That's actually pretty amusing and definitely woke me up from my sleepiness.

Some legit lines:

56% think it's the Sun
42% think it's the Moon
Just my personal opinion, I think it's pretty divided.

No shit. hahah :)

Vick,

You can talk shit 'bout me,
You can talk shit 'bout my mama,
But when you start talkin' shit 'bout FRANCE...

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Although, I will admit that was pretty funny. I wonder if they're still teaching geo-centrism in some schools.

But still, definitely not a useless country, nor the dumbest. A lot of great contributions to civilization have come from the French and continue to.

what annn idiiootttt, somehow i wish this was a staged-joke or something, cuz this is unbelievable......

But with all the nuclear power they use, the the French might be considered one of the smartest! And there's a widely recognized paradox called the "French paradox which refers to the observation that the French suffer a relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease, despite having a diet relatively rich in saturated fats."

Cuz they drink all that red wine and shiieet.

Just off the top of my head:

The French have been pretty important to the European Union, which strengthened the overall European economy and created the largest international trading market.

They were one of the first to actually question genetically modified foods, and create strict regulations for them. In the US & Canada, GM foods have been largely unregulated and unlabeled without concern. It might seem insignificant to you but I think regulating GM foods and companies is important in keeping with the precuationary principle that has always been at the forefront of science and health developments.

They were one of the only countries actually vocalizing their discontent with "the War on Terror" even if they've been a bit hypocritical about it.

and if someone actually researched it, I'm sure they could find a ton of things.

France actually is one of the nations that should be looked at in a positive light, just like countries such as Switzerland etc. They have a pretty sweet educational system too.

they are strong in everything besides the military but one day that will happen
