Quebecois scoff at the official french rule

The English would end up using rhyming slang for it. They'd call it "the stop" as in "stop and stare [rhymes with air]" or some other insufferable thieves' cant.
Stick the air con on

Meanwhile in Quebec the language police has decided that "climat" is too close to "climate" and must be banned, and anyone who disagrees gets the death penalty. This caused an outrage in parliament so now the official policy is only every second disagreement gets the death penalty.

Calls pasta, pasta.
Quebecois language police :
And I took that personally
People who say “aircon” nonchalantly whistling as they try to walk away unnoticed
Okay but no joke people call it "La clime" in French. This meme is too real!
theyd call it le calisse de freezé imarche pu tabarnac ostie
French is such a stupid language I cant tell if that is real french or not.
I did 5 years of it and they call it la clim for short (pronounced cleem). Climot sounds very real to me as well, but I don't think it is.
I took a year of French in high school and recognize most of those words, so I can firmly say maybe.
It kinda looks like a French version of Beamtendeutsch (lit. civil servant's German).
Aside from a spelling error, pretty sure it’s proper French
There's 2 typos. But it's pretty close to correct.
But it underestimates people's laziness that leads to shortening words, which happens in all languages.
Oh the French are so silly
still doing this "shit foreign people say" routine?
Oh, worse than that. They're making fun of our climmy!
Yeah, stop having fun!
