Double Dutch

(See how if my workload goes up, my post load goes down? Now that I finally have some "real work" again, it's going to be even worse, I'm afraid...)

So on Postcrossing, you can turn on or off whether you want to send and receive from your own country. I am very glad for this option, because it means I can turn the Netherlands off. Why, you say? I have my reasons...
Firstly, Dutchies are cheap. I know it is a stereotype, I know "going Dutch" is supposed to be funny, but it's really true. Apart from some sad pieces of paper, the cheapest cards I've received were all from Dutchies, who then wrote blatantly happy messages about their dogs and the weather, obviously avoiding the whole "I hope you like this card!" issue.
Secondly, in Dutch, the word "card" (kaartje) means both a postcard and a greeting card. So about half of the cards you get from the Netherlands are folded greeting cards. In some cases I understand this, I've received some from other countries as well where the sender just had a lot to say, and needed the space. But most Dutchies just write "Happy Postcrossing!" and nothing else. It's these cards I most frequently throw out.
Thirdly, and most importantly, Dutchies are hypocrites. Most of the Dutch part of the forum is dedicated to complaining about your life/work/neighbours or about cards you've received, people that make stupid or unrealistic requests, or people that aren't participating in tags or round robins properly. The whole atmosphere is that of a collective "look me, I'm perfect and great and spending loads of money, and look at all those other people, cheating and trying to get away cheaply" whine. Followed by a topic on where to get free cards. I've tried to be realistic in some of these topics, but then people say "hey, I'm putting in the time and effort and money, why shouldn't they?". Really, it's just a hobby, although I think for many of the complainers, it is more of a day job. So people keep saying that countries like Belarus and Russia and the Ukraine send such horrible cards, but frankly, the worst I've received were all from Dutch people.

This is not to say that all Dutch Postcrossers are horrible, of course. I think most people just send a lot of cheap cards to fellow-Dutchmen so their sent-amount goes up and they are able to send out more cards to different countries. Which is fine. But it also means I don't want to receive cards from the Netherlands anymore. I'd rather wait a bit longer for a special, albeit cheaply printed, card from Belarus than find 3 cheap Boomerang cards in my mail box. It will make me happier, it will make the senders happier, and it will teach me some patience!
