> "they really don't speak English ;-)"
I had it on the tip of my tongue, but I did not want to sound too offensive; although I dread to say it, it is quite true; however, it's not uncommon to hear people at least trying.

- "Apartment quality is really really bad": no always true, like in any other major city (try NYC),
- "The weather is awful, it rains 40% of the days": the same,
- "food quality is abysmal": very true (only applies to restaurants, supermarket food is standard),
- "Parisian being grumpy": fair enough,
- "pretending not to speak English": I don't think that's true (but it's hard to objectively assess).
