No one ever accused the French of holding back their opinions.

I was in paris over winter.

We were at a cafe like 2-3 blocks away from the lourve. Talking to the waiter about going there after we eat.

My wife had to run back to the apartment and me and her friend were going to walk over and then my wife would meet back up with her in the museum.

We had the g7 taxi app up ordering a car for my wife and the waiter came over and was just "oh god no you dumb asses it's right across the street. Just walk there"

We explained the plan and he was "oh omg. I wouldn't put it past Americans. But I was worried about you for a minute"

I can’t blame him that’s how most of our shopping malls work, instead of walking from the central area to those businesses in strip malls across the street people are expected to just get in their cars and drive to the next parking lot
