    If I had a dollar for every American mentioning Germans/WW2 when I told them I’m Dutch, I would be retired now.

      as a northern european I’d ask how many dikes do you own

      edit: dikes is not a spelling mistake (i think)

        “dyke” is British English and “dike” is American English for a levee or flood bank. I don’t own any of those because they belong to the government.

        Both spellings are also slang for butch lesbians, and owning those has been illegal for about 160 years now.
