Why do the French only eat one egg?

[Roland99]

Because one egg is an oeuf!

[soothsayer]

1. Ha

[Mme. Defarge]

2. You didn't give me a chance!

[Le Roi de Pot]

3. C'est tres drole !

[Aristus]

4. Classic!

[Roland99]

6. Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

Started watching West Wing a few days ago

[Aristus]

7. My favorite TV series of all time.

Just started my umpteenth re-watch.

How far along are you?

[Roland99]

8. S2E1 just started

[Aristus]

11. One of the best.

And there's still a hell of a ride left.

***SPOILER***

Aaron Sorkin, the show's creator and head writer, left after the fourth season. The quality of the writing went down substantially after that. Watch Seasons 5-7 if you want to. I watched them through once, never again, and simply pretend they don't exist.

[Roland99]

13. Duly noted!

[DashOneBravo]

9. I loved that show also.

[PJMcK]

5. Mon dieu! (n/t)

[GoneOffShore]

10. I knew you were going there. Now go to your room. You know what you've done.

[Roland99]

14. Oookkkaaaaayyyy

[7wo7rees]

12. L'oeuf Is All You Need!

[Polybius]

15. I'd probably get this joke if I knew what oeuf meant

Or if I could pronounce it.

[Roland99]

16. ...

[Polybius]

17. Ok I looked it up

It seems everyone here got it but me. If oeuf a common enough word to Americans that most know what it means?

[Roland99]

18. Maybe not?

[bif]

19. Here's a better setup line...

Why don't the French ever eat two eggs?
