I play it after the Sicilian, since E4 is the meta at 300

I'd recommend another approach: Nc3, Nge2, d3, g3, Bg2, O-O, h3, and only later on playing f4. Everyone and their mother knows the Grand Prix. This variation is usually a surprise for the Sicilian player.

I don’t have the inside scoop on whatever is going on on the internet, so tell.

I had an edgy Modern Defence phase. You're better off playing e5.

The French is like a bad addiction. I've played it quite a bit in the past. Trust me: it is NOT worth it. 9 times out of 10, your position sucks and you have the dumbest light-squared bishop ever.
