After French voters sent a message against sweeping austerity measures by electing Socialist François Hollande president, Jon Stewart visited his list of “things I don’t understand about France.”

Why, when you buy a baguette, do you only get half a bag to put it in? I mean, bag is in the name. Why do you put your most hunchbacked people in charge of ringing your heaviest bells. Do you really think your kids should be drinking wine? Why do you have so much trouble walking against the wind? How windy does it get there?”

And, finally, “Gérard Depardieu.”
