Sinterklaas isn't Dutch, you big poof. :D Why do you think he arrives on that big steamboat every year ? :D

Dreamer128 02-29-2004 08:55 AM

Sure he is. He used to get thrown out of the country once a year. But since he kept coming back, they decided to make it easy on themselves by giving him the Dutch Nationality.

Took you long enough to make that up. :D

Dreamer128 02-29-2004 08:59 AM

No comment ;)

Anyway, I call upon all Ironworks to rally behind us. We have to beat those Hungarians :D

Nah, check again, mate [img]tongue.gif[/img] I posted my poll a full minute before you :D

ROTFLMAO!!! Looks like so far, the poll's been answered by Dutchies mostly :D

Oh, and shouldn't you have included a "none of the above" option? Confident in our fame, aren't ya? ;)

Are you SURE santa claus has Dutchie blood coursing through his veins? :D I was always brought up to believe he was Hungarian :D Damn, you famous Dutch you, I've heard of more of those people than I'd like to admit - you could've put more members of the dutch football team, but that would surely wipe out all competition so I'm glad you're a good competitor :D

Actually, when we were all little Dutchies, the grown up Dutchies made us believe Sinterklaas is from Spain, and comes to bring us presents every year on December 5.

Then, when us little ones grew older, we found out that Sinterklaas is in fact a dressed up Dutch adult, leaving us little ones with a sour taste in our mouths.... they have been lying to us the whole time.

Then when we grew a little more older, we found out that on top of the lies, the information was false. Sinterklaas isn't from Spain, but from Turkey.

Which explains the amount of angry young teenagers in the Netherlands. :D

You should have added Jaap de Hoop Scheffer as well, plus an extra question asking non-Dutchies how they pronounce his name. ;)
