Aaaaaand that shows how seriously New York takes security these days.
I mean, what's the Brooklyn Bridge anyway, right?


I liked the doom music too. Catchy!

A serious question for once....

Why are yanks always ****ting on the French?
Without them, it is arguable that you would not have a country...

School me please..

And vice versa.

From the frenchies I have met, the contempt is fairly mutual, and generally friendly.

I think the French cop sh*t from pretty much everyone except maybe the Italians?
Personally I think they are fine, and their manners were impeccable when I was in France.

I thought the Irish invented boats and America was discovered by the poor Italian who begged Spain. Anyway the Irish made the USA have leverage not the Welches grape soda or the scotch tape it harvests. Our talk is English and our trees grow straight as our treaties and taller then the Canadians. Cotton is picked around the Christmas holiday and made or sent overseas for sails, hence Christmas Sale...

It's goddamn "texas toast" you pinko bastard. We invented it, along with pizza and nascar. You can thank the UNITED STATES of TEXAS except for the brown people for your freedom. No need to thank me personally though, cuz we all know that freedom isn't free and you'll never take away my guns!

Front Range, dude...
Mainly because Americans, the whole lot of us being mixed breeds of many countries who conveniently forget where they came from as soon as they get here (Unless it benefits them financially...) will never admit to owing a debt to any country. Many Patriots™ come lately hate on France because of their limited involvement in Bushs little wars, which I have no problem with whatsoever. A country that has been devastated by as many wars as badly as France has gets a free pass from me...that and what PSP said.

Trying too hard, unlike the French Govt during WWII (exception taken for the French Resistance of course).

I have no idea where I am
If you have ever eaten anything from a restaurant other than fast food then you have probably benefited from this:



Also, if the Puritans had their way, there would be no French Kissing.

Sort of hard to hate on a country that offered up those two cultural advancements.

The french horn and first man on the moon was french kissed by his french fry.
I figured it out... you type in English, copy/paste it into Google translate, pick a random language, then copy/paste back into English, then repeat a few times in other languages, then you come here and paste the results.

BTW the French are assholes. Plain and simple. It doesn't matter how pleasant you are with them, they are just a bunch of dicks.

They eat food that should kill them in a week but they live forever and I can't stand anyone more arrogant than myself. My parents were nice people then did a bit of traveling and came back to Oz hating Gypsies and the French.

French should get the incoming wall thing when the walls close in all around and we'll call it new England after the playing field is level and the people are gone. Canada gets the same we'll name it little America.
