weird, all the dutch folks I know just smoked obsessively and tended to
be unnecessarily tall.
I thought a cigarette was the national uniform :)
That is the typical Southern Dutchman you're talking about -not to be confused
with a Northern Dutchman -obviously. Anyhow, Northerns just drink coffee,
beer, eat raw meat and stay out all night -possibly dressed as stated before.
It's a heritage / cultural difference I suppose, the north and south being so
far apart and all, with this big-ass river in between and dozens of dikes to
cross... not to mention this huge war the in which the north had to be
defended against the south... I think it was 1944?
