That page obviously does not contain the evidence. It's page 1 of a list of lists of evidence.

We learned that if you make an effort to speak their language, most French people are very helpful. But if you just assume they’ll speak English, they’re likely to be offended and won’t help you out.

You're not the first person I've heard this from. It seems to be a pretty universal experience, particularly in Paris.

Personally, as someone who took French in school, when I went to France I wanted the opportunity to practise it. And I found the French to be very friendly with it.

The only exception I’ve heard to this is that supposedly Parisians are dickish. But that’s only two people who had that experience ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Kindness is not how I would describe my experience in Paris.

I went to Paris once, but ze waiter ignored my attempts at speaking French when I tried ordering something to drink. And when he deemed me worthy of a little bit of his attention, he insulted me (the French friend I was with was appalled by what the waiter said about me). We left without getting anything to drink there. Instead opted for a bottle of water from a supermarket.

They say we Dutch are rude, but we pale in comparison to French waiters.

I think that's showing a total score of 501, and that the screenshot-taker downvoted. So at least 502 people upvoted it.

Including Americans apparently where some of them go on holiday and expect people to pump their fuel for them.

There was a foreign exchange girl from France. She was brutal. She said whatever was on her mind. She wouldn't even blink as she said in broken English that you werent worth the air you are breathing.

So yeah, this story checks out.

God I wanted her to step on me.

Wait what?

It truly is a mystery why the French have a reputation for being haughty assholes. The world may never know.

Not in the country I'm in so not necessarily true.

It doesn't have to be. I managed to fill my car up with diesel accidentally once... the nozzle was the same size, just a different color (which I didn't notice until much too late).

You gotta hawk tuah that shit.

Found the Frenchman who pumped the wrong fuel.

I'm confused. Americans are the only ones that do say "gasoline"/"gas". For the rest of us, it's petrol.
