My first day at Art School in Chicago a shy female French student asked how long had I lived in Chicago. I told her all my life, she then asked how may people had I killed. IMMD

“Thirty-seven. But no French victims—yet.”
That would be an excellent pick up line
XDDD
I’ve actually had that happen to me twice…foreigners are just fun to mess with ^.^
I’m from Las Vegas, and the question we always get is “Which hotel do you live in?” My “home” is the Mirage– the look on tourists’ faces are PRICELESS!!
Ah… The wonders of american television…
I believe she’s shopping around for a hitman.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
you sure that wasnt a shy SHemanle french student? i bet “it” was hitting on you.
Yeeeaaah Chicago love! I have yet to have someone ask me something so epic.
So how many did you kill? Being that I work at an Art School in Chicago, I have access to such statistics. It would be interesting to find out…
Crazy.
But, normal french girls (are sexy) do not think that kind of stuff. Or, they are very dumb. Believe it I’m one.
It’s true we’re sexy, but not the other part you said. You’re just trying to show off while insulting other people. :-/
I had a French foreign exchange student come live with my family as a teenager. When I asked her if she wanted to go to the mall, she looked absolutely horrified. I asked her what was wrong and she said “That’s where all the gunfights happen and people get shot! Why would we want to go there?” My family lived in a rich, fancy suburb. I laughed so hard so hard I got a stitch in my side and IMMD big time. I explained that that was just in the movies. I finally convinced her and we went. She kept looking around and cringing at loud noises that entire first day.
LOL Sounds totally like me when I first visited the US.
We’re all convinced it’s like in GTA or the movies. XD With the drive by shoot-outs and all.
You’ve lived in Chicago all your life and Obumble hasn’t appointed you czar of anything? You must not have cheated on your taxes; that’s the #1 qualification.
Well, how many people have you killed? You didn’t really answer that part.
I live in Miami and our questions are either checking if we’re legal, or if we live on the beach. I quite prefer the latter question.
I am from Chicago as well and have twice been asked what gang I was in as soon as I mentioned I was from Chicago. Nothing about the way I dress or talk even remotely suggests gang affiliation. I guess I just didn’t stand a chance against Chicago’s reputation.
and then you asked her if De Gaulle was still president of France? (it really happen to me in the USA…)
“Only twice, that they know about.”
“I originally came to Chicago on the trail of my father’s killers, and for reasons that don’t need explaining at this juncture, I have remained attached as liaison officer to the Canadian Consulate.” oh wait…
That’s hilarious. And so true too.
I’m french as well, and the first time I visited the US, my boyfriend wanted us to go have a walk in the neighbourhood we were staying in, and I was 100% convinced we’d be shot by a drive-by or something, GTA style. LOL
Poor US, it has such strange reputation elsewhere in the world. XD
On a trip to DC in 6th grade, my sister told someone she was from West Virginia. They asked her if she wore shoes when she was at home. XD
