    The ‘the french are cowards that suck at war’ stereotype is kinda tired by now.

      No, it’s not. Helm’s Deep will hold as long as there are Francophobes to defend it.

      As an American, still kinda funny. Not sure why we tease the French, they helped us with our revolution and gave us a great deal on a huge chunk of land, but here we are.

          Maybe? I was also against the Iraq War, but I was young-ish at the time and don’t remember if we teased the French before then as well. It was never serious though, like the rivalry between England/UK and France.
