In more news from Why Amerika Can’t Have Nice Things, the Dutch are leading the way with this new sports hall. You’re probably thinking, “Huh? We build such crap all the time in the States! High schools and universities are constantly … Continue reading →

The Russian Invasion is putting the squeeze on the EU

Posted on March 5, 2022 by Steve

From my friend Jeremy earlier today when he went to fill up for a trip to referee a match at a place I figure the trains don’t get to easily or at all. To give you a more American understanding … Continue reading →

Assholism is an international language

Posted on October 20, 2020 by Steve

Sadly, this is not from the porch of an American apartment building, it’s from the Netherlands courtesy of my friend living there. He didn’t go up to the townhouse to see if it belonged to an ex-pat or a Dutch … Continue reading →

Dutch Cheetos with a little dig at ‘Murica

Posted on July 8, 2020 by Steve

Spotted by Jeremy over there in the Netherlands. I’m guessing this is their equivalent of my favorite, Cheetos. Obviously, our marketing and association doesn’t work since the Dutch word for “cheese” is kaas, not sure what “chee” means there, so I … Continue reading →

Dolls/Robots are getting a little too real?

Posted on June 13, 2020 by Steve

Earlier this week, a Dutch road inspector thought he spotted a dead body in the bushes (your browser may offer to have Google translate intervene). Fortunately, it was just a sex doll somebody ditched. The doll was removed and hopefully … Continue reading →

The side that came with the main course

Posted on June 6, 2020 by Steve

So my friend Jeremy ordered fast food recently in the Netherlands. Nevermind the sandwich/burger/hot dog thing he ordered, he said it was a letdown; instead of fries, potato chips or a full serving of onion rings, he got this. Spring … Continue reading →

Pasta found in the Netherlands that’s special!

Posted on December 19, 2019 by Steve

As you can see from the label, whenever you buy this brand/package of pasta, you must give five ravioli to me. I prefer them to be cooked and covered with an Alfredo sauce. A chicken-based broth is acceptable too. In … Continue reading →

Ummm…not even close!

Posted on June 12, 2019 by Steve

American food may have many shortcomings given our obesity, poor health and probable constant fatigue. But we do not, ever, EVER, package hot dogs in a can. Those gross little “vienna sausages,” Somara loves which make me want to hurl. … Continue reading →

Dutch potato chips’ flavor

Posted on February 7, 2018 by Steve

Been a while since I shared one of these I have lifted from my friends the Derrs. So just what the hell is “Classic Burger” flavor when it comes to potato chips? I’m guessing it’s plain-jane potato (with salt) since … Continue reading →

Dutch Doritos’ flavor

Posted on January 12, 2018 by Steve

Makes me worry what they call our “regular” flavor and is there an “uncool” American flavor like “Ugly American”…it’s loud, boorish and smells like Fake News!

Frozen pizza in the Netherlands

Posted on December 30, 2017 by Steve

I’m starting a new subcategory for Pictures called “Dutch Stuff” that will be dedicated to the funny, weird, odd, take your pick, products my friends living there find. To kick it off, one of my favorite foods, pizza. I’m guessing … Continue reading →
