Dutch humour?

Q. Why do Dutchmen wear red suspenders?
A. So they can use them to strangle helpless, enslaved Frisian Islanders.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Who was the Dutch lady I saw you with last night?
A. That was no lady. That was a dike.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He: I just ate some Dutch cheese.
She: Was it Gouda?
He: Jesus, no. It was awful God knows what was in it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He: There were several Dutch cheeses on that plate.
She: Edam?
He: Are you kidding? If I did, I gouda died.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. What did the Dutch tulip farmer do when the traveling Frisian asked to stay overnight at his windmill?
A. He made him sleep with his Dutch elm disease-ridden daughter, then baked him alive in his delft-tile kiln.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Why did Hitler firebomb Rotterdam, Gomorrah of the North?
A. Because he liked his burghers well done.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Why did the chicken cross the road?
A. Because land-hungry Dutchmen had turned
its precious marshy habitat into barren tulip fields.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. What's white on the outside and black and blue all over?
A. A defenseless Flemish nun who was tied to a windmill arm,
then whipped by a vicious Dutchman with a cat-of-nine-tulips.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He: Who is the smartest Dutchman?
She: Senator Joseph Lieberman.
He: But he's Jewish.
She: He fooled you too, didn't he?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Why don't they have baptisms in the Dutch Reformed Church?
A. Because they drained all the fonts and planted them with tulips.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Knock, knock."
"Who's there?"
"Amsterdam. "
"Amsterdam who?
"Answer the damn door, you slimy cheesegobbling zee-drainer! Either you come out and take your medicine or I'll bust it down and come in there and beat you into a pulp like any right-thinking American should."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. How many Dutchmen does it take to torture a hapless Frisian?
A. One to stoke the kiln and six to turn the spit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. What has eighteen legs, eats cheese, smells bad, and has a florid complexion?
A. A Dutch baseball team playing with the head of a decapitated Belgian.

I know it is from this site: http://www.nationallampoon.com/dutch/dindex.html, the entry is still in my search engine (way ahead of you pal). The one above is abacadabra to me, I don't get it. On the site they've got a few of the facts just plain wrong. The architect (Ludwig) Mies van der Rohe was German and Mies is not his first name. Mies is something we would call a cat.

But I like the concept and the effort.
