Re: firefox thinks im french

Try going to Tools(in Firefox) > Options> Content tab; At the bottom you should see Languages, click on the 'Choose' button and select French and Remove.

I'm not sure why you get french lang page...
You might try to clear(delete) the cookies, and visit to facebook again.
