Though if they can preserve the gene that once made the respectably hung Ewan McGregor get his ting-tong out in every other movie, I would be grateful.
Heh!
OK, just the kilt gene. There has to be one. Switch it for something more decorative, like bioluminescence. -
But ye cannae extinguish the whisky gene - or there'd be no section 92 mischief making.

Craig, what is your gravatar? It look like a Christmas Cthulhu

Wily Joe, wash your mouth out with soapy water (or whatever the relevant technological equivalent...).
Would you have the thrasos to say the same thing with other minorities replacing the "Scottish" part of your post? See how it works with 'black' or 'gay' or whatever.

Minorities such as sanctimonious scolds? Betcha there's a gene for that too.

Unlikely. More to do with environment. Probably attributable to Scottish environment during developmental stages.
And I still don't care much for your tone.

I'm shaking in my boots.
Until you raised the nature or nurture issue I'd have put that down to genetic predetermination. I do happen to have a Scottish surname, which I acquired in the regular genetic fashion. -
Does that make you the Caledonian equivalent of a self-hating jew ?

You bethcha! I'm a little short of work safe and/or un-creepy pictures at the moment, and Hello Cthulu! is about as good as it gets. Seriously, the second choice was Nipples The Bear from web-comic Diesel Sweeties. (Link safe for work but, if you have a reputation to preserve, you should wait until everyone has gone to lunch.)
And remember, folks: "Have a wonderful time worshipping your false idols, you insipid fools!"

Stewart:
If it's any comfort, I'm more likely to mock you for being a Westie than exhibit virulent Caledoniphobia. Though if you front up in a man-skirt and a grubby Metallica t-shirt all bets are off.

Gael galled: glee ganged agley.

You also displayed an admirable sense of duty in taking over the bar.
The people that volunteer to take over the bar are always the worse choice.
My friend Baxter (who many people who passed through Otago University will recognise or know of) once volunteered to take over the bar at the Capping Show. By the end of the night they were down most of a pallet of beer, and the Selwyn ballet were mightily pissed. I don't believe any alcohol was actually sold.

Well that's not going to work. He did Robots, followed by Valiant. Though maybe Robots, with its bits and pieces fix the robots theme, they could have slipped it in, in a way that kids wouldn't notice.

Whatever rocks your bonny boat, my McNigger.

Craig, it seems I can't stop some form of geographical prejudice creeping in, but I promise you that I never wear a man-skirt with a Metallica t-shirt. (A man's got to have some sense of style, nesspa?)
Haven't donned the kilt since I was a wee fella and I don't even own a Metallica t-shirt. Just because I live in the west of West Auckland doesn't mean I have to adopt the entirety of the bogan lifestyle. Besides, a sarong and a Harley Davidson singlet is more my style ;-)
-
Joe,
that really gave me a good laugh - except maybe for the possessive 'my'.
Good on ya!

Irony, laddie. BTW, I notice that March 17 is impending. As always, I'll try to include in my prayers a wish that a cure may be found for the Irishness.

You really want to start me up on bullshit "Oirishness", and the bog scum who should be dangling by their necks from my family tree? No you don't.
Since you asked nicely...
Cthulu Christmas tree ornaments? December 25th isn't hellish enough without a plush Elder God glaring at you as you try to choke back the rage at another sodding pair of socks?

OMG they do the FSM as well!

At the harvest fair she'll be surely there
And I dress in me Sunday clothes
And I said, said I
To a passerby
Who's the maid with the nut-brown nose?
You're right, Craig. I've had me fun. Let's not go there. -

Go on -- I'm sure we could cook up an even dozen things to do with a copy of Angela's Ashes that doesn't involve reading the bloody thing! Really: Give me a memoir by an Irishman with a sober father and a mother who isn't mentally unstable and banging out bubbies like an industrial sausage machine; who had a happy middle class childhood; and wasn't arse-raped by a pederastic cleric when the nuns weren't getting their BDSM jollies on his malnourished flesh.

That's an alarmingly accurate if caustic assessment o the canon, to be sure.
-
Not just the canon - the whole damned clergy! ;-)
-
LOL

I remember a line from A Week Of It:
"Next up on sports, we have small bore canon shooting with Bob Lowe as the canon and John Kirk as the small bore"
