Fun Facts About The French

Jon sent me these fun facts about the French.

  • A Frenchman will fight viciously and without regard for his own life if you stand between him and a white flag.

  • Rumor has it that the French don’t like bathing. This rumor comes from them smelling.

  • To get with modern times they have adopted a stance of pre-emptive surrender.

  • During the cola wars, France was occupied by Pepsi for six months.

  • They like to sell weapons to enemies of America. But come on – what kinds of pansies use French weapons?

  • Their language not being quite as effeminate as they would like, they also wear berets.

  • The Eiffel tower was constructed so that they would have something very tall to wave a white flag from in case of attack.

  • In ancient times, primitive Frenchmen surrendered to thunderstorms.

  • They actually have a military, though what purpose it serves is unknown.

Why does the French Navy only sail in glass-bottom boats?


So that they can review their Air Force!

The local surplus store is having a sale on French war surplus rifles. GREAT deal, they've never been fired and were only dropped once.
