Kilt Do's and Don'ts

[Arlen]

Yes, I think you are definitely the only one.

Everyone else is looking elsewhere. But you did give us all an excuse to examine the "shirt" very closely.

Yeah... Hooters girls aren't really my type. At least now I know an interesting story behind the shirts.
Though I really do want to get my Dad over to the states and take him to a hooters. He's such an old style gentleman it'd probably give him an apoplexy.

What - there aren't any Hooters type places in Scotland?

I'm kinda searching for pictures. Was this on Bauer sucht Frau? Or another version of the show?

Here's more info on the show, for anyone else desperately looking for hideous barn dance photos http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farmer_Wants_a_Wife

p.s. Herminator, I love NRW; I'd love to get back to there.

Yes, Bauer sucht Frau!

My collegues asked me what I thought of him...
Well, I´m always glad to see men wearing KILTS!

But is this really a kilt ...
I guess not, he said he wanted to discover his feminine side...

Not really, no.
There are lapdancing clubs but to give them the term 'seedy' is to insult seedy places.

No T*tty bars or anything, here.
Nothing like hooters where you can get food served by girls in skimpy clothes.

(You see enough of those drunkenly falling around in Glasgow on any street corner, though.)

Aw, man, that's tough. You're missing out.

[Nick the DSM]

yes, come o'er here and have a good time!

Off topic, but really. I might be posting among the wrong group of people, but I personally find Hooters and the like to be pretty tasteless. Just one more thing that encourages the objectification of women, you know? Like we need more of that (we don't).

Not to try to make any of y'all feel bad, I know you guys are just having a good time, and none of you look down on women really. But, I mean, look at Hooters. Look at it. I shouldn't need to explain how it encourages said objectification. And giving them business just encourages them. Again, I'm not trying to attack any of you, sorry if it looks that way.

Anyway yeah sorry about the

I agree with you, man. I've only been to Hooter's once, and it was for a friend's bachelor party.

Back on topic:

DO: Go fishing in a kilt even if you are royalty.






DON'T:

Randomly stumble across a picture of a fellow X-Marker misused dreadfully on a Stranger's Blog. (Yes, it's you Mr. Andrew Breecher.)
(Please, don't bombard the poor person with mean comments. Each to their own, after all.)

I don't understand the dates of Edward as Prince of Wales in the photo.

He did not cease to be Prince of Wales in 1891 but remained so until his accession on 22nd January 1901 when Queen Victoria died.
