Pretty cool that i can go all the way to France and when i get homesick i can just make a stop at the McDonalds located in the Louvre.
Geez...you'd actually get homesick in Paris?

And you'd stop in McDonald's while in France?

My god...SMH. You've officially made the worst post in CD history.

Hey non-American posters on this board...that poster IS NOT representative of all us Yanks. Thank goodness.

well, A great nation can be known by the vision of its leaders, the justice of its courts, the honesty of
its citizens, and it’s compassion for those in need.

I grew up in Germany and Japan. I've been to so many different countries because of family businesses. I was born in Oklahoma city and came back to the States when i was 10. I don't believe there is a best country for EVERYBODY, but I still love the U.S. the most.

My brother served in U.S. Marine Corps for a total of six years. I learned to love the U.S. military. We really do have the best military in the world.

We might not be the best country for EVERYBODY, we are definitely the most wanted country. In foreigners' eyes, Americans are still the most popular although they might not admit it due to jealousy.

You look at that United States the way a 4 year old looks at his mommy.

If French food was all that great there would be no McDonald's at the Louvre. The most overrated food has to be French.

That's because you don't know squat about French food.

There is NOTHING overrated about any southern European cuisine. Nada.
