    The Best Western European Culture

    I too am a great admirer of the Dutch. No country produced their level of art. Their 19th century philosophical contributions are greatly underrated. The Portuguese broke barriers of exploration, but the Dutch juiced the fruits of that exploration more than any other nation...until the...

    The Best Western European Culture

    It's interesting to me how three vocal respondents claim one solid ethnicity. As your average white American, my heritage can be summarized with a map of Europe.

    No, I picked this name up from English literature. The book Ivanhoe. I wish I hadn't- it's given the Spanish speakers on here some confusion as well. I'm trying to impress a Brazilian au pair who lives a couple hours from me. So, yes, I'm trying to learn some Portuguese.

    No, I mean the opposite. But I'll claim to be offended at all times if it keeps people off my block. It's like being that drunk guy who yells at people from the street corner at 2AM.
