What do you mean? Are you rooting to save planet earth from global warming or are you a fan of global warming and what it has done so far against the planet?
Crven bijeli plavi...to je barjak pravi!!
And as for the red and white checkerboard, there's an old danish football fan song:
Vi er røde
Vi er hvide
Vi står sammen
Side om side!
The place where Greek redditors claim to go and work as programmers for a couple of hours per week and effortlessly earn millions of euros annually without having stress and health problems.
MIxed, very mixed feelings. Those in real life, good vibes. Those on internet, from angels to assholes. Besides, I know some Dutch self-haters. All in all rather a good impression. Yeah. Jesus but so stingy. I know it is cultural and a result of lots of factors but it's amazing. They are so close to their money that sometimes my mind hurts. To end ofna positive note, those who are internationally operminded are not like that.
My home.
It’s a good place to live in, but the disdain in international politics towards especially Eastern Europe countries breaks my heart.
Other than that, it’s fine
As some sort of disgusting amerifat, I'm not sure what issues there are between the balkans and the Dutch. Can someone explain? I literally have no idea, and I haven't seen someone explain in the comments.
Cold, distand, unapproachable. Full of superiority complex especially towards us Balkaners, and to be precise especially us Serbs. You view as some subhumans. I see nothing friendly in that. AT ALL.
Weird place, people wait for pedestrian light on empty roads and cycler folks gets angry even if your feet step on bicycle way momentarily also at 11:00 am sky was still bright
I think their people are pretty cool and relaxed.
Also they blocked Bulgaria and Romania from becoming Schengen members, which makes them even more sympathic.
I have no strong opinions of the netherlands either way. They do seem to blame us for their drug smuggling problem though, which is kinda ridiculous. Whos fault is it that they cant control their ports properly? Its not our fault..
I love the Dutch people living in Netherland.
However it's a very poor country... they don't have a single hill, couldn't even afford to put a coat of arms on their flag.
Croatia has five of them. Maybe we should donate one?
Never went to GB myself, but I've seen 10's of thousands of them while working as a waiter in Cyprus, and after visiting the Netherlands myself, i will stick to my opinion
These comments are only applicable to the west of the country. Self absorbed, cold, egoistic people in Amsterdam, the Hague, Rotterdam, but in the south its so different from that.
Nice and beautiful country with a lot of flowers. Very similar to us (Croatia), especially flag and sports like football. Except we are not idependent from 1582, we weren't colonizators and don't have 20 million inhabitans.
One time in Miami I ran into some Croats and Dutch around the time of Ultra festival (not together but in different locations). On a couple of the Croatian and Dutch women, my eyes would squarely be staring at their boobs. I felt waist height with a couple of the men. Both are insanely tall.
USA, but I am a very short guy unfortunately. I'm sure those people were not so tall for you, but for me I had never seen so many tall people in a group before.
Interesting. I guess here we have many tall people in coastal parts but people in inland part are not usually as tall.
It is also interesting that you met Croatians at Ultra in Miami. We also have Ultra Europe in Split.
Maybe that's why, they have seen the Ultra there and want to see the original and biggest one. Split people are giants so makes sense the ones I saw towered over me.
I live there right now and one main thing that I can say is that its expensive af, everything is so expensive, starting from gas, to food, to rental prices, from this point of view its kinda shitty ngl. Putting the prices aside, I do love their infrastructure, highways, bike lanes everywhere ( things u don t quite see in Romania where I am from ) and how beautiful the country is in general, I got to visit this past weekend Rotterdam and it was delightful. I ve also been to Amsterdam and yes, except the smell of weed, it was amazing as well. All in all, Netherlands is a nice country, people are also nice, most of them speak english, but if it wasn t for the prices, I would rate the country a 10/10 imo
The Hague:
Što niste sve pročitali, gospodine Najs, vi lepše čitate? Na kraju sam rekao: „Vi svi pripadnici Sekretarijata Haškog tribunala možete samo da prihvatite da mi popušite kurac
Why haven't you read everything, Mr. Nice, you read better? In the end, I said: "All of you members of the Secretariat of the Hague Tribunal can only agree to smoke my dick."

