So a former colonial power influenced many things on Earth? Surprising.
Comment on I knew it
eatthecake@lemmy.world 6 months agoMy housemate is dutch. He will find a dutch connection to everything on the planet. My coffee is dutch, the stockmarket is dutch, cheese sandwiches are dutch, the computer chips are dutch, nasi goreng is dutch, it’s all fucking dutch in his mind. If aliens landed he would probably claim that they came because of the dutch.
He would also like everyone to remember that the nazi’s stole the dutch people’s bicycles and how dare anyone not know this.

Well, to be honest, apart of the aliens thing, everything you said is true.
So how is your housemate wrong?
And aliens? That’s an American thing. Only Americans are abducted and only America gets attacked by aliens in the movies. (And South-Africa)

London gets attacked on TV a lot, though.

I don’t think they’re necessarily saying their housemate is wrong. I took it as them just pointing out how it gets old fast.
