I say that this thread is outrageous!
Boycott Frazz! No more Frazzburgers for lunch until he stops his silly haggis boycott. What´s next Frazz boycotting Japanese female bodybuilders?
Texans! It´s about time we fill the entire state with sheep and force them to eat haggis, that´ll teach them.

That actually *is* hacking. Its basic reconnaissance and equivalent to port knocking. SQL injections are just one vector - as much as a steganographic command buried in a .jpg attack Cheap shots work just as well as real work.
As for boycotting - of all the stupid things America's done, Scotland can get a pass.

Can we boycott the constant Scottish pissing and moaning about all things American and how we have boo-hoo victimized them? Or can you not boycott something that is free? Because I could do with less of that in my life.

Don't forget all of those great Scottish inventions that we're fond of. The telephone, some soup (fething traitorous bitches those Campbells they are), some other stuff...that I can't think of, but remember a book being written about it..

Hmm. Let's see! 1. Television (combine this with Tellingbones, and we pretty much invented the Interwebs too) 2. Tarmacadam, hence all modern roads. 3. The Pneumatic Tyre, allowing us to drive fasterer and fasterer 4. The Breachloading Rifle. Say thank you America 5. US Navy (go on, Boycott that, for no more reason that it'll be good for a laugh to see how it's done) 6. Beating up the English. WORLD FIRST! 7. Hurling. Like Hockey, but not as girly. 8. The Mackintosh water proof garment. Hold on, it never rains in Texas....bah. 9. Loads of other cool stuff. Oh, and 'Clan' Tartans aren't a Scottish invention. Once upon a time, you just dyed the cloth with whatever was handy. So usually Beer and Wimmin.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

Obviously they weren't very good at being Scots then, since they ditched their man-dresses and octopus-bag-flute things.

Hmm... I would argue that the "modern" America we see now is pretty different from anything that anyone who was British really had a hand in. I would suggest that, occasionally, here and there over the years, the American people themselves might have had a hand in it somewhere.
An obese hand in all likelihood true enough, but...

I like where this thread has gone. It continues to be made of haggis boycotting win. I am saddened that no one has shown proof of the impressiveness of scottish maidens though. So sad...
