Lost in France

[Boris Bear]

I had a French cultural induction today - the deluded fuckers were trying to tell us that they have the fourth biggest economy in the world.



Is there any nation more up themselves than the French?

The Russians try hard to be.

I find Germans to be a bit thick.


Dutch are cool as fuck

I usually say that it's no coincidence that 'chauvinism' is a French word, but if it wasn't French it would be Russian.
