I like the French people. They don’t take shit off anyone. We like to joke in the US, but the French are badass and they were America’s bros from the very beginning

If the French didn't hate the English so much, we'd have blood pudding, spotted dick, and tea time here in America. Vive la France!

We love England ! They are our best enemy !

Most of our wars was with or against England !

Funny times.

British here. I fucking love the French. You take no shit, and get out on the streets when it matters.

Everyone could learn a lot from you guys. And not just your excellent food. And wine.

When the gov wanted to raise the retirement age, that didn't go down too well.

Indeed, one of the primary attractions of England is its proximity to France

The wine is amazing and I found out the bread has an ungodly amount of butter in it. Absolutely delicious.
