Air frickin' France

On the flight home from Paris a few days ago, one of the attendants announced over the intercom the creation of a new frickin' flyer program. It took me a few seconds to realize she wasn't cursing at us, but was instead talking about a frequent flyer program.

(Yes, I understand that I am in no position to make fun of the accent of a French woman speaking English since my point-and-grunt grasp of French sounds like the noise made by a drunk monkey.)
