Jeff passed along an article about prep materials for a new test the Netherlands has for potential immigration to make sure that immigrants will fit into the culture. Included is a film:
The camera focuses on two gay men kissing in a park. Later, a
topless woman emerges from the sea and walks onto a crowded
beach. For would-be immigrants to the Netherlands, this film
is a test of their readiness to participate in the liberal
Dutch culture.
If they can't stomach it, no need to apply.

they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't

if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
