2.e5 IS bad. 2.  d4 d5 3.e5 is fully playable tho.

@thrillerfan plays 2.d4 almost every time. When he doesn’t play 2.d4, he plays 2.d3.

 

I just took a look at your games. You almost never played 2.e5, preferring 2.d4 yourself.

GMs get excellent results as Black by playing 2....d6 or 2...c5.

I always played e5 back when I didn't know any theory, and I'll still use it. And thrillerfan always explains how e5 is actually challenging for black based on new theory.

Try the Horwitz attack Papa-Ticulat Gambit it's really fun and often you will end up with opposite side castling and a very dynamic and aggressive game that throws french defense players completely off their theory and comfort zone.
