Did you see the part where we were talking about the Netherlands?

You are, but the original comment specifically said Americans eating out on Thanksgiving. Naturally, they assumed you were talking about overtime laws in the Netherlands in relation to the lack of holiday pay in the American food service industry, but apparently you weren't.

So, I guess the question is, did you see the part where we were talking about the US?

Completely missed it. My mistake.

Americans are struggling with the idea that other countries exist. I'm pretty sure most of them think that the Netherlands is the island from Peter Pan.
