View Full Version : Terrorist Alert in France!


tek
11-02-2004, 06:34 PM
AP and UPI reported that the French Government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "run" to "hide." The only two higher levels in France are "surrender" and "collaborate." The raise was precipitated by the recent fire which destroyed one of Frances' white flag factories, disabling their military.

"The only two notable French contributions to worldwide culture/cuisine are their fries and toast."

I know this is supposed to be a "joke" thread - but... are you serious?

And FWIW those "french" fries are not french in the first place! You can start ordering 'em again without feeling like a traitor. (They were originally belgian.)

(Ooops, that's another country that gave the finger to the Iraq invasion! Back to freedom fries...)

"Forgot about the kiss."

You mean you don't even know about french culture? Should go out more, man.

goldcowboy

OF COURSE this entire post was tongue in cheek. And I do realize that french fries are much too bourgeois for the French. Give me a little credit, man. This just reinforces my conviction that liberals were born without a humor gene.

I truly hate the French. They are pompous for no reason. They lose 50,000 of their soldiers in Viet Nam in one WEEK...They wear berets, drink lattes and listen to horrible music...They like JERRY LEWIS /images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Personal anecdote. My girlfriend and I go to a French restaurant in suburban Minneapolis a few years ago. The waiter brings us our microscopic portions. Later it's time to order dessert. I ordered banana brunch cake. The waiter, obviously unimpressed with my selection sniffs "Oui Oui, banana brunch cake" as if I told him to eat shjt...

utter misuse of the word "bourgeois."

[/ QUOTE ]

From Webster's Dictionary: "bourgeois: relating to, or characteristic of the townsman or of the social middle class". That's exactly what I meant when I used the word, because the French all consider themselves members of the upper class (no matter how poor they may be) and would never stoop so low as to consume a "common" food such as french fries. So where, pray tell, is the misuse?

Because the French are the originators not only of the word, but of the social conception of a middle-class. The vast majority of French view themselves, rightly, as bourgeois.

Not to mention the negative connotations associated with the word in common parlence, the implication of your original post was sourly confused.

I'm really confused. A well known moron (with "two Masters Degrees...just ask him") critically misused a word, because he didn't know its definition and was ignorant of its connotations both in its native tongue and in English. What, are you saying French people are smarter? Is that how you can tell who they are? Because I would heartily disgree with that. I'm as xenophobic as the next little trailerpark monkey, but I do try to approximate correct usage of English words.

for big things, you need lots of microscopes.


Whereas for you, one proves all too insufficient. SEM just aren't powerful enough to discern your subatomic particle.

Stuck up is right.

All my wagering for the month (incl. American elections) is going to hell.

And that's no joke.

"Personal anecdote. My girlfriend and I go to a French restaurant in suburban Minneapolis a few years ago. The waiter brings us our microscopic portions. Later it's time to order dessert. I ordered banana brunch cake. The waiter, obviously unimpressed with my selection sniffs "Oui Oui, banana brunch cake" as if I told him to eat shjt...I truly hate the French."

Strictly between us: How much did you pay? /images/graemlins/cool.gif

I bet you paid a lot. Right? So. Who's the sucker in the story, tell me, you or the phoney-French waiter?

"[The French] lose 50,000 of their soldiers in Viet Nam in one WEEK."

Yeah, which is evidence of cowardice, I guess. Any time an army loses 50,000 men in battle, it's evidence of ...cowardice.

So losing ten times as much is evidence of ten times more cowardice! Right? Go up to some Vietnam Vets and tell 'em the news.

"They wear berets, drink lattes and listen to horrible music."

What movie are you watching? French wear berets much less than Americans wear cowboy hats. Of all the silly cliches! And the music they listen to is mostly American and English pop, so you have a point there -- it's mostly horrible!

As to their coffee, you should know that French and Italian coffees are the best in the world. But you're free to stick to yer Starbucks slop. (Oh and how much do you pay for coffee in Starbucks? ...How much is it again? ROTFLMAO)

"..They like JERRY LEWIS."

What's the matter with you, you don't like Jerry Lewis?? Not even with Dean Martin? /images/graemlins/cool.gif Jerry Lewis had brilliant moments - he was the archetype for Jim Carey. And he never made a banana brunch cake joke in his life.

"From Webster's Dictionary: "bourgeois: relating to, or characteristic of the townsman or of the social middle class". That's exactly what I meant when I used the word, because the French all consider themselves members of the upper class (no matter how poor they may be)"

OK, Inchoate Hand is clearly drunk out of his skull but you are not exactly walking a straight line here!..

I mean, the upper class is entirely different from the middle class, so what are you going on about?

And you should also realize that "bourgeois" designates mores more than anything else (i.e. Someone can be rich or a baron and still be deemed to be like a "bourgeois" in his thinking, which means to be conservative, a little reactionary, a prude, suspicious of innovations, artists and scientists, etc. Ring a bell? /images/graemlins/smile.gif And "petit bourgeois" is worse.)

OK that does it. You are much too mean-spirited and condescending. Just for that, I'm not going to share my french fries with you. And the invitation to a mountain oyster feast is hereby rescinded.

You gloat because this is one of the two modes of thinking you are capable of. (The other is being angry mad outta yer skull.)

It is so easy to get to you and to manipulate you, that it starts feeling like child abuse.

So, for a week or so, enjoy your chosen idiot at the White House. I'll be back after that and put you in that other mode.

Actually, it was on an expense account of a friend. The waiter was French, but I think the restaurant was phoney, because it was in the Embassy Suites in Bloomington /images/graemlins/laugh.gif
