Why do Americans love Paris so much? It's a shitty city

u jelly

Paris has been ranked amongst the most beautiful city in the world

our country is secret ouiboos

>>70584259
I took my parents to Paris last year and they looked so dejected on the way back, my mom especially was heartbroken.

Anglos are retarded. News at 11.

But at least Paris isn't Norway.

I took the plane from Paris to Chicago once, it was full of chubby American girls like pic related who seemed to suffer from PTSD

They though they were going to paradise, but ended up getting sexually harassed by packs of sandniggers, and worse, when they asked if they had something in their size at a designer boutique, they simply received a plain "no" from the smug staff

i really kekd at your responses.
if you want simple answer OP, it's because paris used to be fantastic and people have trouble letting the past go.

pic is 5km from home, you should not visit paris and assume the entire country is like that.

capital cities are usually shit. this is true for most countrys

Ex :
Washington, Oslo, London, canberra, berlin, madrid, rome

Actually one is nice : Amsterdam

I took my parents to NYC last year. They got shot.

>>70589587
why would you go there with them if not to get them dead ?

>>70584259
Most American come from terribly poor European. They just want WHAT they had Lost in the Past.

>>70584259
This. What a shit city

>inb4 t.province

>>70584757
Well you shouldn't picture this city as the city of love or whatever memes again in the first place you fucking retard

Everybody knows in France that Paris is not the city of art and good food it's just paris the big city that smells like piss with niggers selling you tiny eiffel towers
it's not us who's spreading this stupid cliché it's only you, asshole

We associate Paris with everything that is quaint and romantic about the Old World.
The UK doesn't count because it's too Anglo, thus familiar and not authentic Europe (because Europe is foreign. Foreigners don't speak English, silly!).

>>70592384
Eiffel Tower is the worst site spot in Paris. I don't understand why too many people have been attracted by just iron material.... Kind French are more preferable than the fucking tower.

>>70592695
I'd never offend American.

>>70592706
France is quite socialistic if you didn't know. They only work 35 hours a week.

>>70592936
No shit I know about this, but if you think it means no one works above 35h you are mistaken

>>70592802

>working 35 hours

lol this is bullshit. Many of us are out of work and live off neetbucks and other less "honorable" means of subsistence but most of those who do work work a lot. The law isn't always respected, it's not as strict as you may think and it's being gradually suppressed anyway. I'm pretty sure the average Frenchman works more than the average Swede actually.

>>70592851
>those cars

straight out of deepest communist cesspit, you could blindfold me and lead me there and if not for signs i would assume i am still in my neighbourhood

>>70592966
I know, usually shit like this turns out like "you can work 35 hours but you have to deliver the same results" which means people work overtime, sometimes unpaid, and the whole thing fails to fullfill its purpose.

>>70592851
>You really think 12 000 000 people all live in individual houses or fancy Euroblock from the 19th century ?
Yes

>>70593170

Exactly and if you try to exercise your right anyway your boss will often find a way to fire you, or make you snap and quit.

>>70592966
Actually i do often work more than 40 hours a week, but i only write 8 hours a day because it kind of looks bad and gets expensive for the customer if i work extra hours all the time. I feel its unjust towards them because usually the required overtime is due to slacking or lack of competence on my part.

>>70593248

That's why I think Paris is disgusting and I never want to live there, it's depressing as fuck. Paris itself can be pretty but the whole metro/urban area around it is truly awful. And nobody can afford living in the good parts of Paris anymore.

I live in Marseille and we have some commieblocks like this too but it's not nearly as bad, it's more diffuse throughout the whole city not concentrated in one place in particular and we have the sea and lots of nature around and pretty buildings to compensate.

This pretty much
Paris beauty isn't a lie, some places are really god-tier or simply comfy. But the population exploded in the last century and like anywhere else cheap housing had to be created. Paris itself is like 2.2 million people, but the whole urban area is more than 12 million so it involves lots of commieblocks

>>70593624
>and we have the sea and lots of nature around and pretty buildings to compensate.

That's why I never thought Marseille was that bad, at least the region is really beautiful whereas the Ile-de-France can be comfy but it's nothing exceptional

You should have taken them to Nice so they'd get Truck'd instead. A much better way to go.

He's right tho, if you're gonna live in what is known here as a "shithole" you might as well choose the shithole with a great climate and sea and mountains nearby

>29.1ºC July high
>Good climate
Plus if you really want a scorching climate with mountains Genoa has the same purchasing power as Marseilles with less niggers.

Marseilles is a great city to visit as a tourist, same as Paris. Living there on the other hand...

>>70595304
I would think a Portuguese wouldn't be afraid of 30ºC

>>70595386
You obviously thought wrong, average july high in my city is 24ºC m8 and even that is pushing it. 30ºC is just too much.

I don't mind the heat, I like it actually. I don't care about crime. I don't mind arabs and africans that much either, 99% of the time they are nice and polite to me (when they're not, it can degenerate fast and go very far though), but I do wish there were more white people in my neighborhood, I feel a little isolated sometimes. Many parts of the city are still predominantly european but they're more expensive.

