FLNJ has about 100 active members throughout France, as well as in Canada, Germany, Spain, and the United States.


This group has been holding kidnap victims hostage in France. Now I don't see how they could do that without the complicity of the French government. It can't be that easy to sneak so many victims across the French border. Anyway, read the story and see what you think. Are the French helping this organization?

The gnomes wore ties? :eek:

This seems like just the kind of evil act the French government is so infamous for.

Nah, the French state isn't helping them. It's just incompetant.

Quickly perusing the forum, I read the title of this thread as "Terrorists have French fries." *blush*

Am I the only one that thought the title said "Terrorists have French Fries" ?

At least they don't have our Freedom Fries!

Apparently not.

My first thought was..."I didn't think the French were really into ties".

gnomes are evil

Woah lol I guess I aint the only one!

Dig in! :D

They're not fries! They're chips!

They're not fries! They're chips!
Crinkle cut as well.

They ain't chippy chips though, and therefore they are scum.

Nope. And I was abotu to post it until I read this. Damn you people for beating me to the punch. Damn you and such...

If we're talking McCain oven chips, it'll be daddy all the way. Chippy chips though, you've got a contest on your hands. I think chips win because they go better with salt.

QFT.

But the McCain chips are better when deep-fried (like nearly everything is).

Yes, deep-frying improves almst everything.


On an unrelated note, I'm all alone with a scary lurker on gabbly :(

Wish I had a deep frier. Landlord won't let us have one because of the fire risk. Huh. :(

WHAT?!? :eek: There's as much fire risk from a freakin' hair dryer or an iron.

I've heard that people who try to deep fry turkeys often end up setting their homes on fire.

Yeah, well, first, they're idiots. Second, you can't use your standard deep-fryer for a turkey. They're probably just using huge pots of oil. Bad move.

That might be hard to do with a hair dryer...

Now we just need one of our local NS Bigots to blame this on these countries allowing to many gnomes in, who are all on wealfare, stealing our women and not integrating.
Oh and how because they are ubër fertile, in 100 years there will be more gnomes than natives and they'll all vote the Garden Gnome Supremacy Party into power and get rid of all our liberties/culture.

LONG LIVE THE GGSP!!!

I had to use tinyurls to get under the evil 1000 character limit, they still work!

My god......my fryer would have trouble with a small chicken. How do you fry a turkey?? Electric chair??

Damn...even hungrier now and still at work:(

And now you're not there! :p

We don't have any hair dryers. And I'm not sure about an iron either. I've certainly never used one in the two-and-a-bit years I've been living here.

Ever heard of the Schengen Agreement? In short, it's no harder that it is to go across state borders in USA.

And here I thought the OP was about Hermes, or, if they had real style, Charvet.

The gnomes wore ties? :eek:

No, it was the elves.:rolleyes:

That's the only reason I clicked it!

Lol, this thread has been seriously hijacked from a serious debate about french incompetance or corruption to french fries, crisps and chips etc..

Free the gnomes! viva la gnomes!

And could someone edit the title? I keep thinking this is about terrorist neck-war and wondering, so what if they have French ties? The French probably make nice ties.

They do, I have one. It is of very good quality, better than those fake "American" ties...

Oh ... I thought you meant the neckwear. I was going to say ... "Why not?" The French have pretty good sense of fashion after all ...

No finer tie in the world than a Charvet.

I can envision hermes making such a tie, and they do a fine job as well.

A note to anyone inspired to go and spend a fortune on charvet ties: you will be a fool if you do not buy shirts there as well, since they are primarily known as the finest shirtmakers in the world.

I like the French horn tie. :D I wonder if they do that in women's neck-wear? Do you think they make women's shirts as well?

I'm a terrorist. Can I have a french tie/fry?

No self-respecting terrorist goes without one.

The FLNJ has made international news? Wow. They just get a few lines over here. ;)

if you dont have a french tie then you probably shouldnt be eating terrorist cakes

Am I the only one thinking that some enterprising person should market a sensor to put into a gnome that triggers a recording that screams, "AIDEZ-MOI ! REGARD ICI ! JE SUIS ENLEVÉ ! QUELQU'UN APPELLENT MA MAMAN ! AIDE ! MAUVAIS CONTACT !" when the gnomes are picked up?


:D

Hermes ties are often made from the same silk as their famous scarves, so I imagine you could get a scarf in something along those lines.

Very true. My Lady has a couple very lovely Hermes scarfs (her company back in NYC knew how to spend omney on gifts to the employees).

No, but I assumed that it was talking about French fashion accessories.

That would be very funny to see the reaction as the gnome started to call for help. :D
