Awww... Love you too

Being Canadian does not make you French. Just like being Manitoban does not make me Ukrainian.

As we all have to learn from the third book in the His Dark materials trilogy, the only world we shall prefer, and the only one we can live in, is our own world

Ummm... do you think you could do without the marketing? That being said, I better get off my lazy ass and finish reading the Amber Spyglass.

Sure I could:

Why bother finding out which country is better, or for those perverts, finding out which has better women ( Which in reality, we shall never know ) when we could do so much better out of our life?

Yep..Just vote your own country and shut up.



Now read that book =)

i can care less what the hell people call them, as long as there isnt too much salt.

French Fries < Chips in every regard...

The second look tastier, like the kind they serve at places other than fast-food joints. I tend to call those "chips" anyway, and fries are those pitiful things served at the drive-thru.

Yes, Sir! (that's supposed to be a salute...)

French fries are disgusting anyway compared to the belgian ones.

Belgians are shocked if you tell them we call them French fries.

Oh yeah, I voted France. They won the Crimean War!

Yet another pointless pole...

Strasburg never strunk me as a very French-sounding name for a place.

Alsace-Lorraine belongs to Deutchland and you dirty Franks know it!

T'is almost time to celebrate. I'll prep the fireworks and the barbareque pit. Could someone go to the store and buy some winter lagers or wheat bach?

Dude, Alsace Lorraine and most of West Germany are french. Germans should return to the teutnic forests of Prusia where they belong, the germano-celtic gauls own everything up to the Elbe.

Why are you whining about Dunkirk Napoleon?
"Operation Dynamo" as it t'was called was the reason why Britain remained a major player in WW2. Lets say you're facing a dragon in a cave, and have two choices.
1) Stay and find out that you taste good with ketchup.
2) Run back through a tunnel, find a bazooka and return to blast the dragon's head off.

338,000 soldiers were rescued during that operation, and that's a damn sight better than leaving them to die.

I'm using it to portray the equal ignorance of frechmen who accuse the British of cowardice and abandoning comrades at arms on the field of battle and of Brits and Americans who accuse the French of "running away" (when for the 6 weeks of Fall Rot and Fall Gelb the Wehrmacht lost the largest amount of men per unit of time as in the entire war.

This seems a far more valid point of view,from what I understand it was not a case of French cowardice as much as dreadful leadership and a hugely outdated strategy. The British were in a similar situation but because of Dunkirk were given the time and opportunity to regroup, resounding defeat turned to advantage you might say.

Why did France surrender?
Why did Britain scarper?
Why did the yanks show up late?

There were reasons...

Well, only one thing is inexcusable :

Why was Germany allowed to exist in 1919? They should have listened to Clemenceau....
