I always understood it was because it was served in smaller measures than standard. Either that or they had a well-developed sense of irony in 18th century Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can something be wee and heavy at the same time? This surely defies the laws of physics. Next someone will be saying a tonne of feathers and a tonne of steel weigh the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have clearly never been to Northern Ireland where it would, for instance, be considered perfectly normal to ask for a wee Big Mac. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I used to go out with a girl from Northern Ireland. Went over for a romantic weekend. Plane landed Friday afternoon and her dog died about 2 hours later. So, instead of spending my Friday night going tatters deep, I spent it helping her did dig a grave for a beloved family pet. All my plans out the window. I shovelled the dirt onto the dog corpse with some venom. The ultimate in cock-blocking. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Went to The Emirates with my youngest, her pal from Primary and her Arsenal-supporting auld man yesterday evening. Great game for the neutral but a cruel way for Arsenal to go out. A couple of rows in front of us sat a family - maw, paw and two weans - in the green and grey hoops with the young ones being FKWs. Driving back to leafy South Bucks, the Gooner dad and I agreed it was odd behaviour whilst the lassies thought it was ok to wear your team's colours at any game you like. So, my QQ is: If you went to a UWCL match in London would you wear your team's replica jersey or would you just be normal? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
