   Obviously you’ve never been to the Netherlands, Vinnie. There are black people there, not many, but they’re there.

   Hey Tiga! Please don’t generalize. This is a joke… in Europe most people know what Thanksgiving is but not what it means to you guys. Black Friday … didn’t even know there was one, or what it meant. Don’t work yourselves into a corner.

   Dude, do I need to draw a diagram? OK. Let me.

   He was acting pretty ignorant about the US.

   I in turn mocked it by acting ignorant about the Netherlands.

   See? It’s called sarcasm. I promise I’m not dumb enough to believe there are no black people in tulipland.

    Hey Don, I lived in Holland for 2 years in 1st and 2nd grade. Isn’t St. Nick’s sidekick named Zwarte Piet, which literally translates to Black Pete?

    @Tiga, the rest of the world needs to hate someone, right now the US is No1 and its run by a donkey, so yeah the rest of the world hates you. But don’t worry because you’ll soon be let off the hook and we can all start hating China or something (Yue Xue watch out!)

    @Vinny, just pick up a book on Dutch colonialism and you’ll figure out under what circumstances the Dutch African population came to exist.

    @Don, just like Loren said, take everything with a double pinch of salt around here, serious conversations never seem to happen…now I wonder why.

    @Vinnie,

    Chill, dude. Maybe I was being sarcastic, too.

    I know you’re a smart guy– but possibly even some ’smart’ people think there are no blacks in the Netherlands, or maybe they simply never thought about it.

    I said it for their benefit– no offense to you.;-)

    Sorry I misspelled your name, Vinny.

    I’m used to spelling it the other way, me being a Vinnie.;-)

    I think we’re caught in some kind of infinite sarcasm loop
