My dad was born in scotland...

ask him what he wears under his kilt and you'll find out if he's a true scotsman or not!

 

[Malbri]

He was born there, he didnt grow up there...
They moved here before he had even been there a year

Its the exact same thing an Irishman wears under his! Here's something I bet you haven't heard... Did you know the Irish invented the Bagpipes and presented them to the Scots? Yeah, unfortunately for the rest of the world, the Scots haven't gotten the joke quite yet. Luckily for the rest of the world however, the Gods created alcohol, tis the bane of any Celt elsewise we would have already taken over the world, assuming we could stop fighting ourselves first...

There are plenty of Scotch and Irish here in the states. I'm a mixed breed myself....Scotch Irish with a dash of Cherokee and a smidgen of Dutch.

I can't believe no one mentioned Fat ******* from Austin Powers.

It rains a lot. I blame you for inventing golf. The men there wear skirts in eye searing plaid. You have your own language you kid tourists into believing is english. Occasionally bagpipes explode and injure bystanders. You only play bagpipes when tourists are looking. You invented sweaters. Mel Gibson thinks he's one of you. You're bearing up well under that embarrasment... Other than that, I only think of Scotland when I think of sheep.

My mom's dad came to the United States from Scotland when he was 14. He never did forgive his parents for making him and his brothers wear kilts lol. Any country that gives us Sean Connery, has got to be awesome in my book =) Plus, without a Scot, I wouldn't be alive! <3 Scotland
