I know I will think of more as soon as this is posted, but for starters:

Good things about Paris:

4) Paris is walkable
5) The Mayor Bertrand Delanoe

4) Oyster cards and buses
5) Doctors who discuss and explain

Bad things about Paris
1) Vehicles moving or parked on the pavements
2) Overpriced 'New World' wines (in fact any wine that is not French)
3) Parisien rudeness, offhandedness, unfriendliness, unhelpfulness
