What, Paris doesn't have taxis?

Yeah, a good example of a guy unable to find his way when he s abroad because "it has to be like home". Yes, the metro is closed from 1 am (2 am on week ends) to 5 am.
Different solutions:

1) order a minicab service. They will text you when they are there to pick you up and will tell you in advance the price.
2) take a regular taxi
3) take a night bus, cause yeah they exist and subtitute the metro at those hours.
4) take an autolib' (electric car anyone can rent for a simple commute)
5) take a velib' (free bike for half an hour, 1 euro for an hour)
6) go there walking and use your smartphone to find your way. Paris is much small than you think.
7) continue partying till 5 am if all you want is your damn metro.

Conclusion: you got lame friends.

The City of Light's metro is unusually dense, with 245 stations on 14 lines, in just 87 square kilometers of the city. Parisians, apparently, don't like to walk...... The Paris Metro does lose some points for not having automatically opening doors. ... It also smells like pee everywhere in the city

a) reminds me of dorm room posters
b) reminds me of lactose-intolerant teetotallers who go to France...

what's up with France right now by the way? storming the Chunnel, blockading Spain and Germany, bitching at me about mortal kombat while in spain... has the whole country gone insane?

I'm semi-curious about that too, DY. What's so bad about France that these migrants are so desperate to leave they're willing to run miles along a train track?

So you're not semi-curious, Serbia? Just DoomYoshi and I are semi-curious? I guess that means we're bi-curious.

Do four push-ups and take an aspirin. Fixes it every time.
