ParisInAKilt Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 That's not normal. Go see your doctor. And pay money? I'll take my chances with my home made tartan bandage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parklife Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Bet you argue with your reflection in the mirror ? Still not gave a valid response yet to earlier questions. Typical useless whataboutery. And you've not given a response to my query on what you think patriotism actually means. So i'll give you the same courtesy as you've given me. There's no whataboutery from me. Do you know what that word means? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock strap Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 You were billy big baws ( as per usual ) at the start so commence with valid answers to my questions. I really doubt you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock strap Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 Patriotic. Normally, if someone is proud of their country, you say that they or their feelings are patriotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock strap Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 Have you pair got no work to do? Nah. Too busy painting the Saltire over the front of my house whilst wearing my kilt, Scotland WC 86 top and a glengarry with a large feather on.

sbcmfc Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 I can see Parklifes angle, but then I don't know why jock strap lives in England. I think there's an argument that moving away makes you feel more patriotic. The number of English (or further) based folk that follow Scotland would maybe back that up?

I think there's an argument that moving away makes you feel more patriotic. The number of English (or further) based folk that follow Scotland would maybe back that up? I get your point but I have always had a deep love for Scotland. Been following the country since I was a wean with my Dad and have continued since he stopped. I think the initial response from Parklife was to mix it up. Quite sad when a supposed fellow countryman tries to belittle your passion for our country. Either way, I'll still feel the same about our country, irrespective of other points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parklife Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Patriotic. Normally, if someone is proud of their country, you say that they or their feelings are patriotic. Cool. I'd say that patriotism would manifest itself in contributing to society and by trying to make the country a better place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock strap Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 Acting like something your clearly not and being called it are different. Just to clear this up.

Return of Yermaw Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Acting like something your clearly not and being called it are different. Just to clear this up. I am not / can't be patriotic as I don't currently live in Scotland. So that goes for every ex-pat who is dotted around the world. What he said was that he finds it funny that those who choose not to live in Scotland (and whatever your circumstances - unless you're in the big hoose somewhere but even then you can seek a transfer - it is a choice) always seem to be the ones who portray themselves as being extremely patriotic. Personally I don't believe there is anything to be patriotic about in any country. We all have good points and we all have bad points - nothing to be proud about........
