Queest-ce que la baise est erronée avec vous ?

Eh?
Ok, well I'm a modern guy; I'll try a Babel Fish translation...
"Queest-ce which the kisses is erroneous with you"
Eh?
(Just because I can't speak the language, doesn't mean I hate them ;-) )

Baise doesn't mean kiss, not since the 19th century. It means fuck.

It should read "What the fuck is wrong with you" :p.

Though I can understand why you don't hate the French, the smell of Garlic can't reach you where you are *shudder*. The Channel isn't wide enough, it really isn't...

Bloody French.

Tell it to the Babel Fish!

Thanks for clarifying.

Really, I don't know. If I figure it out, I'll let you know ;-)

Babel Fish won't translate swear words and Citizen misspelled it.

The correct spelling is this:

Qu'est-ce que la baise est erronée avec vous?

Try putting this into Babel Fish and see if it gives you better results.

I refuse to spell French correctly.

They should speak propers inglish like what I does.

I believe, for the most part, that we do. But inflexability will always play a role where life, death, torture, lies, truths, etc. are being discussed.
And the thing about jumping to extremes bugs me too- you NEVER advocated tasing for trivial reasons, and I see how dogpiles erupt from nowhere based on these jumps, and they come from both left and right. On the other hand, I also see that there are a lot of (for lack of a better term) drama queens here (I don't exclude myself at times) that either enjoy the fray, or lack some of the more reasonable arguing skills.

Still, this place has kept my attention for over two years now...we must be doing something right...

You know, you do occasionally meet some cool French people. It’s just a few tightwads that ruin it for the bunch. Like French waiters. French waiters are all dicks for some reason. I don’t know why - it’s a cultural thing. The French have a kind of formality to their culture that even the English lack, and Americans have never had. They have this impression that the bigger asshole they are - the nicer they are. And the reason why you see this in French waiters is because waiters are always trying to emboss this formality into their mannerisms. But if you go to France and talk to the average joe on the street, the ones that don’t give a shit about the cultural nuances of France’s long history of being kicked around by every nation in Europe like some crusty Croissant, then you really do meet some wonderful people in France.
