STRANGE things I STILL don't understand about life in France

Even after living in France for years, there are some things that still confuse me about life here. There are many aspects of life in France and French culture that make so much sense… like cheap wine and cheese, affordable healthcare for all, and that whole work/life balance thing. And then there are other French things that will leave you scratching your head. Most of the things I don't understand aren’t that serious but I’d like to share them with you so you’re more informed and know what to expect if you find yourself living or traveling in France.
