My mother was French and used to play scrabble with my aunts in french. Rather than teach me the language they used it to keep me from knowing what they were talking about. When I entered the room they would switch from English to French. Now, about all the French (spit) comments. Doesn't bother me one bit, in fact I think it's funny. I know it is meant to be humorous, and I am not thin skinned. In fact I may have made one myself.
