Dutch

Translation

"GROEIENDE TULPENBOLLEN LULLEN WEER AAN!"

"GROWING TULIP BULBS ARE RAMBLING AGAIN!"

"IN MEI LEGGEN ALLE PROGRAMMEURS EEN DISK

"IN MAY ALL PROGRAMMERS LAY A DISC

Rather profane Dutch text that may or may not be cut off. These phrases are untranslated even on the English disk. The Dutch word 'lullen' can literally be translated to 'dicks', but here it is used as an informal way of saying 'talking nonsense'. The second phrase comes from the Dutch proverb 'in Mei leggen alle vogels een ei', which translates to 'in May, all birds lay eggs'.
