thanks, you've just proven forsyth@vitanuova.com's point:

    pauvre [the poor thing] con [bastard]

    <empathy>
    the poor bastard
    </empathy>

'con' is _very_ complicated.  in the south they use it very
differently to how they use in paris.

for bonus points, try the phrase:

    ...  la con

references: ~10 years in france and le dictionaire LAROUSSE.

but what would i know about it?

What do you know about France, Major?  You're from goddamn New Jersey.