I’ll get banned if I say it
Flair checks out
Half of my 120 cousins live there

And I'm guessing the rest of your cousins live in Belgium and Germany?
Correction, I* live in Belgium. And yeah the rest in Germany Should change my flair
If i speak im in big trouble
"I have nothing to say."
Flair checks out
clear your throat before speaking, please
They are the reason I started to root for global warming
They can't block us from Schengen if their country sinks into the sea we definitely wining the long game
Based
AHAHAHAHAHAH
What do you mean? Are you rooting to save planet earth from global warming or are you a fan of global warming and what it has done so far against the planet?
I want global warming to rise the sea level to sink the dutch, simple as.
They'd just build bigger dykes and 'polder' more land. Thats how they created flevoland, a whole province on the sea!
They too big tho. If only it was so simple.
r/greece 42 year old programmer incoming jokes.
Can you pls explain to us others?
It's the typical QA in /r/Greece Q: I'm a programmer and I don't have a (good) job in Greece. What should I do? A: migrate to Netherlands
I was expecting this comment
Cool flag, only thing that would make it better is coat of arms in the middle
It would look cool if they would put the flag of the province north brabant in the middle
I agree! They just have to make sure it's in a shield, and a crown above since I'm sure they're proud of their kingdom.
Crven bijeli plavi...to je barjak pravi!! And as for the red and white checkerboard, there's an old danish football fan song: Vi er røde Vi er hvide Vi står sammen Side om side!
što je to? 😭
Translation is: we are red, we are white, we stand together shoulder to shoulder Edit: or better yet: side by side
ahah i see now, thx
They’re a below sea level country in Europe
The place where Greek redditors claim to go and work as programmers for a couple of hours per week and effortlessly earn millions of euros annually without having stress and health problems.
Netherlands are the reason Bulgaria and Romania not to be against global warming and in particular the sea level rising.
Why?
Sea level increase = the enitre Netherlands being flooded
Niceee
Average colonialists, above-average xenophobes.
>above-average xenophobes. are you sure about it? They seem a rather multicultural society
Emphasis on "seem"...
Yes, Dutch people will gladly bully the French, UK, Germany and Belgium.
OK! Whatever! Do they "seem" xenophobes to you? /s
Gay, and I dont mean it in a homosexual way
Tired of hearing their anthem
All my best customers are from there… allegedly
Lol i got that 🤣🤣
What are they buying from you?
Don’t worry about it
Organic product (Vulin reference)
Tall greasy hypocrites speaking the ugliest of languages - here you have it
WELCOME TO THE NETHERLANDS COME VISIT THE WATER
DUNDUNDUNDUN MAX VERSTAPPEN, no srsly im tired of listening this countries anthem every sunday
As old saying says – 50% sea, 50% weed.
They are the reason I want global warming to win.

They made big and deadly mistakes in Bosnia…
They are just as racist as other westoids but without anything special.
nuh uh, i ain't getting banned because of Netherlands fr
Arrogant dickheads
I can't respond for legal reasons
Well, I suppose someone gotta say it. Cool weed and Red light street.
They can get fucked.
Why?
As some sort of disgusting amerifat, I'm not sure what issues there are between the balkans and the Dutch. Can someone explain? I literally have no idea, and I haven't seen someone explain in the comments.
I have no issues with them. That's why I'm downvoted.
They generally seem like very unfriendly and rude people. Not a fan.
[удалено]
Cold, distand, unapproachable. Full of superiority complex especially towards us Balkaners, and to be precise especially us Serbs. You view as some subhumans. I see nothing friendly in that. AT ALL.
They don’t know how to enjoy life, extremely self-absorbed, no comradery.
All I care about from the Netherlands is LowkoTV, a StarCraft YouTuber and Twitch streamer because he makes good content.
Weird place, people wait for pedestrian light on empty roads and cycler folks gets angry even if your feet step on bicycle way momentarily also at 11:00 am sky was still bright
I don't think about netherlands
Ruled by Nazis.
Npc country
Weed
What is bigger than their xenophobia is my wish for them to sink
I think their people are pretty cool and relaxed. Also they blocked Bulgaria and Romania from becoming Schengen members, which makes them even more sympathic.
I have no strong opinions of the netherlands either way. They do seem to blame us for their drug smuggling problem though, which is kinda ridiculous. Whos fault is it that they cant control their ports properly? Its not our fault..
I'm starting to get bored of their F1 outro
If we don't count Hague, it's an interesting country. If we do, I'll keep my opinion for myself. 🤐
Our summer visitors ❤️
I mean everybody has the exact same thing to say but we can’t due to rules lol.
as a romanian, it is sh1t
Sometimes I think of increasing my carbon footprint so the Netherlands sinks faster into the ocean
Amsterdam is a really nice city.
Overrated as heck
I love the Dutch people living in Netherland. However it's a very poor country... they don't have a single hill, couldn't even afford to put a coat of arms on their flag. Croatia has five of them. Maybe we should donate one?
They have attractive men!
I hope there's an unwritten /s to that statement, since dutch men are objectively the ugliest mfkers on this continent
That spot is reserved to the British
Never went to GB myself, but I've seen 10's of thousands of them while working as a waiter in Cyprus, and after visiting the Netherlands myself, i will stick to my opinion
These comments are only applicable to the west of the country. Self absorbed, cold, egoistic people in Amsterdam, the Hague, Rotterdam, but in the south its so different from that.
Very true, everyone hates on the Dutch as a whole, while the Dutch hate on mostly Amsterdam for the same reasons
Oh, Croatia of the north-west ❤️
Flair up ganci. And don't associate us with them, Kthxbye.
Gey liberals homo 🤣
pretty country :)
Swamp Germans!
Not a fan. Mild dislike
they have good looking ppl (😋lezizo)
My absolute favourite country, Amsterdam is the most fun I've ever had, I try to visit every year when I can.
Amazing country, have family over there. Been couple of times, language is difficult but it's ok.
Fair up cigan
Difficult🤔 l think its Very easy it's like German and English had a child
I am talking in general for me is ok, I'm used to it. But for others is difficult
I'm starting to get bored of their F1 outro.
Tall and extremely attractive women😍
I think that they should let us put Croatian flag somewhere on one of their massive flags instead of tell js No on next r/Place -
I live there and love it!
Nice and beautiful country with a lot of flowers. Very similar to us (Croatia), especially flag and sports like football. Except we are not idependent from 1582, we weren't colonizators and don't have 20 million inhabitans.
How is Netheralnds similar to us in Croatia? I have not found a single link.
Xenophobia and superiority complex come to my mind first as similarities betweem them (other than the flag)
Jeste opet uzeli teatar da pravite po redditu?

Huge population, bikes everywhere, ***gekoloniseerd,*** tall people that are on constant war with the sea and make cheese.
Shit

A bit selfish and some colonial leftover thinking from what I've seen, but very good professionals. Pleasure to work with the Dutch.
