Girl, You're Phat with a V?!

Things you should know before you can understand this post:

1) People here are so behind the times. They are still living in the 80s and 90s. And sadly, they just have no clue...

2) In the Dutch alphabet, the letter V sounds like "fay". So if a word has a V in it, it will sound like the American letter F.


Okay, now the post:

So as I mentioned before, Dutch people are stuck in the 80s and 90s. And those decades are prevalent everywhere: the music, the fashion, the lingo... They just don't seem to understand that we are actually living in the 21st century! I guess they are too busy using all their "modern" in their art and furniture tastes to realize it... Anywho!!... It was today that I realized that the word "phat" is still used by many Dutchman! Yes, I did say "phat". ...You know, phat. Meaning cool. As in, "Girl, You're Phat with a P"*. But the funniest part (to me) is that here, it is not even "Phat with a P". It is "phat" with a V.... Vat!

...Oh, those crazy Dutch!
