It's #HandsomeThursday ...Dutch nationalist avoids boat, decides to take to sea...discovers he has developed GILLS ...only a few centuries of maritime life means that some Dutch now born with gills/webbed feet. Most support Wilders and Orban

The "whypipo food is bad" smear does have some truth behind it in the sense that American cuisine ~1930-90 was pretty bad. And many people still eat packaged mac & cheese, inane casseroles; then there's the wonderbread meme...it's genuinely bad bread
