I think they're just mad that everyone gets them confused with the Irish.

Wore my (rented) trusty kilt on a number of occasions now, weddings and prom night to be precise. Haven't dared to go true Scotsman yet as there is always someone who comes up behind you and lifts it for the world to see, those who wear nothing underneath normally flash themselves before the night's out anyway :S
And Psychotic please, we dont hate the English. Just your football team, condolences by the way :P
I have never been near to a guy in a skirt- or kilt.
Nor have I heard someone talking in a Scottish accent.
(I'm just too far away.)
So I can't make a decision whether I would like to kill a Scot, since I have to see a kilt and hear a Scottish accent before anything else. :3
Happy Birthday to Me
Well who wouldn't be mad if they got confused with the Irish? (except the Irish themselves) Scotland itself is a cool place to visit.Originally Posted by Yamaneko
LET THE HAMMER FALL
hello N.Irish here, and were offended to be called Scots, however we all know were the most intelligent nation in the UK so, the jokes on the rest of you. and at least Scotland sorta gets our history, and is able to distinguish that Ireland is divided unlike most english ppl.
"Im from Belfast"
"OMG!!! Youre Irish"
"Well..no..im N.Irish/British"
"so youre Irish"
"......"
ive had that conversation many a time and simply have to give up trying.
i do not lie- on those Test the Nation things, Ni came out on top
oh and a tip for you English, Scottish haters. this is also the gospel truth, its a legal loophole.
In York it is still legal to shoot a Scotsman with a bow and arrow (but not on Sundays!!!!)
EDIT- and whilst were at it, our rubbish football team managed to beat Englands and they thought they could win the world cup? psh.

Its only starting up, which means its not world class- but hey whats the harm in having a look. (or registering!) The only way its gonna get better is if more people join up.
Its got FF, art, writings, riddles, general chat and GFX battles. And each of these topics we are hoping to develop to its fullest.
Its not a catchy address either (free to run) so just save the link into your favourites for easy access
I think the Irish are the sexiest people in the world.
Or maybe I have been reading too much Nora Roberts / Maeve Binchy novels.
Happy Birthday to Me
Kilts creepy. Bagpipes are creepy. Scottsmen are creepy.
I don't care if they are worn by traditional means. But when people wear them to try to be all hipster like, that kind of pisses me off.
Kilts are okay, but I don't have the legs for 'em. However my girlfriend insists that someday I will be wearing one, so uh, we'll see.
And yeah, I don't agree with the "kilts are just skirts being worn by guys" thing because I don't think that a kilt is a proper kilt unless it's got the sporran, is made of twill woven worsted wool and must have a tartan pattern on it, which should be represent a clan or other such group.
Also, the Irish and Welsh also have kilts, it might be worth noting.
EDIT: Also, I agree with Sephex.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
It's an excuse for manly men to dress like pansies imo

Eh, I'd never wear a kilt, it'd just be too embarrassing.That's social conditioning on this side of the pond for you.
