This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The Dutch, not content with merely driving the sea back, now seek to taunt and humiliate it

Not unlike the mighty Beaver, the Dutch have an instinctual drive to bend water to their will

And much like the beaver, many of our artificial flavors are made from the expressed anal glands of the Dutch.
