A good kilt story.
Here is a good one for everybody but especially for our scottish rabble.
Tuesday I awoke with the idea of wearing my kilt to school. I chose my Campbell Ancient and my blue jumper. My first class was US history thru 1865 and as the professor was handing back our test grades (made a 92 by the way) he came up to me and said to remind him and he would tell me a good kilt story.
He told us that his dad served in Scotland for a while during WWII. His buddy and him were walking down a steet in Glasgow and in the distance seen a solider in his dress kit walking towards them. His buddy walked up to him and asked "What kind of a man wears a dress?" The scottsman replied that he was "man enough to whip your *** laddie." The teacher said that his dad's buddy did not stay around to long after that.   
I hope you enjoyed this as much as we did.
Slainte,
Rev.

And the lesson is, if you're not going to like the answer, don't ask the question. Good story!

The more important lesson is probably, "Don't be a smart@$$ insulting somebody just for the kicks."

I love how, at a time when everyone feels that they can say whatever they want with absolutely no consequences, some people come through with a straightforward answer.
Clearly not the response the young man was looking for.
