Is it the sprinkles on toast or their ruthless colonization of Indonesia that gave them away?
If it's the whole lack of umbrella thing, you see that here too. No one carries umbrellas.

Well, their evil ways are over now.
The days of candied anise seed on toast are a thing of the past!

(Btw, we have male and femal versions on them because the traditional food you get when you are visiting who has a newborn baby is candied anise seed on round toasted bread (beschuit met muisjes) and the colour will be dependent on the baby's sex.)

There’s my list. Let me add something that I found in a tourist brochure given out at the Schiphol (SKHIP-hull, not Shiffol!) airport, which I think totally captures the Dutch attitude (I’m paraphrasing because I don’t have it here):
* Please keep in mind that not all of the women you see in the windows in the Red Light District are really women.
* If something bad happens to you, please find a policeman/policewoman and explain the situation to us. Please do not be embarrassed - we have really seen it all before. You couldn’t possibly shock us.

Yep. If you see someone with an umbrella 'round here, chances are they are a tourist or its their first year here.
Except for the food, being Dutch seems very nice

Does this mean that they are all cats? Or that all cats are Dutch?

The Belgians are indeed a weird lot.
I know, I married into a family of weird Belgians.

Re: The shocking truth about the Dutch!!1!
I've been to the Nether regions. I've heard Flem spoken and seen Walloonies wander the streets. Bruxelles is a very different city from Amsterdam; it seems staid, mature, and formal. Amsterdam seems clean but informal and casual. It's rather like Bruxelles appeals to the travelling businessman, while Amsterdam is the city of college drop-outs.
They are all fixated upon their nether regions.
