As someone who was born in France(Laseyne) of a Polish father, German mother and who immigrated to this country in 61 to definitly find the American dream which we did by the way by breaking our asses,learning English etc. I needed a pretty good sense of humour being raised in NYC and catching jokes/teases etc. about my background. As far as I'm concerned a little ribbing,joking is all good. It's when it turns to critical or nasty then things turn to ***** pretty rapidly. I would think that every country has it's good and bad. When we loose our sense of humour it doesn't matter what you ride, you will always be ticked at life and the world. As they say "merde alors' lets ride.....
