Hey got some funny French jokes.
Q. How many French does it take to defend Paris?
A. No one knows, it's never been done.
I saw a French Army rifle for sale on Ebay today. It said, "Great condition. Never fire. Dropped once.
And finally I want you fellow HLPers to fill these ones in.
1. Going to war with the French is like....
2. Going to war without the French is like....
Going to war without the French is like going to war with the French.
-
hahaha.
-
Woop de doo:rolleyes:
-
i'll have a crack at number 2: *ahem*
"going to war without the french is like going deer hunting without your accordion"
-
Going to war with the French is like going swimming with Michael Barrymore. No-one's really sure what happened but someone died and a popular entertainer has moved to Germany.
Going to war without France is like boxing with one arm. You've got nothing to throw in the way of your opponent's attacks.
-
So does this mean we can kill Iraq?
:D
-
yes
-
Going to war without the French is like World War 2
Going to war with the French is like Vietnam
Can we drop the petty cracks at the French, please? If it was about people with turbans, this'd be closed.
-
Going to war with Al Qaeda is like sticking a "Blow the **** out of me" sign on the whitehouse.
Going to war without Al Qaeda is like admitting you're attacking Iraq for it's oil.
-
Going to war with the UN is like sharing oil
Going to war without the UN is like keeping all the oil for yourself
-
Going to war with the UN is like having a pardon already arranged.
Going to war without the UN is like.....err....going to war with the UN.

Sounds like somebody forgot about Napoleon :rolleyes:

Wait! The French don't always surrender! We, uh... had an angry midget 400 years ago! He didn't surrender!
Oh, wait, he did. That was why he went into exile twice. Still!
Just foolin', y'all. Don't make me eat sparrow tongues or something.

My point exactly! The fact is how many countries could have produced such an angry little man? ;)

Why when France is talked about only Napoleon is mentioned. What about William the Conqueror (also the bastard)? He bloody took over England and made it his own. Look at the English language and you can see a lot of french in it. Doubt me... any word that ends in "ion" is french in origin.
-
"Ion" itself is not French.
-
not Ion... -ion. Constitution... combustion... etc IS.
-
And at any rate, I just remembered- Napoleon was Corsican.
So much for that.
-
Yup... the best French general was William the Bastard. He was Norman.

French Fries...anyone?:nervous:

Actually, a great number of them are taken directly from Latin without mediation through French. French was very formative in the development of English, of course, but the above statement is patently false.
-
William the Conquerer took over england, but he was assimilated into the culture. Actually a good thing, because we almost took over all of France during the 1600's.
-
So, having fun all of you? I have no doubt about it now, the level of HLP has dropped right into the sewers.
It stinks.

Meh, without the French America might've had a hard time getting independence as fast as they did.
-
Well, i'm growing a bit tired of all that french racism going on on these boards, and I'm seriously thinking about leaving this damn community who can now only be defined by its level of agressivity ( which is going through the roof ). why wasting my time for a bunch of dumbasses who obviously hate french, and, so, hate me by the same way?
-
Hey, I do NOT hate French. Its mainly the Americans here that hate 'm. We had a news report on the 6 o' clock news here about that. A Dutch reporter went into an American grocery store (NY) and asked "normal" ppl about the French.
General awnsers:
They suck.
They're cowards.
Boycott all French products!
I'll buy the Dutch Gouda cheese instead of french Camenbert now!

:nod:
Its quite :ick how people can be so self-centered, egocentric and deaf. The French disagree on something and suddebnly they are the bad guys. The US and pro-US'ers have an attitude like this: "Do as we say or we'll **** you over with propaganda and insults".
I think the French can be proud for having their own opinion and not giving in to the intimidation of the US.
anywayz, I'm also fed up with nationality bashing.
-
Hey, I don't hate the French, I think their military is rather lacking in these recent years and thats probably why they want to back off on Iraq - in addition to probably numerous economic and or morality issues. But you gotta admit, some of these jokes are rather funny and are far cleaner than some of the anti-american jokes that have been flung around this community.

well no, I don't find this funny, if you wonder why I don't make jokes about peopes nationality, it's because the one who is the target NEVER finds it funny to be mocked up. And here the tone is not of jokes. And ****, I don't give a damn, have fun, you all.

that's 1300 and 1400. By 1453 the French had kicked the English out of France proper, except for Calais, which changed hands somewhere in the 1600 iirc.

