Can someone tell me what they think of when they think about the Netherlands?
You cannot pick:
- Windmills (we do have those a lot, yes)
- Cheese (we love our cheese and we do know how to make it!)
- Drugs (it's legal but it's not common to use them, like people seem to think :D)
- Wooden shoes (almost no one wears them)
- Tulips (they're not even dutch, ffs).

Just curious :)

Hookers, and the Anne Frank museum (which is just her house I believe). Also, great technical football players, but no great football teams any more (Ajax is more known for their acadamy rather than their actual team these days)

Very flat. Van Gogh. Gay policemen. Lax drug laws. Clogs. Annoying fake American accents delivered in the style of Shaun Connery...yesh I think sho!
Expensive prostitutes, although the ones over the other side of the canal are cheaper and far dirtier. Cheeky street punks who try to go through your pockets because they think you're out of your head on drugs and you won't notice. Cheeky street punks who don't like being smacked in the mouth for being cheeky street punks. Casino security are far too uptight for their own good. Sleazy bars. Free trams.

The only thing left after the contents of that list is, brothels, as mentioned above.
