What do you feel?--or do?
 
When a French man or occasionally a French woman starts screaming and yelling in the metro, metro station or train station, how do you feel? How does this affect you? <BR> <BR>We have seen this happen on every trip we have ever taken to Paris.

Oh MY! May 19th, 2001 09:01 AM

Where do stay in Paris? I've only encountered some odd mumbling, but no yelling. Gypsies wanting money is what I get every time.

It would have the same effect that it would have in NYC, but I've never experienced it in Paris, only in NYC.

Whenever a French man or French woman starts screaming and yelling in the Metro, I simply remove my baseball cap and white sneakers and they immediately stop. :~)

I've seen it in Paris & NYC, and yes, they get the same reaction from people worldwide.

Just ask me to shutup in French and I'll stop. Stupid American pig dog.
