Are Kilts Only for Men with Scottish Heritage?

The one with the pet spider...

That was de Bruise, not the Bruce. He's told you a lie about your ancestry.

He didn't actually tell me anything, since he was dead several centuries before I was born. Secondly, no one in my family speaks French.
What I find ironic and disgusting is that due to the incident, I am forbidden by family honour to harm a spider, and I'm the world's foremost arachnophobe. Bugs of any kind scare the **** out of me, and the more legs it has the less I like it.

 

[Borek]

the more legs it has the less I like it.

Does it mean you love earthworms?

 

[Chi Meson]

What happened to kilts?

 

[CFDFEAGURU]

This thread is well past the 10 post rule. Anything after 10 posts has nothing to do with the original question.

They're okay if dipped in salsa.

You—CFD... whatever... Upon which syllable of your name does the emphasis fall? Does your name even have syllables?

 

[CFDFEAGURU]

Mainly on the F the E and the A.

 

[Danger]

Mainly on the F the E and the A.

First or second 'F'?

 

[CFDFEAGURU]

The second one.

 

[Danger]

The second one.

Ahhh... thank you for the clarification. It's so much easier to pronounce that way.

So, Sif-duh-FEEYAH-guru.

 

[DaveC426913]

Oh come on, Dave. You don't seriously think I'm making this up out of ignorance, do you?

No. I'm saying you are speaking for your fellow countrymen when you say they wouldn't know the difference. Not sure they'd be happy with your assessment of their ignorance.

There's a saying, not sure where I've heard it from, but it says: 'only a MAN can fill his clothes'

... I can only imagine what it means...


Jokes aside, I believe it only indicates to one's confidence.

I think it originated with B-17 crews, explaining why they bloused their pants when flying bombing missions (they didn't want the floors of the plane getting too slippery).

There is no difference. A kilt is a type of skirt. Or did you not take the time to read the definitions I referenced for you?

Clearly we are destined to disagree on this one, so I'm done with it. Taking a moment to change the subject (and with apologies to the OP, for doing so)...what's up with your boat? How are the repairs going?

And just in time! Can't really argue with references can I?

Repairs are goin' great! My fibreglassing skills are awesome! Check this out:

Only the manliest of men would ever ware a kilt. I on the other hand don't think I can because it's just not the social norm...(damn I hate the social norm)

I'd probably ware one in the comfort of my own home

If not for the fact I trust you, I would say it is a completely different boat.

Sadly the image is too large and breaks forum formatting. I understand the boat is large, but it should be really possible to resize the picture.

 

[BobG]

Of course it's the same boat. How many boats have wheels?

Personally, I'd rather wear a toga than a kilt.

But it has 4 wheels in the first picture, and only 3 in the second.
Anyhow, he's wearing a split kilt in that photo. Some men didn't like the wind ringing their chimes, so they ran a stitch up the centre as a baffle.

Either way, don't walk over a subway vent.

Either way, don't walk over a subway vent.

And if you do, change your name to Marilyn.

It's six feet longer.

I assume that you are referring to either your nose or your long-distance plan. If your tongue is the subject matter, I don't want to witness the rest of the conversation.
And yes, I structured this to fall within forum guidelines.
