Top Ten Ways for the English to Annoy the Scottish
As an Englishman, I must admit that we enjoy teasing the Great Northern Ginger Bush from time to time. This is one of those times.The Top Ten
1 Say that you have nothing against Scottish Independence, given that "Scotland, you're on Eurown."
This idea is either really, really good, or really, really bad.
2 Ask if they know Nessie.
3 State that Robert Burns is English.
Be adament. Insist that this is the case and watch their face turn as red as their hair haha!
4 Assume that every hollow tube in your wake is a bagpipe.
They would be so annoyed.
5 Say, "Haggis, that's just entrails, right?"
6 Attend any formal event in a kilt.
7 If you hear any music, dance only with your legs.
Just try not to make it look too Irish.
8 Call every woman you see "Angus".
9 Put ginger hair dye in random people's hair products.
10 Paint a tartan pattern on random cars and hang bagpipes from the wingmirrors.
You'd need quite a lot of time on your hands, but just go with it.
The Contenders
11 Constantly say "Och aye the noo."
I love the nature of this one
12 Remind them that Edinburgh used to be part of England
Well, if it was still even slightly English, they would've voted Yes in the referendum.
13 Make fun of their accent
This works with any region in the world.
14 Refer to Scotland as the Great Northern Ginger Bush.
15 Use a sock as a puppet for primary conversation.
16 Tell them that more English people want Scottish Independence that the Scots.
17 Tell them to buy their own drinks
18 Tell them that Berwick-upon-Tweed belonged to England all along
19 Invade Lothian and the Scottish borders
20 Tell them that England is more popular
21 Make Gretna part of England
22 Bring up Culloden in conversation
