Just imagine the international perception of the USA if we elect the founder of Godfather pizza to the presidency.

Yeah nothing says America than Bagpipes and jailbait girls line dancing to country music.

@1 - Or worse: a second-rate actor.

Rebelling against Britain really was a bad idea in retrospect.

I'll bet they'd be real surprised to know what I think of them, too.

@2, I've seen a couple of red-neck weddings that had "Scotch" themes to them. Apparently if you think some distant relative was a Scott or if you have Mc in your name that entitles you to claim a heritage that your family has been removed from for 4 generations, or in the case of one family 6 generations.

@4: If this video is any evidence, that's true for both America and South Africa.

Agee @9 - more belly rolls, please.

Must say I love the pipes with anything (my grandfather came over from Scotland at age 19) so I cut this a bit of slack. Squeeze that sack of pigs!

Afrikaans Sokkie on Slog! Nonsense lyrics set to kiddie-pop music - check. Creeps me out, but a popular style way way way down south.

Ive seen way worse on Italian TV. Its not like Scotland is cool? Just change them singing to FISH AND CHIPS AND LAGER and you got them. They do know that the Irish gave them the bag pipes as a joke dont they?
