sew a canadian flag to your backpack, everyone will like you then

French people will look down on you if you're not french. And don't try to speak french. They'll just patronize you. Assholes.

I agree with skibum, put Canada flags on your backpacks, they'll like the whole bunch of you a lot better because Canada told the U.S. to shove it in Iraq. Oh, and the french can be jerks so if you think they're talkin' trash, tell them to 'Mange la merde!'

 
if i, for one, ever catch an american with a canadian flag on their backpack i will personally BEAT THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF YOU! I promise you that.

think i'm joking? try me!

 
dude, u couldnt beat me up, ur canadian. haha sorry bout that, that just slipped out. thats probably why everyone hates us.

I HATE MOTHAFUCKIN AMERICANS!!!!. There you go dude. No just jk man, i presonally like the states and americans, but french ppl tend to generalise americans to the american government(that they dont support of course) and think theyre better than them , which sux and is completely dumb, but its pretty much the same trend everywhere in Europe. You will see this especially when you go to small town or villages. You should seriously put a canadian flag on your backpack or sumthin, I've also heard about americans being unwelcome in france recently. Americans also are the tourists that bring in the most money, which is just another senseless reason for french ppl to hate americans.

i went to spain on a school trip and stopped in france for my connecting flight, the french people with the exception of the stewardeses (cause they had to be) were kinda assholes, spain was very friendly though, there was no instances where anyone gave us shit, people actually bought us drinks and tried to speak english to us, i was suprised how accomidating they were, you hardly ever seepeople back at home being that nice to tourists

i was gonna try to blend in by wearing a shirt with a french flag on it and a beret, while carrying around a bagette. u think that would work?? jk i'd get my ass beat quick.

nah theyd prolly just spit on you or something, the only french person i saw that looked they could beat someone down was some 6'6 chick in army fatigues, she was scary

the first time I heard about ppl wearing beret with a baguette under their arm was when I moved to canada, so yes, you would get the shit beat out of you and ppl will just be like wtf what a homo.

My experiences in France as an american is that they treat you very kindly, they don't patronize you if you don't know their language, they are just like everyday people who speak a different language. Thats all, but these are just my experiences from this Christmas, it might have drastically changed since then so don't take my word for it.

Most of them will think that they are better than you but just be nice and you will find some nice ones

 
Just wear a shirt showing that Bush is the devil, then you will be worshipped as a god.

I think a lot of people share that view on Americans, just to fill you in. In most countries you go they will dislike you because you're American.

It's the majority of ignoran Americans that give everyone the bad vibe, you may not, but you can thank them for the reputation that they give the rest of America.

Too fast for love
 
^ But don't you think that the French and others who hate Americans just because they are American is completely ignorant on their part?

^^yeah its totally stupid, you could definetely call it discrimination or racism. Ppl think they're smart because they follow Michael Moore's ideas (a fat victim of american fast food corporations), even tho they got no clue how most americans are nice and not stupid like their gvnmt(my opininon only).

Man travil anywhere in the world show that you are american and you will notice hate its just the rep your country has and for good reason to. Oh and if i catch you posing as a Canadian so you dont get spit at you will get alot worse like a shotgun to the face.

---------------

Is it something i said so fuck you to.
 
FUCK THE FRENCH. Just like in dumb and dumber - ' I dunno loyd, the french are assholes '

Going to war without the french is like going to war without your accordion. Theyre useless, they stink, and they have a big lightning rod in the middle of their capital.

>Out.

Welcome to Newschoolers. Now leave.

If you sew a Canadian flag to your pack I will personally fly to France and kick the shit out of you. Whatever happened to American pride? Why try and steal the reputation of respectful Canadians like myself, your country is fucked and no one likes you, live with it. What if I go to France with a Canadian flag on my backpack and someone thinks I'm an American because so many Americans sew Canadian flags to their pack?

Yes, DO NOT sew a Canadian flag on your backpack if you are from Canada.

Its a missconseption that French people hate Americans. Alot of them hate Bush and the war in Irak but not Americans. just go there you wont have any problems unless you have a T-shirt saying 'yay war in Irak' or 'go Bush'

just try not to be rude to people (not saying hi to a clerk or other profeddional when you enter store is considered rude)

 
yo yo yo guy, whutup? yo listen up. People hate americans, I hate americans. Yo guy, people dont care what YOU are like, guy, because no one cares about one person guy, its the fact that you are american guy, even if you went to save lives of people in 3rd world countries, guy, you woulkd still be hated, you fucking americans, giuy, always saying shiut like ':why do they hate ME, i never did anything?????' so ignorant. Its not the individual people care about it is the ideals in which the came about, guy. PS people dont give a shit whether or not you support the war in Iraq, they will still hate you guy. Think of this, i dont want to be all hippie'd out and shit guy, but just for the sake of proving a point, around 20,000 civilians (according to al jazeera the number is closer to 110,000 , not that 20,000 is acceptable) in Iraq are dead, innocent civilians, due to americans. Now what did those civilians do to the americans, guy? nothing, just like you did nothing for the world to hate you, now i could explain my point longer, guy, but i dont feel like it, so if u dont get ma vibe homie, then well its ok cause your american and i hate you, guy.

peace

whutup?

oh and yo guy, one more thing, i hope when your are in france and you walk into a store, where no one speaks english, and being an American, when you walk in and start speaking english, OBVIOUSLY making absolutley no effort to speak the native tongue, guy, that you get shot by someone who, like me, hates americans, no matter who they are, but just because they are from the US, guy.

peace

r u trying to sound american?? good job by the way. and why did u start shit anyway, i wasnt saying anything bad(except to that one canadian up there)

I ski at the crappiest hill ever...

 
What do you mean 'Are you trying to sound American?' G-dawg sounds like a retard. (No offense, actually it's chill.)Anyways dude, I wouldn't worry about it. No one's going to shoot you or spit on you. They might be snooty but it's like that for everyone. If you try to speak some french they'll really respect that. Oh, and french girls say they find an English accent in french to be really hot! What do you mean 'Are you trying to sound American?' G-dawg sounds like a retard.
