I know a few people down south and this couldnt be closer to the truth. :)
50F degrees People in southern England turn on the central heating People in Edinburgh plant out bedding plants
40F degrees Southerners shiver uncontrollably Glaswegians sunbathe on the beach at Largs
35F degrees Cars in the south of England refuse to start People in Falkirk drive with their windows down
20F degrees Southerners wear overcoats, gloves and woolly hats Aberdonian men throw on a T-shirt; girls start wearing mini-skirts
15F degrees Southerners begin to evacuate to the continent People from Dundee swim in the River Tay at Broughty Ferry
Zero degrees Life in the south grinds to a halt Inverness folk have the last BBQ before it gets cold
Minus 10F degrees Life in the south ceases to exist People in Dunfermline throw on a light jacket
Minus 80F degrees Polar bears wonder if it's worth carrying on Boy Scouts in Oban start wearing their long trousers
Minus 100F degrees Santa Claus abandons North Pole People in Stirling put on their 'long johns'
Minus 173F degrees Alcohol freezes Glaswegians get upset because all the pubs are shut
Minus 297F degrees Microbial life starts to disappear The cows in Dumfriesshire complain about farmers with cold hands
Minus 400F degrees All atomic motion stops Shetlanders stamp their feet and blow on their hands
Minus 459F degrees Hell freezes over Scotland wins the World Cup

They are upset all the time - I guess this would just be the final straw.

Ok... so, if it's a Scottish joke, why is it in Farenheit?
And we'll never win the World Cup. Our Football team sucks far too much.

wow i felt the fun being sucked from me reading this.
Yes and any real scot would be frozen to death in those temperatures - and yes Scotland suck at football hence when hell freezes over. lol and here was me thinking i wasn't in the mood for pointing out the obvious.
Seem like the sort of person who would stop someone during a Scottish/English/Irish man joke to ask how they knew each other and to enquire if they were in actual fact 100% scottish/english or Irish.

I guess it would depend on a number of things. The Scots and the Irish are both known to drink a lot, so they probably would have met in a pub. The English can't really handle alcohol, so they probably met him through work. As to whether they are 100% Scots/English/Irish thats a whole new can of worms. In Scotland for example there are 2 possibilities. If they are in Edinburgh then it's more likely that one or more of them is part Kiwi/Aussie/Canadian and are just visiting because their great great granny was born there. In Glasgow it's probably just 2 Scotsman and an Englishman with 1 of the Scots pretending to be Irish. Also lots of people like to relate themselves to Scots just for the coolness factor....
Those kind of jokes are racist anyway, and people should never tell them! |

racist. I sit in work next to no less than 3 irishmen its a running in our office just how culturally diverse we are - were constantly saying things like a scottish english and irish man walk into a lift, as all 3 of us walk out of the office.
And the Irish guys are the worst for those jokes. I get emailed paddy and mick jokes all day.