I actually only laughed at an0n's picture and made a comment about Napoleon and William.
Mainly, all the anti-US sentiment is annoying people in the US and they are retaliating against it and other things.

everyone *****es about the US. there's one or two here that love bush, a few that don't care, and the rest hate him, thus they say they hate the US, when they don't even live here or have never been here. Now you don't see me whining about it. Why? Because I don't really care. If a bunch of ignorant people want to say something that is incorrect, their stupidity is enough to let me ignore them.

I think I'm willing to freely admit my minds weakness. I am against war on Iraq, against Bush, and the way he's pressuring the UN, and yet, due to the way they're painted on the news, I can't see France and Germany as the good guys in all this. Unlike the vast majority of the western population however, I'm willing to admit that my not dislike but lack of likeiness towards them is nothing more than the product of negative news reports, and predjudiced views from other sources.
That and the fact that ever since about September 11, international politics have pissed me off so much that I've all but decided to hate every country except Australia and Nauru.

You have a point there. The US receives far more bashing around here than any other country due to its being the biggest, but few complain when that happens, and most americans, myself included, take it with the same humor as anything else. Being truly "offended" by such things (or anything, for that matter) is just as stupid as posting them in the first place.

Again, like with the French, I do NOT hate America. I hate their policy. They have propaganda all over the place (Army man candy :rolleyes: ). Everything thety say is right in their mind and nobody else can do a damn thing about that. Not even listen to what another has to say.
I don't want to bash the US. Not at all. Just their policy.

These kinda threads shouldn't be allowed anymore, because they only lead to flame wars and bashing each others country's. It used to be fun here until this political **** and links to news pages where france or any other country has been bashed because they don't argee with the US.
Just ****ing close this ****.
-
I'll remember that next time someone brings up anti-us/bush thread. :)

Do you guys wounder why about 90% of the world hates US? Simple, you killed more people than any other nation in the world. Ok Maybe Germany killed more, but lets start to count:
1. Millions in Japan when you threw the first two nukes. Just a note. They were almost all civillians.
2. Thousonds, maybe millions in Vietnam
3. 250 000 in the Gulf War. Correct me if I am wrong
4. A few thousonds in the civil war on Balkan (1990-1995)
5. 2 maybe 3 thousond innocent civillians arround Yugoslavia in 1999 bombing (including both Serbs and Albanians (oh yeah you were deffending them :rolleyes: ) ) But there were mostly Serbs.
And who knows how many others got killed. And now you wounder why the world hates you?
No serriously, I don't really have anything against American people, but your government sucks big time. Do you think that the world likes to be controlled by bushes administration?

Hey, I might not have your opinion but everyone is entitled to their own opinion right? Well, the US policy makes it seem like that is no longer the case.
Ow, and I only admire someone who stands with his/her opinion. But there must always be room for reason. :) (That was just a random statement)
-

They don't really have a choice. :D But like I said in that other thread, of course we are evil, as is every other sensible country in the world. The US government does what any other government does; they want to see the nation as a whole prosper, and this sometimes calls for the downfall of the other competing nations. In the end, every country wants to conquer the world in some way or another, so it becomes an issue of who is more skillful at it, and US has been doing fairly well so far.
One other thing: civilians are military targets and militants are civilian targets, since each one helps the other, so any distinctions between the two are pointless.
Hey, I might not have your opinion but everyone is entitled to their own opinion right? Well, the US policy makes it seem like that is no longer the case.
Only if you have the power to enforce that opinion. Now US policy obviously only goes by American opinions, not worldwide opinions, and any government with half a brain would do the same thing. The rest of the world is opposing the US because they want to see its demise, and the same goes for why the US is not listening too much. I mean, taking the opinion of another nation at an equal level as your own is like asking Hussein if he would like to be attacked and adjusting your policy based on that. :p

Of course we are evil, as is every other sensible country in the world.
I suppose my country, Yugoslavia is also evil because we deffended ourselves from terrorists that were killing our people in masses on our own soil.
Yeah! I suppose you (Americans) think killing people is OK.

