I'm sure English police would've searched the passengers anuses for contraband after finding the guy in the trunk. What kind of tard visits Paris and decides driving is a good idea?

A pedantic puff-piece about getting pulled over by the cops in France for having a guy riding in the trunk. Pathetic.

Film Geek Highlight of my trip to Paris: I accidentally wandered to the bridge where that Inception scene with Leo di Caprio and Ellen Page was filmed,
where she does that thing with the mirrors.
Yea, not a big deal but it was just weird because I thought, where had I seen this are before?

Is it really a boot (trunk) if it's a hatchback? That part of a hatchback is part of the passenger space. And ya, the article is still not interesting nor funny.

The French like people who make funny faces and yell and fall down. People like Jerry Lewis or Roberto Benigni. I bet Adam Sandler is popular there.

Hell, I didn't even get that far. To me, it just sounded an old Irishman ambling about god knows what and never getting to the point. I gave up ever following his point halfway through.

What made it hilarious was that it was actually an attempt to cast an ugly light on another culture. You do this, of course, by writing pure drivel about how you can't smell varnish as well as sausage. What a farking moron. The author should move to America. Fox is hiring.

You obviously have not seen the original "The Nutty Professor." It's excellent!
Another great movie with Jerry Lewis is "The King of Comedy," also starring Robert DeNiro:
Broaden your horizons, people!

Which is fine as he's actually both.

Irish. One of us wrote this shiat, it just turned up in a shiatty Brit paper. Wogan is pandering to the British xenophobes, mind you...

I was and am still right. Moving to another country and taking citizenship doesn't make you any less of an Irishman, prick.

Dude, I flew into Nice once and went to a corner bar. The Barmaid was a worn out hooker about 60 with a short red dress, dyed blond hair, wrinkles in in her face your lose a lorry in and black armpit hair halfway to her elbow.
