Belgium for Dummies:



Rofl!

So small, yet so complicated. But I love my country anyway > belgian chocolate and fries!

What's special or weird about your country?

Lol! What a strange country indeed XD

My home country is Canada, and to be honest, we're too new to have developed anything really strange. But the quality of life is great and I love our healthcare system. Hm.....what else is special about us..... Poutine and maple syrup XD lol. What's the weirdest part of our country? Justin Bieber T.T Oh, and maybe the fact that Canada has the highest rate of pot users ;P

Today I'm going to teach you a little bit about New Zealand.

The sun is always shining... Somewhere, but at the same time it's also always raingin somewhere else. (or even in the same place sometimes) Right here and now, it's shining.

We're sport mad. As a whole really. Some of us will deny it, but we always know the name of at least one all black. (That's the rugby team) The ABs are our celebrities, we don't use actors or musicians to advertise, we use rugby players.

The drinking culture is mostly beer, so get to like Montieths and Speights as soon as you're eighteen. the sheep outnumber you, so on country roads, they have right of way, oh, and so do the cows.

A note about ordering takeaways. You do not have "Fries" with anything. They are CHUPS. And sometimes they come with FUSH. Or a hot dog, which is a battered sausage on a stick, not a savaloy in a bun.

To pronounce the name of a town, go like this... Does it start with whak? Then begin by saying "Fuck"
Tane, is "Ta - nay" so a town called Whakatane is "Fuck a ta - nay" Alright?

If someone calls you a "Good Cunt." Do not get offended, it is a compliment. Similarly with "Good Bitch" It's the "Good" That gives it away. If you are called these names without the word Good in front of them, then watch yourself.

Sorry about any swear words in this.... Simple truth.

:rofl: haha nice... my country isn't all that "great or bad"... but we've got some random "forms" of a single language scattered all over the place.

It's also very very hard to shop in a different area because the exact same company could have 15 different names depending where in the country you are =.=

My brain.............just broke.

-crawls in a corner to cry/glue the pieces back together-

Confused Cat Eye is confused.

That's way too much governmental things on the same level for me.

And french fries with mayo is alright (though I don't dip all my fries lol)

@ Wandering Poet :Whereabouts are you?

I should make a list :)

@Carzee: that's interesting stuff :o
Belgium is a beer country too.

In Belgium, the purchase age and drinking age for distilled and strong spirits (greater than 22%) is 18 years. There is no drinking age for other alcoholic beverages; 16 year olds can buy these in stores but cannot order or buy them in bars. However, if an older person orders those drinks and passes them to a less than 16 year old, no law is violated.[39]

@Poet: where do you live?

O.o woops... uhh the U.S.
