Nationalities

Why exactly are we all arguing over this ?

    All Americans should be described as Colonials whilst all Australians
are called Convicts. Meanwhile all other nations can easily be described as
Johnny Foreigner.

What would the Scots be called?

RD: Scots, or Scottish. What's the point of your question?

If you want to offend a Scotsman call him Scotch. Or Jock.

Scotch is the local alcoholic spirit. Jock is an intimate item of sports
underwear.
