maybe. but at least I’m not French!
care to wipe out another S. Pacific island or two?
and who was the govt. asshole who called Isreal a “shitty little country” in front of reporters?
sell any reactors to Saddam lately? oh, right. you did.
Americans: make a note - next time the germans want to roll over that shitty little country, let’s let them.
um…
seems so many cannot distinguish between the actions of the government of a country and the actions of individual citizens/subject/whatever of a country.
Trying to equate the Vichy to Tim McVeigh doesn’t work.
(and, yes, the the people who sank the Rainbow Warrior were real, live French spies, carrying out orders from Paris. Y’all should know this. It was in all the papers. (and, find your own damned cite))
Oh wow. Someone who is aware of bad things the French have done. Clearly we should blindly listen to him and bash the French.
oh wait. Maybe we should consider that any number of countries and their people have done ill-advised things and that doesn’t mean they are devoid of merit.
FWIW, hh, being myself of french descent, I’d much rather be French than share any genes with you.
And as for “find your own damned cite”, anyone who’d spent a fucking HOUR in GD knows that shit don’t fly any better than a duck with no wings.
happyheathen… don’t even try that shit with us. You were never distinguishing “between the actions of the government of a country and the actions of individual citizens/subject/whatever of a country.”
You were and are just being a bigoted little ass-wipe with understanding of history and culture like a third grader, and the social abilities of a rhino.
P’tit con minable vas!
Sparc
y’all don’t need to listen to me.
just bash the French 
is googlefish failing, or are may of you trying to type french without knowing the language?
hh, before you go trying to insult people who know colloquial French, you might want to work on your own ability with the English language. Stupid little shit. People like you make me glad I don’t go to GD often…
“Hey, let’s ignore the fact that I couldn’t debate my way out of a wet paper bag if it were being held upside down!”
Va te faire foutre avec une vache morte et sa mammelle salle.
ouch iampunha! lol maybe we shouldn’t be slinging insults if not everyone can understand them, though I do find them rather amusing meself Don’t get much French around here and I just soak it up!
And yes, French public policy isn’t always the best but hey, a lot of the French know that. As far as I’m aware, there were many of the French who weren’t happy about Chirac doing the nuclear testing in the pacific and were protesting.
Hell, I don’t like a lot of america’s policies. I’m a democrat and disagree quite vociferiously with Ashcroft and Bush on many issues. A country’s policies are not its people, and unfortunately France just came out of a very unfortunate election where many people felt like they had no choice…it was vote conservative or vote fascist.
So I don’t believe that public policy is a valid argument for the personal temperament of the people…individuals are almost always more varied and interesting than the overall generalization.
btw, the dubbing got quite interesting…I could actually tell you, if I heard a particular dubber’s voice, that that was Mel Gibson’s French voice (and it isn’t half bad, as far as dubbing goes I suppose). Haven’t heard Jerry Lewis’ though.
Good point, Sivalensis, re: people not understanding things. I had forgotten that it was a general board rule not to post things in languages other than English lest we make life difficult for the mods. And though I’m pretty sure the intent of my (rather simplistic and blunt) sentence is easy enough to see with a trip to babelfish, A) mods shouldn’t have to be doing that and B) there’s nothing for colloquial French in terms of Babelfish.
In short: hh, you are cordially invited to go fuck yourself with a dead cow and her dirty tit. I couldn’t think of the French words for “diseased, purulent maggot-filled underbelly of a leorpus yak” and quite frankly you’re not worth the trip to babelfish.
Sigh. Once again I fail to preview. There is no French word, it is my guess, for leorpus, especially since it is not a word in any language (AFAIK). I meant (duh) leprous.
No doubt happyheathen will find this riotously amusing and claim some small victory. But I’m not an idjit, so I guess I win:)
lmao hmmm…I think that would be:
Vas te faire foutre avec les mammelles pourries et plein des asticots d’un yak lépreux
That was fun! grin Given, it’s not exact since french isn’t my first language, so it might sound weird to a french person. But I’ve never had to translate words like that before
ah, vulgarity as an educational tool.
ain’t life grand…
What’s the matter, forming an actual argument too difficult, so you need to pick on something? Sounds like fun.
Ah…blind bigotry as a motivational tool.
Ain’t life grand…
Hey, that was kinda fun.
So, hh, do you actually believe any of what is spewing forth from your mouth? If you weren’t so poor at debating, I’d think you’re the guy behind taggert. Now, he was a master at it.
ever try to form an argument about
? I don’t think Taggert could do it.
Still waiting for an example of my extending the action of an individual to condemn the entire country.
(also confirmation of the direction travel of the guns on the maginot line, for that matter)
for now, though, the opposing side seems to be busy thinking of witty vulgarities.
they must be having another of those “french moments”…
When you say “the french” you are bashing a whole group of people based on what a few have done.
Jesus fucking Christ, dude, you make me ashamed to be an American.
Where’s that sandwich de steak hache avec French fried potatoes garnish?
God DAMN, the service around here.
Garcon!
GARCON!
“Still waiting for an example of my extending the action of an individual to condemn the entire country.”
You “cited” Chirac’s actions and then said “hey let’s bash the French.” In other words, read your own fucking posts, oh he of the reading comprehension and memory of a dead sloth.
If you need anything more obvious than that I suggest you contact your resident five-year-old.
::rushes in with a plate of burned steak and wet potatoes::
