Mr. Rude's French accent


Does anyone else find this offensive?

reply

not really. i caught an episode today where miss chatterbox made him a politey-phone...the accent is kind of funny actually.

not that french people are necessarily rude but you know...

reply

Oh, and Mr. Stubborn has a Jamaican accent.

reply

Hate to argue, but it's actually a Nigerian accent.

And I don't think the French accent on Mr. Rude is offensive.

reply

Nope. You're the only one you stupid politically correct thug.

Yeah, it is a little offensive.

I think there was even an episode where he said "I don't give a croissant".

WHO CARES?!????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if it was an american accent, would it be offensive?!??!

reply

No, that's the point.

It's a common stereotype that the French are rude.

reply

yes, i get that but let's all get a bit of a sense of humor here. do french people have rep of being a little stuffy or rude? sure, you're kidding yourselves if you don't think that's the case. it's an exaggeration, a caricature, it's for laughs. let's all ease up here.

Im half french on my mothers side and am in France very often. Being British i am treated as normal foreigner. My conclusion is that the majority of the French are indeed quite rude, or at least to people who do not speak French as a first language.

I found Mr. Rudes accent extremely funny and fairly spot on.

I read on BBC and Yahoo! earlier this month that the French were voted the rudest vacationers in a survey.

So that's just hilarious.

Nope and I wouldn't find it offensive if he had a United States accent. Lets say a New Yorker for instance. Some people say that New Yorkers are rude. I thought that the people of New York (for the most part) were nice, they just give it to you straight. I much prefer that than someone who is fake, but acts nice. I can be quite rude myself when I want to be.

I personally found Mr Rude's French accent amusing.

Though quite frankly, I'm offended Mr Lazy isn't an Australian.
