    Unfortunately, one I can't use.

    Nice responses guys!

    I usually take the question and try to answer it, which is either (for them) or takes WAY to much time. I need to use more quipy answers, while leaving the door open for those what actually WANT to talk about kilts/Scotland.

    Short answers:

    "Because no one's told me I can't and made it stick."

    "Because it's so very, very comfortable."

    "Chicks dig it."

    "They may take our lives, but they'll nay make us wear trews."

    "It's an easier midlife crisis than chasing after young blondes and old whiskey."

    "With legs like these, wouldn't you?"

    "I'm Scots, Scots-Irish and a touch Welsh by heritage, and I'm as proud of where I come from as where I am."

    and only very very rarely

    "The voices in my head tell me to."

    I usually just say, "Because I want to."

    If the tone of the question is snotty, the response may change.