Why are you stereotyping "You americans" when only one of us said that? An over rational one at that. Haven't we been over stereotyping in Political debate threads?
And I'm curious to hear what all you haters think of say, mexico. They are murders right? Look what they did to South/Central America? I think they should all be put to death, no? Of course by Americans, one could assume you mean them too. :doubt:

No, you (former Yugoslavia, now Serbia & Montenegro) started to commit an act of Genocide on the Kosovo people. Of course, for a country with a history of ethnic cleansing, it's not entirely surprising that it would be considered 'ok' to slaughter innocent men, women and children.....
The bombing of Yugoslavia was quite simple - the world could not permit the massacring of an innocent populace with no real form of defence, so NATO stopped in. Simple.
I don't agree with this whole war thing because the reasons given are utter garbage - the US / UK* reasons change daily, and ar very rarely consistent with the actions and opinions of either the population (at least in the uk), or the majority of the UN. If a war is going to be over weapons of mass destruction, surely the inspectors ent to find and destroy those weapons should be fully supported and informed, not immediately decried?
Not to mention the dictatorial stance of the US towards those who oppose its stance - threatening punitive trade sanctions against France / Germany, for example, for expressing their opinions - as is their democratic right as a free country (the very rights the US / UK are claiming to be defending) . And using their financial muscle to influence the smaller nations on the UN security council (including, bizarrely, the prospect of cheaper weapons for the likes of Bulgaria and Chile).
If the UN supports war with a resolution, fair enough. Otherwise, it's against the will of the democratic world (and China as well, however much that matters), and is thus surely wrong (and punishable by sanctions).
*for UK, read 'Tony Blair'. I've yet to meet anyone who wants a war at any cost.
However, I do object to the 'hijacking' of some of these anti-war marches by the pro-Palestine brigade, who for a long time have seemed to be more fuelled by some bizarre hatred of Israel - especially as this whole debate has nothing to do with that situation.

That is a pretty fair comment.... unfortunately it's the man at the very top that worries me, but that's another debate.
I find it pretty damning on those congressmen that they are even suggesting it, though.

Colin Powel calling the French people cowards on their own radio station sounds insulting not pressuring to me. You don't insult people if you want their support.
If there is UN support, then that is one thing. However this 'pressuring' is an insult to the US' allies as their citizens.

Yah, cause you know by insulting someone, you're forcing them? He's not required to like the French. If calling them cowards gets the to show everyone otherwise, it IS pressuring.
And as for the veto, if they do, the US goes in alone, as they've said all along.

And the French say worse things about us. I find it rediculous in this society you can't speak your opinion without fear of offending someone. Everyone is way too wishy washy. I mean the canadian school removing the word "gun" from a test? Come one get a grip people.

They can use the veto if they want to... Do remember that in the realm of diplomacy what comes around goes around. They won't. They also need their ties with Iraq.

Depends on what you mean by "care." There were some 5000 arbitrary casualties and several billion dollars of damage, which is certainly a setback, but it is not exactly irrecoverable from either. I once again point you to the words of that Vasudan pilot: no sorrow but vengeance. :D And I have given reasons here before about why civilians are military targets; they obviously help the military survive by keeping the economy running and a lot of other things, and without the civilians the military could not survive, so if you attack civilians, you are by extension attacking the military. (and conversely, if you attack military targets, you are indirectly harming civilian targets as well) All wars are fought with this in mind, which is why the civilian casualties are always there. Now you have not given any reasons at all, not even bad ones, for your contention in your statement. Therefore, I say that your statement is the stupidest I have heard in ages. :D
I suppose my country, Yugoslavia is also evil because we deffended ourselves from terrorists that were killing our people in masses on our own soil.
Yeah! I suppose you (Americans) think killing people is OK.
Absolutely correct. Every surviving country in the world must have killed their enemies, after labeling them "terrorists" and whatever else, and those that did not fight back were overrun and do not exist today. So either you have that everybody is evil or nobody is evil; take your pick, because it is relative and thus doesn't matter. Besides, Yugoslavia is hardly the best example for your argument. :p
I don't want to see the US's demise.
And thats exectly my point. The US doesn't listen. They are deaf. And deaf nations are also often blind as they blindly follow their own self-centered thoughts.
Your government certainly does though, regardless of what country you live in (other than the US), since if they did not go by only their own interests, they would not be around today. Of course the US follows its own self-centered thoughts, as does every other nation in existence, because the ideas of any other nation are designed to help that nation only, not the US. They would be stupid countries indeed if they worried about the thoughts of the other countries for only the others' sake. For example, the EU is saying that they don't want a war with Iraq, and that is because they want to see the next 9/11 as soon as possible and as a result, stop the US from growing even larger at least momentarily so that they will have a higher chance at themselves becoming superpowers in the future. And there is nothing wrong with this; every nation by its very nature of existence eventually wants to rule the world, and that obviously involves dissolving the other competing countries. This is simple statecraft, and the nation that masters it comes out on top.

