewed in this thread.

Thank you, you're so kind !!
You're cool too.
You're drunk ?

They all have their shit bits.. as far as I've seen. I've stayed in some miserable fucking places in many countries, only to turn a corner and find something beautiful. Right there, side-by-side with the shite.

"Every window in Alcatraz has a view of San Francisco"..?

I have to confess that I haven't been to Paris in the last couple of years so I'm unaware of any immediate changes.

it's the french and the english. they always choose the best stereotypes for themselves. damnit.

To the point of triple vision. seriously.

I just wish I'd named this thread Paris. Discuss.

That's such an Italian thing to say... I mean really.


Oh, and racist too. Racist.

Waow !!! I never went to that point !!!:)
It must be awsome ! How many smiley can you see on that post ?

from racist to racist wannabe.;)
