    Buzzfeed atacks kilts

    https://www.buzzfeed.com/hilarywardl...4v2#.rcMKWLNMd
    They give a "list" of it and none of it makes any sense.
    "Everyone knows that kilts are a bit of a joke." No buzzfeed you are the joke.
    "They’re just for stuffy, traditional old men." No they are for all men.

    I will stop there and let you look at the link.

    I took it that she likes men in kilts and was trying to be funny. I don't look like any of those guys.

    Yeah, the bulk of the comments seem to understand that it's sarcastic and trying to be funny, but that it didn't succeed.

    After reading the many contact responses, I've come to the conclusion that sarcasm (in this case of poor taste) is lost on the uninformed of the subject and feelings of others. It takes all types to make a society and I'm glad to belong to a group that is secure in our choice.

    Without the adversity in my world, I would be bored ... sometimes.

    Yawn... Clearly written by a little girl (can't dignify her immaturity by calling her a woman) who thinks she's being somehow pithy and humorous.

    Does your mum know you're using her laptop? Make sure you have a grown-up help you the next time you're writing something that other adults might read.

    With the way those kilts in the pictures are being worn, I am afraid that I cannot help but agree, that the examples given are pretty grim.

    The mistake was reading something from Buzzfeed.
