France's score card

As my time in France ticks down, some points I've considered after my time here:
• Frenchies take their dogs on holiday with them = awesome
• Paying to use the toilet at Lafayette = wtf
• Helpful towards hitch-hikers = awesome
• All the cheese = awesome
• Walking and hunting trails that overlap (well.. hunting by default really) = wtf
• No persistent waiters = awesome
• Kak expensive train fare = wtf (passing as a 25 y/o and getting reduced deals = awesome)
• Foie gras obsession = wtf
• 30min grocery queues = wtf
• Dedicated wine bars at music festivals = awesome
• Half a baguette acts as a hot dog roll = awesome
• Free music performances in squares = awesome
•. Co-voiturage (carpooling with strangers) = awesome
• City-sponsored free bicycles for residents = awesome
• No fresh milk anywhere = wtf
• Bread with every goddamn meal = wtf
• Everyone smokes. Every. One. = wtf
• Frenchies are down for barn parties = awesome
• Desert is not optional = awesome
• My developing muffin tops = wtf

You did good frenchies, you did good.. good thing I'm starting my camino tomorrow though.
