By yourself?
Do the tourist things.
Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame de Paris, the Louvre, Champs-Élyséea, Père-Lachaise, Musée d'Orsay, the Concierge and the chapel there, drink wine at Chelsea Georges and such. Just to see it. Also try to walk around as much as possible. That's how I found Hotel Hugo. Just got bored and took a random route and got hungry. This was before cellphones though.
If you find Hotel Hugo walk in and ask the old lady for a house special. I can't remember where it was but was the damn best mystery meat I have eaten.
As for the language barriers, can't really say that English have failed me when I have failed my French.... Which is a lot these days.

The Louvre
If you like Gardens, tea and pastries, Great Mosque of Paris
Rue montorgueil, cause who doesn't like a food market
Eiffel tower Is pretty much mandatory.
If you drink, hit up Moonshiner. Its a "hidden" speakeasy.
I speak french, however you don't need to worry about being fluent in it when it comes to the locals, just make sure you're polite about it, an excuse me and hello goes a long way before you say anything else.

All this. Just be polite and enjoy the city, it's probably the most gorgeous place on earth from a nightlife perspective.

With all the blood and dick jokes you'd think they'd be allowed to show

Also I understand that they probably didn't want to get any "blackface" controversy but it's kinda jarring that
her "black suit" just turned out to be partly covered skin. The girls should've been in full body black/red/green paint for an Aku motif

That thread is not good for my health Jesus Christ. Most be some of the most poorly hidden racism I've seen and it's about skin tone in a video game. Why the fuck does this upset people.
Black people need afros and black noses otherwise they're tanned, dark Asians, or aliens

People still acting a fool I'm that MK8 thread? Lol
Hell if I know.
I just popped in there and it's full pants on head asshattery.

Big lips too, can't forget those! Jesus people actually want Black people to represented as racist caricatures or they don't count.
You should know what gaming side was gonna give you

It's time we make a game that's unapologetically black. So black that it hurts souls. We need this and we need this now.

Good morning BCT.
Welcome! Yea those type of threads can be a pain to even read. I've been busy with RL stuff to the point that I know engaging with some GAF threads would tilt me. Whenever I have a clear mind I engage with them though.
Get Out the Game. So good and black you can't ignore it.

Morning DM. How's everything?
I seriously want to do this. We can craft a story and everything. We'll need to pick a genre, but that shouldn't be too hard

Life is good. I had leg day at the gym this morning and then did grocery shopping. I'll probably stroll downtown for a bit closer to noon. How's things on your end?
Souls-type genre. Ha imagine if Bloodborne 2 was filled with Black characters. Too many people would rage.

I gotta go grocery shopping and hit the gym. I'll be at Costco though.
Things are good. My vacation ends tomorrow. Back to work and that long commute. Have a huge presentation due week after this, so...heaven help us all.
This will work. Gives the flexibility for enemies and worlds.

So..how go the squid wars?

Asian cultures eat squid, thus they are intensely tanned Asians that have been cursed to turn into one of their favorite meals. So I've heard
I didn't get any of the gumbo 😥😥😥😥

Blatant racism gone unchecked. You can refer to black people as "afro people" and mods won't do jack.
