You should probably stop going on your imaginary trips to Paris if your imagination hates it so much. Go take an imaginary trip somewhere more suited to your desires.
During my trip to Paris earlier this month we had lots of warm sunny weather and I got dry and wanted to have my favorite drink in the world- COKE.
Trouble is at bars and restaurants and shops they only offered a warm bottle that came with no ice. I learned the French word for Ice, (glace) but it got me no where. All they would offer me was a warm soda in a bottle that tasted syrupy and gross. There is nothing worse than warm soft drinks!
Why can't they offer me ice for my soft drink like the rest of the world?
Are you the same person that complained that European lifts are too small!? I don't believe for one moment that you wouldn't get ice with your drinks in Paris, particularly if you asked for it.

Yes the elevators at the hotels are too small, the rooms too small, the beds too small and the restaurants don't have the variety of food and experience they have in the USA.
The only place that they offered ice in the drinks were in places like McDonalds but they only put one or two cubes in the drink so it was still warm. The bottles at grocery stores were in warm coolers so were nearly at room temps.

For a retired person you sound a lot like a petulant teenager. Every post is whine, whine, whine. What's wrong with grown-up drinks anyway?
I never heard of anyone who really likes lukewarm drinks. Here only really young kids get drinks at room temperature so they don't get sick.
A family that I met in Italy invited me to their home and they drink everything at room temp as to not disturb the stomach's natural temperature.
