Which British country is coolest?
 

"Northern Ireland, boyos!" http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/lol.gif http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/neeschud.gif :homer:

There goes any shred of credibility you might have had on this subject.

Northern Ireland isn't British.

Is that what Cort was laughing at? Or the "boyos" thing?

It's part of the UK, I call it British. IDK if they say "boyos" there, it just sounded more Irish than anything else I could think of just then. Maybe "Northern Ireland, the rest are bollicks" or some such? "Pass the poteen for Northern Ireland?" "I'm an Ulster-booster?"

Scotland I voted


Is Encyclopedia Britannica english, or a collective effort of all the UK?

edit: sorry, missed the above

Northern Ireland, a self-confident, forward looking society (with fine linens, great whiskey, and migrant Poles to keep the shipbuilding industy on life support)


Also, the De Lorean was built in Northern Ireland, so they were indispensible in the invention of time travel. http://www.discussworldissues.com/im...ons/icon14.gif

Kilts may seem girly, but I'd rather have a kilt than be one of those "chav" vermin England has. Chavs know no boundaries. They're known as Neds in Scotland. Try typing it into YouTube.

It is obviously Canada http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/tongue.gif

ENGLAND is pretty so-so. On the one hand, they're polite and have an interesting sense of humor. On the other, their idea of food leaves something to be desired; I understand they eat plainly disgusting animal parts like kidneys (mmm, urine factories), and they overcook them to boot. They get some bonus points for roast beef and yorkshire pudding, and for spawning some awesome bands back in the day. Points are deducted for bad teeth, ludicrous anachronistic traditions and a love of stupid-sounding words like "picadilly" and "crumpet." Accent-wise, they come out neutral, since for every elegant, refined voice they have two squawking cockney types, and those are usually the ones on the BBC. I see you will be travelling to London by tardis, arriving at some point in the distant past http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/tongue.gif

"Llanmaf byrwd cymrullcwyc" Is that an anagram? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo.../eageranim.gif

scotland, for four reasons

1) Whisky
2) The Highlander movie (the original)
3) Anyone with the balls to eat haggis is pretty cool
4) Positive social policies (Cross dressing). What do scotsmen wear under their kilts anyway
