I will use this opportunity to once again bitch about my experience in Paris. My French sucks balls and I've had a looong day, so I ask a simple question in English. They answer me in French: 'I don't understand English, sorry'. OK, fair enough. So I try in French. Answer is in perfect English: 'yeah, we have xyz over there, have a look' and a bunch of small talk while I'm paying for said goods. Arrogant pricks.

There's arrogance on both sides there. Though, clearly, they were busting your balls.
