You don't look like stereotypical historians, I must say

Not yet
I already have a ribfluwelen jasje met elleboogstukken, but I've stopped wearing it for the moment on account of the weather. It's really handy, I keep my pens in the inside pocket for easy access.
And you should see the other active members of the UHSK, they're not what you'd expect historians to look like either
A small selection includes:
-A Belgian with a shaved head and a big tattoo all over his right arm from his shoulder (I think) to about 1/3rd of the way along his lower arm;
-An extremely annoying Brabander girl who has suddenly affected thick black eyeshadow, so she looks like a corpse;
-A pissy little bitch (called Chrissy) who could probably slip through a barred fence;
-A tall white guy with a curly afro;
-A shorter white guy with a curly afro;
-A thin, somewhat gangly guy with shoulder-length jet-black hair, a narrow beard down his chin and a complete lack of any semblance of political correctness;
-A tall, chubby, LOUD Brabander with a great love for beer and Italy (seriously, giving him a megaphone on our introduction camp was a BAD idea >_<);
-A thirty-two-year-old Masters student with several other (botched, IIRC) studies under his belt, including ICT;
-A tall guy with long blonde hair and a blonde chinbeard.
The only person I can think of right now in the UHSK who DOES look like a historian is a Brabander who is apparently impervious to sarcasm, always wants to know the reason when you say you prefer/dislike something and who's doing research to see if a noble title given to a medieval ancestor of him is still valid today. As for the rest, it's more like the Utrecht Diversity Parade or something
