You know what the Dutch like?

Regular readers of The Monstro know I sometimes like to invent random blog "strings" that share a theme that loosely ties them together. These last until I grow bored or simply dormant in my blogging and forget the theme of the latest string.

This time around I've titled my blog string "You know what the Dutch like?" Here I'll be posting information largely (entirely) unsupported by factual evidence about what Dutch people enjoy. Why the Dutch you say? Because everybody likes Dutch people except maybe Belgians and Luxemburgers.

You know what the Dutch like? Maritime trade empires. This is funny because apparently a shipping container company contributed to voting against Prop 8, and if there's one thing we know about the Dutch it's that they're pretty damn accepting of non-traditional sexual practices. One stroll down the Red Light District in Amsterdam will solidify this point. It will also make you question whether the pervasiveness of young, drunken British men in every major European city isn't just the latest ploy of Her Majesty to bring back the Empire.

So the Dutch like sea trade! Next up, buckle shoes.
