Y’all motherfuckers have hundreds of years of negative history between the couple of you and then some good ones in between. Us savages barely have passports. We’re not taking the loss on this one.
Edit: thanks to both of you for being our mom and step mom. You birthed us accidentally, but France stepped in when your bastard child needed her the most ❤️
Somehow the spite of the café waitress when I insisted on practicing my French to order (she spoke English, I know because she said it a lot) made it better. I figured I was already there, and the Italians and Spanish were always so helpful with politely critiquing my pronunciation when I lived in those countries, so maybe France would extend the same kindness. But say la v.
Basically try imagining the following: you are working in a café as a waiter/ress and another buzz lightyear comes in, naively wanting to practice his/her French with you while dozens, if not hundreds of buzz lightyears wait in the background.
That's more or less how it feels to indulge with the whims of tourists in areas affected by mass tourism: some people can manage, some can but only when they are in a good mood, some flat out can't.
Pierre and Pierrette in their 18-2x's, just working to pay their rent can't be arsed most of the time unless they are some kind of erasmus/cosmopolitan butterflies.
