Reader Tips

The Scots take Scottish pride very, very seriously – their national flower is the thistle – especially when they’re all worked up and getting ready for battle against the English. Tonight, thousands of Scotsmen, who may or may not be half-cut, roar out a hearty, vehement rendition of verses 1 and 3 of Flower of Scotland.
Watch out for that Glasgow kiss in the scrums.

  1. China has banned the construction of government offices for the next five years, ratcheting up an austerity campaign that has already taken a toll on the economy…”

  2. Naw, it’s not that the Democrats are lawless, it’s just that they have given themselves final authority to do whatever is required to help keep themselves in power:
    Sen. Ted Cruz said Thursday that Attorney General Eric Holder is continuing a ‘longstanding pattern of refusing to follow the law’ with his decision to disregard the U.S. Supreme Court and force Texas to seek federal approval for changes to voting laws.
    “The Texas Republican’s comment came in a stern statement in which he also accused Holder of politicizing the Justice Department.
    “‘Holder’s refusal to accept the judgment of the U.S. Supreme Court regarding preclearance continues the department’s longstanding pattern of refusing to follow the law,’ Cruz said.”

  3. Having partly grown in in Nova Scotia, I have had it with “Scottish pride”. As if most of you “Scots” have ever even visited Scotland. And as if the English don’t have a culture. Bite me, porridge wogs.
    Look, the whole stupid island is doomed anyway, as we all know. We had a good run, it’s over.
    BTW, you lost. Get over it. Forget our differences. We need to focus on the Zombie Apocalypse now.

  4. Public attitudes about race relations have plummeted since the historic election of President Barack Obama, according to a new poll from NBC News and the Wall Street Journal.
    Only 52 percent of whites and 38 percent of blacks have a favorable opinion of race relations in the country, according to the poll, which has tracked race relations since 1994 and was conducted in mid-July by Hart Research Associations and Public Opinion Strategies.
    That’s a sharp drop from the beginning of Obama’s first term, when 79 percent of whites and 63 percent of blacks held a favorable view of American race relations.

  5. Thank you Kate, it’s a kick ass song. I hired a piper to play it at my mother’s funeral because she loved it so. There is nothing so sweet to a Scottish heart than a well aged grudge.

  6. Zombie Apocalypse ??? WTF
    has all the zombie foolishness in the media convinced you they are real?

  7. Oh sure. Lie to yourself. Live in your cosy little fantasy world. That’ll help. It’ll be real nifty. Until they start coming…

  8. Least of my problems. You ever tried applying this weaponized paint sh*t to the external and internal walls of your bunker? This bunker is no joke, cupcake. IT’S SOLID CONCRETE! Seriously, have you tried painting concrete? No. You haven’t, you communist. It’s basically a nightmare. Full of little holes. Frankly, I’m worried about how my family (i.e. cats) will cope with the upcoming zombie apocalypse. I mean, are the walls poison? Probably. Salon Magazine said that the government said that the anti-radioactive paint was cool, but I just don’t trust them. You probably would. Which is why they’ll EAT YOU FIRST!
    Jerk.
    AND I’m supposed to be worrying about my meds!!??!? Genius, MY MEDS ARE FULL OF ADULTERATES, OKAY!!?? Jeeze. So obviously I’m not taking them anymore. As much as you guyswish I were. They were making my hallucinations much worse. So I outsmarted you, didn’t I?
    Idiot.

  9. Not if the zombies get them first.
    They eat you, you know. That’s the first step….

  11. There are multi-millions of zombies out there. They vote for people like the Zero. Actually,a zombie probably has better reasoning power then a Zero voter.

  12. That just means they are giving upon print …. same shit different stream.
    Oh … BTW … howbout Michael Moore for mayor of NYC?

  13. Beware! Liberals go there!

    “Property records reviewed by RCMP show Harb sold most of his share in the property in October 2007 to Magdalene Teo, who was at the time the Bruneian high commissioner.
    But it wasn’t that simple.
    On Oct. 12, Harb got a mortgage on the property for $177,000. That same day he transferred 99.99% ownership to Teo, who paid him $567,000, RCMP said.”

  15. I’m certain the Zombie Apocolypse was the main driver behind the 2nd Amendment; hence, the “double tap”.
    Everyone knows that!

  16. “Poll: New Yorkers Don’t Want Weiner to Pull Out”
    Obviously that’s because they like getting screwed.
