1. You get to speak three languages, but none of them intelligibly.

2. If other countries want to fight a war, they will do it in your country.

3. You can brew drinks out of fruit, and still call it beer.

4. You are either
a. like the Dutch, just less efficient
b. like the French, just less romantic
c. like the Germans

5. Decent fries. Real mayonnaise. Great chocolate. The best beer.

6. No one knows anything about you, except for the Dutch and French and they make fun of you.

7. More scandals in a week than any other country in a decade.

8. You can drive like a maniac on the road and nobody cares

9. All your famous countrymen are either imaginary, or sex-offenders

10. Face it. It's not really a country, is it?

a few corrections:
Point 2: You might be correct on this one but if so; the Americans and British have to finetune their GPS system. They are a wee bit lost if they are searching Brussels in Irak
Point 3: The fruit is added as a flavour and not the basic ingredient, and it tastes great (did you know that if you would drink one beer every hour you would have to drink about 5 years befor you have tasted every Belgian beer)
Point 9: I didn't know that Adolf Sax was a sex offender. Or is it because of this that Bill Clinton likes to play the saxofoon?
Point 10: Here are 3 exceptions on:

-Behind a "frit" (French fries) and a beer
-During a World championship off Soccer ( when the Belgian team desides to play as it should)
-When under Attack (This is serious ask the German General Command)

Points 7 and 8 (lots of scandals and driving like a maniac) come in very handy when adapting to the DR.
