[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Scotch tape was supposed to be economical because it saved on adhesive. The stereotype of the Scots as stingy is, of course, offensive, but it doesn't seem to be a major issue -- at least my grandmother never mentioned it.[/quote] Are you kidding? I am half Scottish and am proud of the stingy stereotype. It's 100% true in my case, and in my father's family. We are frugal. If you're offended by that, get over yourself. [/quote] I think more problematic than scotch tape indicating a miserly lifestyle is the use of Scotch synonymously with whiskey as if all Scottish people are drunks. It’s sad how it’s okay to label a whole people. [/quote]
