Most people from the rest of France also despise the Parisians, there’s something infuriating about them.

Since all the American karens are concentrated in Paris, the people in the suburbs are much nicer.

Parisians look down to the rest of France, they even have a word to describe any area of France that isn’t Paris: “la province”, they use it all the time and any one else is annoyed by this word because it sounds really insulting for some reason.

Probably the rampant reckless driving and disregard for other people’s property.

Having been to Paris myself not too long ago, their rudeness is far overhyped. They were actually quite pleasant to us for the most part, only a handful of interactions that I would consider rude, mostly from street scammers. Maybe I just got lucky or missed some social cues, but I’m not sure where this idea of the openly contemptuous average Parisian comes from.