I would NEVER trade Marseille for Paris, ever. Even the people are nicer and pretty much everything is better here. I do consider going back to the countryside though.

>>70596319

*Oh, and while I have ancestry from Genoa, my Italian really sucks. I don't know what I would do over there. I'd emigrate to the US before Italy, probably...

I'm saddened by knowing that.

>I would NEVER trade Marseille for Paris, ever. Even the people are nicer and pretty much everything is better here.
The pretty much everything is better here is what I instinctively default to when statistics show that pretty much everything is objectively worse here. Are you really sure you objectively beat Paris?

And why not move to, say, somewhere along the coast of Perpignan? You have mountains there too.

>>70594520

I think Paris isn't a bad place as such but it suffers from its status as a capital in a super centralized country, and it makes the rest of the country suffer as well.

>>70596667
Well if you have a valuable skill you can probably find a job there, perhaps the same thing you do in France.

And why not move to Italy? There's a massive difference between moving to Genoa and "moving to Italy".

Besides, I'd move to the US too if I could, but it's nearly impossible to go there for us.

>>70596857

True objectivity doesn't exist. I was born here and lived a huge part of my life here. It's home, and it's really not that bad compared to Paris' suburbs. Yes we're famous in the French media for drug dealers shooting each other with AKs but I don't even mind.

If I was to move anywhere in France I would go to Aubagne (which, well, is still pretty much Marseille nowadays, just a little bit chiller and whiter), ot the Var's countryside where I lived for some years too, or Corsica where I have my roots.

>>70597027

Everything is possible. Moving to the US is not the easiest thing yes but it's far from impossible.

No I don't have much of a valuable skill to sell on the job market.... I dropped out of university a while ago. I'm trying to get into programming now, I really think it's the future, most jobs are going to disappear or change radically before long.

I get where this is coming, I had to move to Porto to study but at least that is very close and it mostly "feels" the same, I'd leave the country (which I intend to) before I'd even consider to move to fucking Lisbon.

>>70597229
In your case moving to the US legally would pretty much be impossible. Since you're french and don't have a uni degree your only legal bet is to charm an american women to marry you so you can get citizenship. But I'd rather move to Canada, plenty of Barbosas there too but you would have Quebec.

And please consider getting some form of higher education. Programming is fine but I don't know if the supply of programmers will exceed the demand one day, but probably not soon.
I'm actually in a Financial Engineering master's and choosing an area more related with computing and data was the best choice I ever made.

>>70597705

>your only legal bet is to charm an american women

Um yes well that was more or less what I was thinking of.

Canada is too cold for my taste...

>And please consider getting some form of higher education

I would but it's financially unsunstainable for me atm.

>Programming is fine but I don't know if the supply of programmers will exceed the demand one day, but probably not soon

I hear you. As you say, for now it's all good. Tomorrow's another day right? Besides, programming is a good way to be independant as an entrepreneur.

>>70598102
Vancouver has a nice weather, similar to Brittany. And I know it's cold but you're underestimating how moving to Quebec would make things easier for you compared to the US. Sure you're french so you can probably find some american gal to marry you, but Canada would be easier.

>I would but it's financially unsunstainable for me atm.
That's your mom and dad's responsibility, in non autistic non scandinavian cultures like ours, that is.

And I agree, for now it's all good however jump on the train asap. I hate the expression it's never too late. It's always too late for everything, you should have already started and shouldn't have left for tomorrow what you could have done yesterday.

>>70598593

Brittany is still a little too grey and cold for my taste lmao. But I may consider Canada if things get any shittier here.

>That's your mom and dad's responsibility, in non autistic non scandinavian cultures like ours, that is

My parents do help, although there have been times they haven't, but quite frankly it's not enough.

>you should have already started and shouldn't have left for tomorrow what you could have done yesterday

I have already started. I'm finishing to learn HTML/CSS and will start learning Ruby soon. It may be better if I managed to have a formal title even a course shorter than a year, but that's not so easy to obtain.

>>70598797
Why is it not enough?

You should definitely go for formal titles if you want to work abroad, and for example no matter how many shit they get things like CompTIA certifications are always a plus on your resume

>>70599426

Because it's not enough. They earn slightly too much for me to get welfare as a student and they don't earn enough for me live comfortably enough as a student without welfare. I was never able to study and work at mc donald's at the same time (i'm getting too old for this shit anyway).

France's system is really stupid, you're better off financially being an unemployed bum than a student.

>and for example no matter how many shit they get things like CompTIA certifications are always a plus on your resume

I never heard about CompTIA but there are French equivalents, I'm working on it.

>>70599835
That system is designed as such because politicians want to buy the vote of the poor, it's not as bad here in that respect but I've heard it sucks too.

And do work on them, you'll see the work was well worth it once you get to see the fruits which is a nice comfy job or even a chance at being entrepreneurial as you said.

>>70600462

Will do, although it's not always easy getting off the ADD and procrastination train.
