The French don't mind being stereotyped. They know they're better than everyone else.

As one of Those People to the North, I'm sorry your country has to listen to this man.

Ways to compliment a stranger’s shirt without sounding creepy:

The customer is always right, therefore that door wasn't opening the correct way.

“Don’t tread on me!

the Nazi’s would’ve killed you for both, so might as well be doubly offended at her terribleness.
