This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The Dutch, not content with merely driving the sea back, now seek to taunt and humiliate it

OP's image needs to be captioned with your comment and then ever so slightly jpegified. chef's kiss

Countryballs, the Dutch are asking their neighbors for clay. All saying no in disgust. When Dutch ball goes to the sea, there is no objection. Dutch ball claims clay. I would say it should be 'geef' instead of 'gib', but who am I to judge.

EDIT: Linky as tall images don't do well in web, unless you are an ant.

I have no idea why you think it would be improved by slight adding of jpeg, but I agree, and I don't know why. It feels like meme salt. Or maybe meme umami

It's a matter of time before we start manually adding iFunny banners at the bottom for authenticity

Not unlike the mighty Beaver, the Dutch have an instinctual drive to bend water to their will

And much like the beaver, many of our artificial flavors are made from the expressed anal glands of the Dutch.

Do you really? Because I hear from Europeans they hate you.

I joke because personally I love the Dutch, but not necessarily Amsterdam. Such a great country.

The Danes have you beat in friendliness though I think.... They're so damn happy I can't understand it.

You're thinking of a caricature from Austin powers.
