A misplaced arrogance that you can handle any crisis, just because you're good at building dikes.
Translates to "Hollandse nuchterheid."

Get the Dutch common sensemug. My second common was a total bitch. She drove me into bankruptcy dragging me into family court over and over again before disappearing with my kid.

Get the Saucy Common-kissing Footlickermug. High rise apartment complex off Homer Watson Blvd in Kitchener, Ontario.
The parking is a disaster, if you ever want to have friends over and god-forbid they brought a vehicle and didn't uber... they'll be waiting for an hour during the hours of 6pm to 5am just to park their car since there is only 40 spots for guests in a complex with over 1000 residents. Oh but wait, underground parking for residents is always full too... so you also gotta fight with residents who can't park underground just for a spot in the guest parking. Good luck... I recommend bringing some reading material.
The AC does't turn on until the middle-end of June because they hope someone has to be sent in an ambulance for heat stroke.
If you're a international student you may like it since 95% of the residents are not Canadian citizens.
They do not tell you when you get a roommate. You might have a empty room in the unit for like a week and out of the blue you come home and there is some person sitting on the couch that you do not know using your kitchen towels to clean their feet.
All in all, avoid this place. The positive reviews on facebook and google are either from people who work there or international students who don't expect anything.
The majority of residents are pretty inconsiderate too, if you got your hands full of groceries don't expect anyone to hold a door open for you. The only nice people in this whole dump are the janitors.

Get the collegeview commonsmug. Something your boring roommate says to you when he doesn’t want to hear your bangers at 11:00 am on the day of the only darty that he will ever have the pleasure to enjoy.
“There’s a thing called common decency, and I don’t want to hear your music at 11:00 in the morning because I’m lame. Hee hee.”

Get the Common decencymug. When you’re a super smart person that hangs out with too many “regular” people and therefore lose your intelligence
“Riya, why did you get a 95 on that history test? Maybe if you didn’t go out to dinner with your commoner friends you could’ve gotten 100.”
^ meanwhile the “commoners” are just other people the same age as you
This is the commoner effect

Get the The Commoner Effectmug. A necessity to human survival. The only thing preventing us from dying, excluding radiation, gravity, air, food, and water.
7% of EARTH’s population has and uses this.
