Your hypersensitivity aside, I'm trying to explain to you WHY the French are
the butt of jokes in America. *Whether you choose to listen or not is

It doesn't require hypersensitivity when someone is so glaringly
offensive. Nearly everyone on this thread has been trying to point
out to you that the French are not really different (better or worse)
than any other nationality on this planet, but no one can get through
to you. You are the one choosing not to listen, Jay.
