Oi! We resemble that remark!
Hahaha, I wonder why you take such pride in it.
Hello everyone!

I didn't understand ur first sentence, unfortunately. I don't know what language is that.
Thank you for your introduction.
Please accept my apologies. Spanish is a very common language as I'm very close to the spice in South Texas.
"welcome to the forum" and yes the Brits are very entertaining to say the least. Fell in love with one once or twice. My ex speaks with a British accent and is from the South. Isn't this ironic?
Are there no casinos (intuition and statistics) or stock market options (same) to go with this "we have less money" comment? Oxymoron comes to mind. One can read the past and see the future easily.
Would I rather be Judgemental or loving?... I choose a little of both actually as there really isn't a choice while posting on a forum is there? Judgement runs rampet when all you have are your words to show who you are.
It's not what you have, it's what you do with it and if it controls you versus you controlling it.
I do love the Brits. Especially their musical contributions. Visit the musical section and you may see why. :wink: Numbers come into play here, and I'm quite fond of them. Sound is the bonus-combine the two and we have perfect harmony.

Oh, thanks for the Spanish lesson.:bravo:. And ur ex is from the South and speaks with a British accent? I wonder if you mean the south as in the southern states such as Texas and those places because if that's true then...I don't understand why he would speak British. Maybe he just likes the accent. I just came here to America and I've noticed that girls in here like the British accent because "it's cute"...LOL.
When it comes to music though, I'm a fan of Metal and those "crazy" stuff so, I wonder if you guys play some Metal!:rockin::rockin:

The problem is if you drink to much scotch, you will turn to be a Scottish and the music will be........

LOL...what the hell is this? This is definitely not my type of music. English is not my first language but I guess he said something like "peeing on the crowd"?? Honestly, this might show a little ignorance from my side but the only thing I've ever known about Scotland is that men wear skirts there. Skits is it called? Or something like that?

Hmm...the video has sound. It might be a little low to u. If u have a problem with ur laptop, I really can help you. I'm a college student currently majoring in Computer Science. It's possible that I might be able to help u. Although, it's going to take a little time for me to get my degree since as I said because I have military service to do. But, still...u got nothing to lose, do u?

That my friend is the reason why people need to think twice before going to Scotland; I have a theory about it; scotch and haggis...
The song is an old Scottish song, there are many different versions of it, this was the censored version
No offense; I have met Scots and they are nice, dressed weird and their accent is an issue
It is called a kilt, Scarab. The reason they call it a kilt, is becasue no one there can spell s-k-i-r-t.
I know some scotsman is going to kill me for this...:shock:

LOL...you made me have a question speaking of Scotland. Was the story of William Wallace (aka. Braveheart) a true one? Or just Hollywood? My apologies, I don't know what haggis are.
Well honestly, when it comes to this song, the more censored it is, the better it is for everyone! "Peeing on the crowd"? I have never ever heard anything like this before, seriously!
Hmm...I thought Brits and Scots are similar. Same language and same traditions. Just different cultures, I assume? Since I know about the kilts only from Scotland never heard about it in Britain.

Here's the information on the life story of William Wallace Scotland is part of Great Britain(British Isles) or Britain for short hence the name "Brits". The ancient Scots were Celts and spoke a different language than English (Scottish Gaelic).

I think both Scotland and Ireland are currently British territory, right? And is the Scottish Gaelic language still alive today? Or is it gone?

Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, Southern Ireland (Republic of Ireland/Eire) is an independent country. I don't believe Gaelic is used nowadays, but I'm pretty sure our porridge loving brethren will be able to correct me.

Oh, we don't wear kilts everyday...
The accent is so that we can talk about you without you understanding it!
That's an invitation that's impossible to ignore... :twisted:
Anyone who drives the English out of Scotland is a hero and legend!
Only half of Ireland is British, the northern half i.e. Northern Ireland. Myself and The Highway Man served there during "The Troubles".
Scottish Gaelic is still alive but it's not really spoken. The Gaelic speakers are all up the western highlands of Scotland.
Haggis is a traditional Scottish food. Here's some more info:

Today, "Brits" are English, Welsh, Irish and Scottish. We all have the same national language (English), but we all have our own languages (not all of us speak a different language - I'm Scottish but don't speak a word of Gaelic). Our cultures and traditions are slightly different.

There's about 58,000 native Gaelic speakers in Scotland. (About 1% of the population).
We have our own Gaelic (part time) TV channel also.

Hmm, do these guys fight for independence or something? Or they just like British rule? A whole lot of places have something to do with Britian. You guys had a whole lot of territory back in the day.Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, Southern Ireland (Republic of Ireland/Eire) is an independent country. I don't believe Gaelic is used nowadays, but I'm pretty sure our porridge loving brethren will be able to correct me.

Does the Northern part of Ireland ever fight for independence? Or they like ur rule? When it comes to the language thing it's kinda the same situation we're in. None of our native languages are still being spoken. Only 1 is a little bit alive and it's only spoken in church by some -not all- priests. It's a little depressing to see your culture or your native language dying.

A horrible horrible time. I was there during the late 80's/early 90's.

Thankfully the fighting has ended! The north is now part of the UK which is what the majority of the north wanted.
What's your native language(s)?
