America continues to slip

First it was not being the most violent nation and now this.

French tourists are the worst in the world, coming across as penny-pinching, rude and terrible at languages, according to a new survey.


Oh where, oh where are the days of the ugly American? How low we have fallen.

I love France and I love the French.

When I was in France last year, it was undoubtedly one of the best experiences I have enjoyed in my life.

How the French act when they are out and about is kind of an unknown to me though admittedly.

I met a few that were over while in teh DR in May and they were likable sorts as well.

I'm not sure if I give much merit to pop-polls anyway though.

I like visiting the US and although I know most tourist killings from Canada happen there, I'm not going to stop going.
And for sure, I'd go back to France in a heartbeat. lol

fuckin canucks eh?

The few French and French-Canadian people I know personally are some of the nicest people I've ever met.

France and Britain go way, way back... They both need to pull those large bags of historical happenings out of their respective asses and put all that behind them already... but that will probably take another 300 years.

Hatred begets hatred, my friend...

But wait, if transitivity applies here, then you must hate me as well. Not that there's anything wrong with that. :)
