What do you have against French?
French are nice friends. You know that kind of friend that, when you do mistake, disagree with you and try to get some brain for you. He is unsuccssful but he would try.

BTW, as we all know, in WW2 the US waited much longer than the French before they got involved...

In fact, the Germans declared war on the US first

How about the Northern Irish?

In N. Ireland a son comes home running and starts shouting to his dad...

"Dad, dad, I finally found out love!!!"

"That's great son, with who?"

"With Peter!!!!"

"NO MY BOY HOW COULD YOU! He's catholic"


*ducks two tomatoes*