Good point :) Well I think *my government* is smarter then all the other EU governments. :D They are against war but to avoid boycott from the US they allow that the US ships military assets through the Netherlands (Biggest harbor in the world :S, 3rd and 7th biggest airport in Europe, railroads) but they try not to enter the war. Besides having military assests in Turkey and Afganistan :p.
Hehe, our Dutch bats will be everywhere soon and will take over the world! MUHAHAHAHA!
I really can't care less what the Americans do anymore. If they think its right... well go ahead. As long as your don't drag us in with you.

No, you (former Yugoslavia, now Serbia & Montenegro) started to commit an act of Genocide on the Kosovo people. Of course, for a country with a history of ethnic cleansing, it's not entirely surprising that it would be considered 'ok' to slaughter innocent men, women and children.....
Genocide you say? Listen here Aldo, Albanians have killed and forced hunderds of thousonds of Serbs out of Kosovo. By the way, did you know that the Albanian terrorists (calling themselves KLA) slaughtered 100 times more Serb civillians than the number of Albanians that died in the conflict? Of course you didn't know. Your media didn't tell you anything about it because you were taught to hate the Serbs from the start. And a second thing, the special forces were send to Kosovo to deffend Serbian villages, our cultural and historical heritage (monasteries, churches, monuments etc..). Now tell me, what would you UKers or Amers do if you were let's say endangered by someone else in the similar way? Simple you would send your special units (FBI, CIA, National Guard, etc..) to kill them. No?
Why not? You don't respect anyone elses human rights anyway.
By the way, your kill count is thousonds of times greater than our own so I supoose you should be proud of that. Good job lad!

Venom: Look man. If you are going to leave HLP dont to it cause of this. Every person (or most people) have a strong bias (a negative one) towards some country or another. Imagine if you had been born in say Libya. You'de never hear the end of it. Theres always someone that has something bad to say about your country. Just learn to live with it and move on. That said, I still think that since this thread is titled "French Jokes" everything that was said within was meant in the spirit of jest.
stop the fussin' an' a feudin'

You're off topic people. It is suppose to be about French Jokes not politics.

Genocide you say? Listen here Aldo, Albanians have killed and forced hunderds of thousonds of Serbs out of Kosovo. By the way, did you know that the Albanian terrorists (calling themselves KLA) slaughtered 100 times more Serb civillians than the number of Albanians that died in the conflict? Of course you didn't know. Your media didn't tell you anything about it because you were taught to hate the Serbs from the start. And a second thing, the special forces were send to Kosovo to deffend Serbian villages, our cultural and historical heritage (monasteries, churches, monuments etc..). Now tell me, what would you UKers or Amers do if you were let's say endangered by someone else in the similar way? Simple you would send your special units (FBI, CIA, National Guard, etc..) to kill them. No?
Why not? You don't respect anyone elses human rights anyway.
By the way, your kill count is thousonds of times greater than our own so I supoose you should be proud of that. Good job lad!
When the IRA launched campaigns in mainland UK in the 80s (and before), we did not go out to exterminate Catholic Northern Irish. In fact, the Army was originally sent into N.Ireland to protect the Catholic populaiton from rioting Protestants IIRC.
There is no excuse for genocide. The Yugoslav army was sent to exterminate a civillian populace - the ultimate soft target - and NATO responded in order to stop that. Whilst the NATO response was underwhelming due to the political need to avoid casualties, it did succeed in stopping this. Clear evidence of war crimes committed against the Kosova Albanians has been found alreayd, including mass graves.
Now, you're not going to change your opinion, nor am I mine. So I'll drop this if you drop it, eh? Past is past and all that - and Yugoslavia isn;t even Yugoslavia anymore.....

Yeah. I`ve heard that the UN has stuffed it up in Kosovo (as per usual) The simple fact is there are very few UN peacekeeping attempts that haven`t seriously messed it up.
That said Serbia only has itself to blame for it's bad image in the west. Your countries leader is currently on trial for war crimes committed in Bosnia. When the west saw that another part of the former Yugoslavia also looked like it would be ethnically cleansed they decided to act quickly rather than let it turn into the mess everyone made in Bosnia.
Unfortunately the UN peacekeeping effort has protected the ethnic Albanians and not the Serbs in the area. That is a very sad failure on the part of the west but the sound of serbs complaining about ethnic cleasing doesn`t tug on my heart strings very hard considering that in Bosnia (and in Croatia IIRC) the Serbs were doing exactly the same thing to another population.

If something like this pops up again, I'll dispense some indiscriminate bannings. If I'm feeling like being nice they might even be temporary.
