From the AFP (which is a French company)
The French have been voted the world’s most unfriendly nation by a landslide in a new British poll published. They were also voted the most boring and most ungenerous.
A decisive 46 percent of the 6,000 people surveyed by travellers’ website Where Are You Now (WAYN) said the French were the most unfriendly nation people on the planet, British newspapers reported.
The Germans have no to reason to celebrate the damning verdict. They came second on all three counts.
I’m just astounded. This is so surprising ;)
To add insult to injury, British newspaper The Daily Telegraph put the boot in on Saturday by saying in an editorial that the French stank.
“The French may like to think that Chanel No 5 is their scent but we all know that garlic and stale Gitanes are much more representative.”
Not surrender cheese?
A doctor of mine is Romanian. Every time I go in to see him he has to say something negative about the French. He’s always playing French music, and replied when I asked him about it, “I hate the French, the only thing they are good at is music and cinema”. Eastern Europe has it figured out too.
I once went to boarding school with a girl from France, out in the country near the Med. She said to always remember that the cities do not represent all of France, but, I have a hard time believing it.
