Well generally my ancestors, being the sexy canadians they are, originated from the the Normandy area of France. Any darn dang way, in America, and no thanks to south park, I always get shit about being French or being canadian, and I always laugh it off because usually the jokes are funny and dont have derogatory intentions. Anywayz, I was in bio today, and I started mentioning how Germany had no successful olympic athletes (except for women's weightlifting) because generally their national specialties ranged from beer to sausage and then back to beer.
Well I just blew the roof off one second generation german girl, who was intently mad at my french ass for a good 20 minutes. Later in the day in philosophy class, we were discussing the ramifications of science being chosen as a "belief system" over religion, and I made a little jokey joke about organized religion, saying that in this day and age if jesus had a second coming he probably would be assassinated by the pope. Laughs all around of course, but then a german exchange student, adamantly catholic, questioned my conclusion. I mentioned that I wouldn't be surprised, he was a nazi youth and all, and that just pushed her right over the edge. She started talking about how her grandfather was a nazi youth, and that naziism was pushed onto her people, basically dodging the whole responsibility for the holocaust thing. (haha jk). In conclusion, I realized that I should be culturally sensitive about all countries, because even though in North America we love sarcasm and to joke around, some people have enough pride to take things seriously. I also learned that in terms of attractiveness for german people, its completely a hit and miss.

The french dont get to make fun of anyone
 
I thought it was pretty funny, people need to realize when others are saying something thats a complete joke
 
Dont worry I work with four Germans, and they're hilarious. They say that when they were in school, the curriculum barely covers any history in either of the Great Wars. Also the Germish don't understand sarcasm! Ha unless they are Bavarian!!
 
Im first generation german, you keep talking like that i'll throw your fucking ass in my oven even if your not a jew..

jk, but i will challenge you to a beer drinking contest ;-)
 
Ahhhhhh, fuggem. seriously. although i must admit, ive only met two germans and one wore a shirt that looked like this:

... dammit, i cant find one. let me try to explain. Black long sleeve button up. with blue and red tribal designs alternating with bright red and blue dragons. His name was Pascal and he was a prick.

....but this year there is a hot german exchange student. I feel so torn :(
 
Germans have kind of dominated international sport for decades, I dont know why they would take you seriously.

thanks for the lulz though
 
honestly, saying you wouldnt be surprised if she was part of the nazi youth was a dick move. probably shouldnt have done that..

on the other hand, props to whoever posted the french picture. gave me a good laugh
 
last year there was a foriegn exchange student from germany at our school and we always caled him a nazi and did the hand motion thing 'rounf him haha...... he didnt really care..... though his grandpa was a SS soldier......
 
I am constantly making fun of the germans, mainly because they always set themselves up for it, and partially because the exchange students in my school are really cool with it. For example, they ALWAYS team up with the italians in what they call football, (because the italians are all pretty good at it) but everyone makes jokes about the "dream team".
In capture the flag, it is a requirement for them to say "Cooler, 8 weeks" whenever they catch someone, and for that person to demand food and water from them, under the authourity of the Geneva convention. These rules are more enforced than the ones pertaining to sexual harasment.
 
oh my god people. i cant believe how mad some people are at this thread. people need to learn to laugh at them selve's, honestly. Like you guys are getting pissed off at him for acting like a douche when from what it sounds like people are douche to him alot. The world be a better place if people would shrug stuff off more often.

and that comment about the world wars was fucking stupid honestly one of the dumbest comments i have ever heard.

Im not even french so you cant say im being biased. i am a first generation canadian ( portuguese).

btw that whole beer to sausage to beer made me LOL
 
I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

haha yeah totally had to toss that in there...anyways, you may have crossed the line a wee bit but in all honesty, we really need to lighten up a bit. maybe the nazi comment was uncalled for. keep in mind the germans went through a ton of shit during world war 2 along with everyone else..i.e the jews. obv not as bad but they got the shit bombed out of them constantly. my grandmother was in the hitler youth growing up, which was kinda like the equivalent to our boy and girl scouts. anyways the stories that shes told me are scary as all shit.
 
I love frnech girls, yesterday i went to a party were a load of french girls were topless, on a dancefloor making out with each other and dancing and shit, it was heaven, literally, German girls all seem to be fat.
 
people need to get the sand out of their va jay jay and learn how to take a hit

i think it is just grand how people can say anything they want about anyone but if someone says something even remotely bad about them then all hell breaks loose and you end up being either racist sexist or some other goddamn ist

learn to laugh at your self

 
haha good thread dude. i think we would be friends, as i am also french and also enjoy making fun of others.
 
this one time my little brother (he was 8 at the time) and i were in the departure terminal in the frankfurt in germany and he was playing some online game thing based on WWII. WELL... my brother being the genius he is got so into shooting down the german planes in the game he suddenly yelled out "DIE YOU ROTTEN GERMAN SCUM!!!"

needless to say we got some really weird looks.
 
Yeah the moral of the story is its important to learn how to take a joke. Trust me, being french AND canadian I am officially tortured about maginot line this, canadians never won a war that. And I'm always humored when I'm warned against being drafted into the mounties where I would fight on mooseback with hockey sticks. On top of that I have fairly dark features and whenever my crustache gets to a certain length, I am immediately labeled a mexican. Of course I'm not going to get offended at jests about my cultural backgrounds. It's important not to. Perhaps germans for some reason or another have a lessened ability to understand sarcasm, it could always be a linguistic thing. Again I reiterate that I was being an asshole for shits and gigglets. When people say Canada has never won a war, I don't get offended because some of my recent ancestors died in European battlefields during WW2. Sure, naziism has an incredibly large stigma, but we can't become bette until we leave the past.
