The Bitching thread

I never drove a Tesla but i guess there is an « asshole » or « small dick energy » mode you can select which activates blinding headlights, swerve and pass in front to feel superior and tailgate anyone respecting the speed limit. By selecting these modes, your car suddenly smells like Elon Musk balls trough the automatic air freshner ...
There were actually two of these idiots last night so maybe one was a dealer and the other was running low lol
La Meunerie Urbaine is the only bakery where they call a Pain au chocolat a Pain au chocolat and not chocolatine. The rest of the bakeries are forcing me to use chocolatine

Y'a zéro débat au Québec de tout façon, ici c'est une chocolatine. Sauf pour les français. Qu'ils s'adaptent.
People standing and not moving on the stairs (doom) scrolling.
People walking on the stairs but in the middle so that people walking at a different pace are all stuck behind

Restaurants that give you thimbel-sized water glasses so you have to keep asking for more and waiting
Canada taxes are so complicated especially if you have worldwide incomes...
Pain au chocolat vs Chocolatine...
Le débat oppose principalement la France, qui utilise majoritairement « pain au chocolat » (84%), au sud-ouest de la France et au Québec, qui préfèrent « chocolatine ». Cette viennoiserie à pâte feuilletée levée est la même, et le choix du terme dépend surtout de la région géographique, les deux étant compris.
Les Québécois qui utilisent "pain au chocolat" ont peut-être simplement trop écouté de Joe Dassin...

- Chocolatine : Principalement dans le Sud-Ouest (Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Occitanie) et le terme courant au Québec.
- Pain au chocolat : Utilisé dans le reste de la France et la majorité du monde francophone.
- Origines :La controverse est ancienne, le terme chocolatine ayant des racines possibles dans le Gascon ou l'adaptation de l'autrichien
Schokoladencroissant.
- Peu importe l'appellation, il s'agit d'une pâtisserie composée d'une pâte levée feuilletée, semblable à celle du croissant, fourrée au chocolat.

My simple answer to this is I just point and say that one. I don't care what it's called.
or I'll just call it a chocolate roll. I only attempt french if I have to. If I'm the consumer, my french is turned off.(That's the end to the previous post, now my own Bitching rant.)
My personal rant is with the french laws having become rediculous over time.
I'll attempt comunication in French verbally with the sweeties I see who win my affections to bother putting i the effort for.
But it's an instant not happening when someone reaches out and trys to DEMAND I respond to them in French. I DGAF if this is Quebec, or Montreal, I am not going to respond back in French ever. Use 'Google Translate' like I have to, or leave me alone.
MY BITCH IS THE DEMAND!!!! and my internal reaction to that demand. They demand, and I cut them off. It's as simple as that, but it is my internal rant reaction to being DEMANDED.
How do you like it when people DEMAND things of you, when you are incapapable of it, and are fed up of trying. It's the unwillingness to accept someone doesn't, because they can't, and not accept the equal struggle.

It's my take when I am being demanded of it, as opposed to because it is someone I want to put the effort in for. And I don't care enough about money for it to be for that reason. It needs to be the person I am willing for not the job.
It is the bitching thread and is the thing I tend to get most frusterated with. People acting entitled that I must, when I don't GAF who they even are yet. It's a distasteful way to present themselves.
Edit: I would say there wonderful providers I have met, have been worth the effort, I'm lucky they speak English with me or I would struggle to understand. There's a reason it frusterates me.

I'm shocked ... Well as a client at best you could say your English is bad so you prefer French if she could. But requiring someone to speak French is next level in the industry lolMy simple answer to this is I just point and say that one. I don't care what it's called.

Feels like they are from the Office québécois de la langue française (OQLF) ...
I get their mentality, and why. But it rubs me the wrong way.
The ones who mention their English is bad, we can often get along with a translator during writing, and in person we get to adore the efforts each of us puts in when trying to communicate with Fringlish. It's cute and adds to why I refer to them as sweeties. We find a way.
I felt so called out while refering to my reaction to 1 kind of French interaction, when they 'demand'. Even after I let them know politely I struggle with French. Yes when someone demands, my reaction is going to be an FU reaction.
