They're assholes.

I speak French, in Paris they still look at you like garbage.

Actually, outside of Paris I got along fine, but here's the thing: Even native french speakers from outside of Paris are treated like absolute garbage by Parisians, it's their only setting.

But that’s Paris. Parisians see everyone as tourists I guess.

Yeah, but ... that's like saying "Oh, that's just London!" about England, that's the key part of the country.

Paris would be so much better if it weren't for the fucking Parisians.

I found Londoners to be different in that respect, but that might be just me.

Terrific gif, by the way, I love it.
