French Culture is like saying RNZAF




"The French are a smallish, monkey-looking bunch and not dressed any better,
on average, than the citizens of Baltimore. True, you can sit outside in
Paris and drink little cups of coffee, but why this is more stylish than
sitting inside and drinking large glasses of whiskey I don't know."
--- P.J O'Rourke (1989)


There was a Frenchman, an Englishman and Claudia Schiffer sitting together
in a carriage in a train going through Provence. Suddenly the train went
through a tunnel and as it was an old style train, there were no lights in
the carriages and it went completely dark. Then there was a kissing noise
and the sound of a really loud slap. When the train came out of the tunnel,
Claudia Schiffer and the Englishman were sitting as if nothing had happened
and the Frenchman had his hand against his face as if he had been slapped
there. The Frenchman was thinking: 'The English fella must have kissed
Claudia Schiffer and she missed him and slapped me instead.' Claudia
Schiffer was thinking: 'The French fella must have tried to kiss me and
actually kissed the Englishman and got slapped for it.' And the Englishman
was thinking: 'This is great. The next time the train goes through a tunnel
I'll make another kissing noise and slap that French bastard again.'

Funnily enough the people of Hartlepool on the East coast of England thought this when a French warship was wrecked just off shore. The only survivor was a small domesticated monkey. The simple people of Hartlepool thought all Frenchmen looked like this and so held the monkey and tried him as a spy. He wouldn't tell them anything so he was hanged by the neck until dead.

People of Hartlepool are still embarrased about this to this day :rofl:
