This is happening to me right now. I moved to Aberdeen (Scotland) and since I came here, I've developed a hatred for anything and anyone in the whole of the North East of the country 😂
@@MountainBain I live in Newmachar, just out of the city and it's so cold up here all the time, even in the summer at Codonas on the beach my hands were white and numb. The city has a very grim feel to it and after dark the place is outright rude and scary. Public transport is a joke around here, getting a taxi is almost impossible, there's no train service in this town and I can't even get hold of weed unless I travel to the city on the single bus route. I have epilepsy so driving isn't an option for me. Maybe the shire would be better accessible if I could drive, but to be honest there's nothing here that I can't get anywhere else. I'm desperately saving every penny I can for a deposit further south. I can't see myself spending much more time here. I have never suffered depression till I moved here either. It's so restricting up here
@@tonystank9934 I disagree. Everything surrounding the French is amazing. The culture, the food, the locations in France, etc. The worst thing about France is the people, but then again you can say that about anywhere I guess lol.
@@marcioborgesreis9066so many French living in America you know damn well😂 Best wine is from California best cheese is from Oregon best food city is New York All your modern culture is American
@@farmerned6 “I form not my opinion My Dear Lord from others, no it is from what I have seen. They are thieves, murderers, oppressors and infidels, therefore what faith can we hold with these people (the French)” - Lord Nelson
I find French people very welcoming and patient. Specially When I was in Paris and struggling with my broken French. Everyone would help me and understand my situation. Very kind people. Just joking bro, they are awful
Yeah I was in Paris sitting on a bench next to an old woman and she asked me where I’m from and I told her Florida. She looked at me with disgust and said “who would ever live there it’s so boring and flat not a good place”. I asked had she ever been there and she said no then got up and walked away. I was thinking wtf was that interaction? I did go to Normandy where my grandpa landed in WW2 and people were nice there.
I mean if you saw how the tourists be acting over here you wouldn't be surprised, I litteraly saw some dude risks his baby's life just to get a picture in the middle of road in front of the Eiffel tower. Paris is a great city without tourists 🤷🏻♂️
@@ouinon4138en vrai je lui donne raison. Ça fait 20 piges que le gouvernement chie sur le francais de base, pour sucer tout les immigrés de la planete, et que on se fait insulter de facho pour vouloir limiter cette immigration incontrolable. Alors oui on se casse. Je reviendrai quand on aura viré tout les mahometants, les wesh, et les clandos. Jai grandie en banlieue et ca fait 20 piges que jme fait insulter de sale francais dans mon propre pays. Alors niquez vous, jme casse
there's a common thing called Paris syndrome especially with Japanese people and its an overwhelming sense of disappointment when visiting paris as they are shown by tv or movies that its the city of love and its beautiful but when they get there they realise everyone is rude theres litter everywhere and it smells of sewers
@@house30houseI've seen some people fall in love with where they went so much they bought a home and became expats. But it wasn't France, it was Vietnam.
A French siblings once stayed at my house in Indonesia and because I am into architecture, we talked about how beautiful (so I heard) Paris is. The brother said, "well... But you will see that on the train, the French are all sad people. No body is happy." And my heart broke for them.
@@machtnichtsseimann thats what got them into trouble in the first place, the Catholic church is a joke an edited, watered down, satanic, pedophilic form of christianity. Its called the ROMAN catholic church even though the romans killed Jesus then hijacked the religeon, many middle eastern slav caucas and north africans still follow the old REAL teachings of christ before the romans got their perverted hands on it.
@@IbrahimservantofAllah You don't have to read it for you to believe them, it is worth reading to know and understand what are the things that other people believe, to understand the drivers behind other people's actions. By reading them, you will never make false claims about the beliefs of Christians and Muslims. And if you read the Bible, you will see that it has stories more dramatic than any Hollywood stories or Harry Potter or Housewives of New Jersey.
A lot of wines at French restaurants are actually made and imported from here in South Africa, it’s also imported to many other places around the world, we’ve got a great climate for growing the best grapes for wine and some of the best wine in the world is made here
As a French-Canadian, I have to say that I'm really happy that, for once, an outsider recognize that the French and French-Canadians are not the same thing! We don't even speak the same dialect! It's literally the same as saying that Americans are British.
It is definitely not the same thing as saying Americans are British, but we do know what you mean to articulate. It would be like saying African Americans are Africans or for that matter English speaking Americans and Canadians are all Englishman. I for one certainly wouldn't correlate our French Canadian neighbor's culture, attitudes, loyalties, etc. to France. Lol. Hopefully Joe learned something from Theo on this one.
The French people in Canada are stuck. They thought that by keeping the language original, they would save their heritage. All it did was isolate them from their heritage and now they can't grow either. Half their language is English spoken with a French accent, because they can't create original French words or it will change the original French. There is a reason Latin is called a dead language. The real language in Canada is Quebecois. It is a limited language and the sooner it dies the better the world will be.
As an English man who travelled to Montpellier to meet 10 of my FRENCH friends and we all drove to Portugal together, I can say that French people are amazing, kind, intelligent, funny and welcoming and their country is beautiful.
Most of what we know about each others country is so twisted by the media. When I go to the USA, im always amazed at how kind and welcoming people actually are.
My takeaway from Paris in 2018 is that everyone I met was friendly and very cool. Lived the city and the people. I did not experience the cliche that people in Paris are rude.
man, fuck quebec. they get preferential treatment. while everyone else is marked as racist they get to say they're preserving quebec culture. also, they drain resources from other provinces. it's clearly the homebase of the elite.
As an American who took an impulsive coupla-of-days trip to Paris while spending a few months in Rome -- totally agree with Theo. I simply could not wait to get out of there.
@@rolfopierreantoine8906 sorry didn't see this till now. Arrogant, self serving, and overall very disrespectful. Royal marines and the Norwegians (sorry I can't recall which regiment they were with) were very easy to not only work with, but get along with as well. French on the other hand were a Hassel. I've never experienced such snobby, self centered, "royalty" in my life. And that's a lot considering I served under usmc officers
i love the french people. they are very straightforward and tell you the truth instead of faking to be polite… french are not two faces. stop being sensitive!
I love him too but.... Is no one gonna point out he looks and is acting coked out right now? He admits to doing it on and off lol Im chilling and looking at him and saying, " damn he's looking and twitching just like me when I did coke" lol
Exactly, literally the worst city in France you can go to. Yet every American goes there and shockingly has a bad time. If they just spent a little bit of time researching places and cities, they’d see that there’s a bunch of other beautiful places to go. I’ve never had a bad time or interaction with any French people. Used to go there every year in my childhood, south France is definitely far from rude. Sainte-Maxime is amazing
I have never had a bad experience in France, and I am german. If you try starting out with french they are oftentimes very willing to switch to German or english
Mention you’re from saarbrücken or sulzbach and with Americans and you’re fucked paying double on labeled shit and getting told they don’t have a bathroom “for you”😂😂
@@Muhfuc never happened to me, but while i live close, i am not from Saarbrücken. Funny enough we have a town really close to where i live called Kirnsulzbach so you freaked me out for a second when i read it
Real canadian french constitute 0,02 % of north america...a mircoscopic minority...keeping the culture is an eternal ongoing fight...but theo is too comfortable to realise that
@Yvan Dupotte Yeah but the bouncer asking you to tip him to go into a club on top of the cover fee just because you don't speak French isn't preservation of culture, unless the culture includes being an asshole to the "other".
Unfaire indeed. But to be purely honest, I've seen lost assholes and also genuine kind hearts in every culture, race, color, sports teams, at work, in families etc. It's a monumental mistake to generalise
French and French Canadians are as different as British and Americans. Same language different way to speak, different food, different attitude, different music, different style, different habits.
Yeah but comparing british and americans don't sum up French and French Canadians relationship. More like French and French 200 years ago(French Canadians)
@@ldoguerre but Paris is the biggest city in France, DC is nowhere near the biggest US city. There's probably at least 100 cities the size of DC or bigger I don't know many US tourists that plan on staying in DC on purpose But, what you say *is* true- I don't think you can make a direct comparison or analogy, tho
@@RolandoHCyvil thank you. I from the u.s. and my wife really wants to travel so I’m trying to find out the good places in countries to go that are not over tourized. Even if the places are normal to the locals.
