I’m not French and also not here to argue, but i think that some of these jokes are quite horrible meaning that TO the French.
Im french and these are so true
haha freaking hilarious i hope the french dont take it too seriously though
on second thought lol who cares
Sure the not so serious jokes are funny, but the serious ones about the WWII isn’t. This is because probably thousands and millions of french people died for nothing. Just because the Germans were to greedy and wanted more land.
Sure take the piss outa them, but not over something so serious. I suppose they take the piss outa us, just not about our men dieing in war.
Hey … I’m frm India …i didn’t get it, r the french supposed to be peaceful or wat?

Napoeleon was from corsica, the french have only been truly victorious when they are led by forigners
This is probably why the French hate us………..
However, keep in mind that the French greatly aided the United states gain its freedom from Britain. And America is the strongest military force in the world currently.
So technically, we(the strongest military power in the world) used to Owe France one
Also, an odd fact considering back armor, Genghis Khan actually made the armor on the back of his soldiers thinner so that they could be killed more easily if they tried to run.
Plus, Didn’t France (during tribal times as the gauls) have a hand in conquering Rome?
Three words. French Foreign Legion.
But the jokes were funny, especially the quotes!

Come on now,
The French aren’t pussies, during WWII, they fought too to recapture their land, ohh noo wait, they Took a bunch of people from their north african colonies and used them to fight under the French Flag, and then claimed the victory and said the French soldiers did it, then stoped paying these people their pensions after their countries got their independence,
The French are good at sucking, good one.

Jokes are ok, not as cutthroat as I would like, but still funny. And French people are the shit stain in the underwear of the world!
the jokes are too funny and amusing…while some of it may be true,others are too exagerated and outright false…im neither a french nor an american but to call the french pussies and surrendering monkeys just because of world war II is too much…you guys ever heard of the free french forces?well even the brits makes use of their colonies to fight their wars..if the french were really the people you believe them to be they would not be one of the worlds richest and most powerful countries.
Hahaa, so funny!

Coming from the battle field of Afghanistan and worked some french Soldiers, i don’t find those jokes funny. They are as good as we are, so who ever came up with those jokes need to grow up. As American we need to leave the french alone with jokes related to their army and start focusing on those that are killing our sons, daughters, sisters and friends, there are the ones that make fun fun of us while drinking tea over there…
