Regularly here we read of the favorable comments oft receive by fellows togged in tartan. But from time to time there are tales of woe telling of times when men in plaid are taunted and scorned by those inclined to skirt the issue.
ENOUGH!!
Let's take a page from the handbook for the slighted and find a devastating way to air our pique. Let's arm ourselves with a shocking and awing epithet to hurl like atomic hand grenades at any who dare disdained us. I offer for your consideration Scotiaphobia, an irrational fear of things Scottish -- but especially kilts. (Okay, maybe haggis too.) Henceforth when met by aspersions cast in breath or text by cads clad in jeans, bib overalls or clown pants with great fervor cry out SCOTIAPHOBIA!!!
Let Scotiaphobics cringe at our hue. Steeled by a phobia of our own we few, the killed few can conquer all.
I am with you Benning !!!!! Give them the verbal bayonet !
I want to put that on a t-shirt. That's brilliant!! "Yes, I have Megaliomadamethymenosgynaikonaphobia. MMMMGIP is an underserved population in the medical profession. It affects about 30-40% of kilt wearers."
