You know you’ve been living in France too long if…

- You know G20 is not a music band but a supermarket
- You know when 2 people seem to be arguing in the street, they are just having a normal conversation
- You call people by their first name only if you know him/her very well
- The feeling of the just-made-warm-bread in your hand doesn’t make you want to scream “I love being in France!”
- The average expresso coffee served in café doesn’t make your heart beats fast anymore, for an entire day
- Talking with your hand is the only way to express what you really mean
- Teasing people is the only way to be funny. What? You don’t think it’s funny?!
- You think 5 annual holiday weeks are well-deserved! And why don’t they make it 6 weeks hu?!
- You measure things in meters, kilograms and litres
- You don’t understand why you would have to wait for the light to turn green before crossing the street.
- It’s ok to give wine to a kid
- Not being able to smoke a cigarette wherever you want is against freedom of rights … regardless to non-smokers
- You are not shocked anymore by the insignificant French customer service.

The great shot is from this site
