The Dutch have a holiday on the 5th of November (or december.. Forgot which) that’s called “SinterKlaas.”
Sinterklaas is a man who came from spain on the first of november to bring gifts. He traveled the Netherlands until the 5th of november, and then went back to spain. He has helpers called “Zwarte Pieten” litteraly “Black Petes” who are comparable to Santa’s elves. The black petes however follow sinterklaas around the netherlands to help him and to throw “Pepernoten” at the crowds of children. Pepernoten are small biscuits or cookies that taste similar to “Speculaas” which are in turn similar to Gingerbread. Sinterklaas also has a horse called “Amerigo” and carries a staff similar to that of a bishop.
I don’t know why I’m telling you all this, but I suppose it is cool to know albeit a bit late for christmas.
by the way: Webcorrupter – the channel is Fox news not faux news. Faux pronounced like “foe” is a french word meaning fake. The fur coats hotforwords mentioned are faux fur – fake fur.
I wonder where [faux] comes from other than french…

Bram stoker was a gadje, not a vampire. He embarassed the vampire community by writing that book, and turned many humans against them. In ancient times, vampires and humans coexisted peacefully. A vampire would mark a human or humans as “theirs” and that human or those humans, would supply the vampire with blood, and in turn be protected from any other vampires who may wish to hurt the human. I forgot the term for a human so marked…
Now, that rarely happens, because of bram stoker. Now, vampires have to kidnap people at the risk of being caught, or feed on animal blood.Reference: Book: Vampire High By: Douglas Rees
By the way, where does the word “gadje” come from?
Gadje is a word used to describe someone who is not part of a specific group.
Syn: outsider?Gadje is used as a demeaning term for non gypsies (aka. Roma).
Gadje is also used (in this case) to mean a non vampire.
Am I wrong?
