the anti-France page

12 February 2003 by Frank Meeuwsen

The French hate the internet, because it’s all in unabashed English. The few smart Frenchies are raking in the money by adapting to civilized(non-French) society. Their fearless leaders are busy trying to “protect” the French people from this progress. Of particular concern is the word “cool”. It is a stupid and ambiguous American term that is corrupting their society. In French, there is no word for cool or fun. This fact alone says a lot.
