My army couldn't invade France.

[Skittles!]

And yet ANOTHER right over Fir's head.

Obviously.

[freezie]

Fircoal..

MM couldn't take France because Joan De Arc reborn took control of the French Army and defended it from foreign attack, hence why Joan De Arc was reborn..


Get it?

yes I get that, but how is it funny? It's not.

Rules of the world #1 ( Since you're stuck on cc, might as well teach you the real life): A joke is never funny once explained.

uh, that is true. But I know about Joan of Arc, I just don't think it's that funny. Personally I think it's funnier to just diss the French army in a more blanent (sp?) way.

that would imply it was funny.

This seem the right place to post this. You will understand when you get to the part about the French.

your soldiers were probably trained by the French Army.....lmao...they and the armies in France were probably racing each other to surrender first...

Typical stupid American comment. You believe your media propaganda that the French would be inferior. "Ohh, they surrendered in WWII! They didn't want to invade Iraq!"

Let me see, illegal invasion of a country in the Middle East, with fabricated lies as an excuse ... true, only Americans did that. Also, Americans killed half a million Iraqi children with their sanctions that caused malnourishment, which Madeleine Albright said was "worth it" in an interview. Enjoy your murders. Also, Americans illegally bombed Iraqi infrastructure for twelve years after the first world war. Yes, much better than the French.

France fought well in WWII, but the Germans were simply better. The Americans did not have their territory invaded. Easy to point finger when you are protected by two oceans.

The French have fought countless wars throughout history, and the French Empire was second only to the British. And the British didn't have to worry about land wars, since they were also protected by water.

The French won the war Americans call the "Revolutionary War" for the Americans, who know nothing about the naval battles fought between France and Britain. Without the French, the Americans would have lost as they sucked enormously compared to the British soldiers. They would usually fire one volley in the battlefield and then run like scared chickens, while the British stood firm.


But go on, listen to your propaganda. By the way, how many Americans can point out Iraq on a map? Yeah.

I think that pretty much sums it up...

[Herakilla]

the"firing one shot and running like chickens" is incorrect. that was a brilliant tactic that worked numerous times.

think about it... would any competent commander put outnumbered, untrained, and largely inexperienced troops up against a trained, battle hardened army? if the Americans had actually "fought honorably" they would have been devastated. but by using hit an run tactics they wore the british down both mentally and physically. i admit the French were a huge help in the war but i resent your statement about the tactics used by generals like George Washington that succeeded.

[RobinJ]

this was one funny thread til it got serious a few posts ago. While most of it was just a tad unfair to the French, it is still funny to rip the piss out of them a bit. To be fair though... Gustaf Wasa does make some good points. the French had always fought quite well up until WWII when the Germans absolutely destroyed them. (Less than 2 weeks I believe). And that is really where they got their "cowards" label, even though many did fight as a resistance group.

The Germans would probably have won the war had there not been water between them and us... Britain. But the RAF was strong enough to hold back Operation Sea Lion until the Americans got annoyed with the Japs at Pearl Harbour and the winter hit the Germans in Russia...

[Herakilla]

hitler woulda won hands down if he had used his trains for supplying his troops rather than commiting genocide

[Bavarian Raven]

no, hitler would have won had he accepted the russian peace offer in late 1941...

[Dancing Mustard]

Hitler would have won if he'd stopped to remember that the internet is serious business.

[V.I.]

25,000 Americans died on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. The bloodiest day in U.S. history since Antietam, during the U.S. Civil War.

Oddly enough, Dancing Mustard's virginity died on a beach in Normandy exactly 60 years later, when he tripped on a misplaced rowing oar and...well you get the picture.

[-ShadySoul-]

Must be about the first army that couldn't...

touche mate, touche

[Herakilla]

my friend told me a joke that went something along this lines

the french have 109 words for surrender

[-ShadySoul-]

probably more
