It seems most people I've associated with, past or present, took French.
Zidone I know took French, Kaz I think took it (I don't talk to you anymore lol), and most of my non-Chinese, non-Japanese real life friends took French. Actually, my Japanese teacher/friend learned French.
french seems to be the language of choice among [glow=black,0,penis]intellectuals[/glow]

cities tend to have classes that aren't exclusively european languages
december's school (los angeles) has a chinese class and a lot of schools in pittsburgh teach japanese
i've actually heard of more schools teaching japanese than italian, since the only one i've ever heard about was a neighboring school in tennessee of all places
Spanish was the only available language to Take

I know the magnet school here did.
French. Spanish was available, but only through a teacher connected to the school via TV, who was actually hundreds of miles south.

lol what
i don't think you're ever more than a hundred miles from a spanish speaker if you live in any country with a population density over 1/km^2
My high school only offered Spanish, and all if the rednecks were too proud of merica to learn the language of foreigners. Especially the foreigners that ate taking all their jobs doodhuh;
They're all dumb as fucking rocks
But yea I excelled in two years of Spanish because its all there was
I took a semester of French in college but the professor was dreadful
two semester-years of Latin in high school because it was the only foreign language that would fit my schedule
French because sartre and rimbaud and whatever. I quit after 3 years (including 8th grade which was same school as high school) because the teacher was really awful, though I had the chance to go to France during that time and actually got some use out of what I'd learned.

Spanish for 2 years.
Most important words I've learned: puta and el mericon
most importnt words in spanish i know: chingo de dinero
and cerveza
My school offered Spanish, French, and Italian, but only like one class each of the latter two.
I wasn't honestly particularly interested in it, but I took Spanish. I think I considered French at one point, but was discouraged from it. Of course, in Florida, Spanish is the foreign language most people are interested in encouraging.

At my school they offer "VHS" (virtual high school) where you can take almost any course you want that that's one of them apparently.
Virtual High School in my state offers Chinese, but not Japanese.
I think there are one or two high schools in my county which offer Japanese.
i studied german for three years and french for one because that's what I decided to do I'm not sure why.
In high school, I took two years of Spanish; my other choices were French and German. I knew Spanish was the easiest to learn, and in Texas, it's often applicable. I was required to take another two years of foreign language for college, so now I'm taking French.
Because I'm a pretentious white person who feels a connection to European countries he's never been to, I'd like to learn German, too. But so far, French has been an interesting language to learn, and I think I'd like France or Belgium just as much as Germany or Austria.
English, Cantonese, French, Polish
I quit the polish class in 4 months
I quit the cantonese class in 1 year

this is impressive
French because I make terrible decisions.
I took French at first because I had taken it in middle school. I took it then because I had a lot of hispanics in my classes who always spoke spanish and i got annoyed.
I switched to German after having an awful french teacher and I realized I would not be able to pass french IV.
I know minimal Italian and a bit less Chinese. akudood;