C’est marrant d’aller chercher de l’attention chez des étrangers qui te crachent littéralement à la gueule. Avec un peu de chance ils te feront l’aumône d’un peu d’amour propre.
@@paulbourguignon3632 lmao, chercher de l'attention... Ca s'appelle du sens de l'humour. Par ailleurs je pense que nous faisons référence au FR comme toi quand on dit que la France ça peut être chiant.
@@SaskTransfer There was a very good video on the french language a few months ago. They concluded the Quebec french is actually more like the french a few centuries ago from a certain region of France. After Quebec became part of Canada, the spoken french stayed the same as the old days, meanwhile in France, because of wars and interaction with other countries, the spoken french changed with time. So what is the real french, the old one or the one that changed with time ? Thinking on it, almost the same could be said of the spoken english in Canada and the US
@@modedesigner7534 You are the one living up to the old british "We are superior" idea. Keep being a legend in your own mind. Maybe you should learn something instead of just repeating old bs
We don’t get irritated, we just only speak one language so we don’t understand what you’re saying, but very few people in the US would actually get mad that you’re speaking another language
French canadian here from quebec! Atleast in Canada we can speak in english and it sounds like it. People from France can’t even speak like our French and its french😂
@@slickdragon2536 I have listened to several movies done in Paris where i barely understood half the lingo they spoke because it was barely french but more like in England where they barely understand the slang in an other city that is only a 100 miles away. So don't brag too much about your french p.s. i have no problem talking/speaking french.
@@slickdragon2536 That is part of the problem, no one notice their own accent. Also it seems like some regions in France don't have as much problem with the Quebec accent, probably because it originate from around those regions
@@mrclutchy420 pretty ironic you call me dumb when your comments actually are retarded…”people from France can’t even speak like our French and it’s French”… it’s cause you dumb Quebec people butchered the language similar to English-Jamaica English. Also I’ve been to France plus another 30-35 countries and every province in Canada. You’ve probably never even left that shit hole province you’re from.
It's funny how the stereotypical behavior of the French can even be experienced in games as well. If you play a game and a player is stretching the match or a sudden death moment and they start playing hyper evasively, or defensively... just pushing the timer until YOU give up. They are 100% French. I've not been wrong once in my life.
"Paris syndrome (French: syndrome de Paris; Japanese: パリ症候群, romanized: Pari shōkōgun) is a sense of extreme disappointment exhibited by some individuals when visiting Paris, who feel that the city was not what they had expected. The condition is commonly viewed as a severe form of culture shock. The syndrome is characterized by a number of psychiatric symptoms such as acute delusional states, hallucinations, feelings of persecution (perceptions of being a victim of prejudice, aggression, and hostility from others),[1] derealization, depersonalization, anxiety, and also psychosomatic manifestations such as dizziness, tachycardia, sweating, and others, such as vomiting.[2]"
Exactly! And most people around the world (besides the way to sensitive North Americans and directly following The UK) prefer honesty and authentic behavior over unnecessary overly performed politeness, fake smiles, false friendliness and the seemingly never ending act of beating around the bush, instead of efficiently coming strict to the point, even when its harshly
I’ve always found the French welcoming. Even having patience with me when using my schoolboy French. People say the French have an attitude but I’ve yet to experience it, even over nearly 40 years of visiting off & on. Suppose I’ve been incredibly lucky when I’ve been.
My family business has been making agricultural harvesters for almost 20 years. Earlier on we had to deal with the French numerous times and it’s just not worth it. We refuse any and all business with the French. They are terrible people. I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
Just so you know, as a french canadian, we are not like the french from France AT ALL!! Strangely, they use way more english words than us and we are the ones surrounded by english speaking people…
As tu déjà été vivre en France pour dire ça ? Un Québecois est un français à 2 semaines d'écarts. Après 2 3 bonnes blagues salées et un premier grand cru, tu deviens français.

I have actually met some very warm genuine french ppl, I think it's a difference between city french and countryside rural french, the really nice ones I've met were from the rural farming areas. We have the same difference in America.
