Eh, I only see old people talking in it. Most of the younger people know key phrases and words and a lot of these people sure do love to use them.

I, on the other hand, don't. In fact, when I see Cajun memes, i get a little annoyed. I enjoy our food but I feel like the memes are stupid and even the obsession with the roots is annoying...

Cajun...like someone trying to say Arcadian with food in their mouth.

Creole isn't french


Where do you see people talking about Creole? isn't Creole just a mix of culture and genetics?

That's too bad. I find French graffiti really interesting.

I was thinking of travelling to Quebec and using Google translate. Apparently one of the definitions for my tag in French is "rper" lol

Louisiana really is a unique culture of the United States. Only state where French is/was spoken, created a new culture (Cajun), the only state with its own creole....I really hope they try to preserve that.
