Dueling with Slowpokes
So I'm in line at the supermarket. A grubby guy in his 40s stocking up on beer is behind me. I'm in my new Scott Modern Red hand sewn kilt. He speaks.
GG: "What tartan is that?"
Me:"Scott"
GG: " I know its scotch, what tartan is it?"
Me: "Scott"
GG: "I'm probably more scotch than you are, what tartan is it?"
Me: "Clan Scott its a border clan, a proud clan, a very large clan."
GG: "Clan Scotch?"
Me: "No, S-C-O-T-T....scotch is a drink, Scott is a clan."
GG:"Oh..."
Then he starts listing his clans and what their tartans are like...he gets to Muir....I interrupt and say that Muir is a beautiful tartan...he looks at me..."It is?"
I'm gone...
I'm sure he's more scotch than I am...probably more beer too...

The best is his insinuation that he was somehow "better" than you, but then he further reveals his "tard-ness." hahahaha... haha.

Heh heh heh, yeah, I agree with you that he may have had a little too much scotch! 
From the lone Shieling of the misty islands,
Mountains divide us and the waste of seas.
Yet still the blood is strong, the heart is Highland,
And we in dreams behold the Hebrides.

He obviously never saw the original Star Trek :rolleyes:
Especially the episode where Scottie wore a kilt.
Reverend Earl Trefor the Sublunary of Kesslington under Ox, Venerable Lord Trefor the Unhyphenated of Much Bottom, Sir Trefor the Corpulent of Leighton in the Bucket, Viscount Mcclef the Portable of Kirkby Overblow.
