The portrayal of Luxemburgers in the popular media

Is anyone else tired of the way Luxemburgers are portrayed in the movies? They're always shown as being diligent, conscientious, trustworthy, intelligent, and loyal. Also, their personal hygiene is above average. Being part Luxemburger (on my mother's side), I resent the depiction of Luxemburgers in the popular media as a "model minority." When will Hollywood learn that it can't make gross generalizations about ethnic groups? These kinds of stereotypes must stop! If they want to pick on someone, why don't they pick on the lazy, dishonest Belgians for a change?

I find the media coverage of Belgians lacks focus.

First they are portrayed one way, then the other.

The time has come for the media to stop waffling on Belgians.

Uhoh....this place has become besieged with breeding twin threads.


Mind you, some of the pups are very funny.
