Default Tanguy-fi-ni, La-France- aus-si

Remember the recent French movie Tanguy? There was a 28-year-old
Parisian bebe' who lived very comfortably chez maman et papa, at their
expense naturellement, to the point that the middle-aged couple could
not even baiser in sainte paix. He was dependent, spoiled,
irresponsible and immature, cultivated recondite intellectual
interests getting him nowhere fast, and was insufferably patronizing,
with pretensions to moral superiority, giving others unsolicited
lecons in how to live (now what country does that remind you of?).
His maman, being aroused to bellicosity by the prospect of being
baiser-less, got rid of his favorite fetish t-shirt (maman, ou' est
mon t-shirt?). Oui, maman had thrown it into la pou-belle (le trash,
gahr-bahj).
Inspired by this courageous act. I am taking French leave of:

Alsatian gewurtztraminer- pou-belle
Guerlain's Mitsouko- pou-belle
French books, such as the one on 9/11 plot- pou-belle
Travel to France- Venice alone has more to offer pou-belle
French restaurants- Northern Italian, Chinese, Thai preferable
pou-belle
French clothes- never wore them, c'est facile pou-belle

Only thing is, in the movie there was le happy end anglo-saxon,
because le bebe' is the object of a a reverse adoption by the Chinese
(who approve of single male sons). Can we send toute la France on a
slow boat to China?

The USA.

No. We have too many girls for their liking.

I didn't get a chance to see this film, so I am really glad to know how it
turned out. I shall tell my old college friend who lives in Orange County,
California, and is a good conservative, about this solution. Her
thirty-something son is still living at home, and she and her husband are at
their wits' end as to how to get him up and out.

I think, however, that they might prefer to send him by a plane, rather than
a slow boat. "Slow boat to China" is a cliche. In French we call that "le
cliché."
