France finally gets a Starbucks!

I rarely go to Starbucks,but I find it a shocking that almost every major country in the world has one of these and France didn't.

French culture: watch your back garcons when against the likes of Starbucks.

Ironically,in that link to the article I posted,they talked about Starbucks competing with cafes. But they stated that it would'nt hurt French cafes.

Gah.

I was just in Paris last weekend and was so incredibly relieved to experience the lack of fast food, Starbucks, SUVs, and fat people.

Damnit.

There must be fat people in Paris. Otherwise, Iggy wouldn't have developed his (ridiculous and unthinking) hate of fat chicks.

Although video game unrelated~ Maybe I will visit Paris some day.

Other than that idol singer game, what have the indigenous French designers been up to lately?

...What's that? a place where, like, you can have a cafe?
...And?
(What's this stupid article? Who thinks in France we invented the cafe? What do they mean, we like our cafe cheap? Who do they try to fool with their croissants and pains au chocolat? They're openning a cafe in Paris, not a french cafe in Tokyo!)
Uh... Oh... They open it at Opera. Oh. Invasion of young ugly japanese girls kettei.

It's precisely because they are a vast minority that I can mock them. If they were a majority as in, well, some other vast andfat country, I couldn't open my mouth in public or I would be compressed to death in lard.

I think we don't have any game designers. Everytime I hear of them I wish we didn't.

Come on, man. You obviously haven't been listening to rappers enough. It's the big women, baby.

Someone mentioned French game designers,there's one cool one I'm looking forward to that a French game company is working on. Sitting Ducks.

This show's so cool.

Hmm, China's had Starbucks in Shanghai for quite a while--at least since 2001, and that's when I saw it. Amazingly, the stuff will cost you basically the same as it does in the US, a marked surprise given that your $2.50 can buy you a nice dinner on the mainland! Japan's Starbucks are nice n' expensive, too...but it's cool to have one at your train station!
