“'Oui, mon petit con”
Yes, that’s even more to the point, capo, and to show the officious guy, perhaps with a couple of chevrons on his arm, that you really do have some knowledge of the French language you could follow up with “Va te faire foutre”, which should really impress him, I reckon. No need to have return tickets bought!

Brandon,
Not sure if you got it right, but better safe than sorry... Don't listen to those two guys. Suffice to say that in French (1) “con” basically means “cunt” and (2) “Va te faire foutre” means “go get fucked”. No need to elaborate, I guess... 😊

Yes, it always sounds more “chic” in French... :D. I remember an old story from a colleague of my father's, who was an Indochina war veteran. He was taken prisoner and was roting in a Vietminh POW camp (where conditions were really, really bad). One day the commander of the camp requested some prisoners to teach him a few words in French, to welcome a delegate from the Red Cross who was due to visit the camp. They taught him the sentence “salut mon con, t'as bonne mine” (hello cunt, you're looking good)... I don't know how the story ended.

Thank you for this, I had no idea that it meant "cunt" in French. That would of prob ended badly for me.

The French (traditional) lost their ground many years ago. Nowadays, it's the Nigerian girls (choses / things).

No other choice, unless you are French and have a sweetie, pretending to be waiting for your occasional week end leave (36, 48 or a 72 hour).
