I love how the French are largely ungovernable, but y’all are definitely snooty. I remember having a French exchange student who refused to eat corn because it was for cows. And who refused to eat cheese in the us, even when it was properly fancy cheese. But he loved epoisse.

Them being ungovernable probably has a large roll for why media portrays them in a bad light.

I wouldn't think governments and corporations around the world would want their populations being more like the French

Subreddit Rules

Keep It European

Memes should be relevant to Europe, Europeans, or European culture. Off-topic memes will be removed.

No Hate Speech or Bigotry

Racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and other forms of hate speech are strictly prohibited. Satire is welcome, but not at the expense of marginalized groups.

No Spam or Self-Promotion

Don’t flood the sub with your own content or links. Participate genuinely.

English Preferred, but Multilingual Welcome

While English is the main language, memes in other European languages are allowed if the humor is clear or a translation is provided.

Be Kind and Constructive

Disagreements happen, but keep discussions civil. Personal attacks, trolling, or harassment will result in bans.
