Scotland vs England "The Egg Game" ..


Recommended Posts

There was a Scot and an Englishman who lived next door to each other. The Scot owned a hen and each morning would look in his garden and pick up one of his hen's eggs for breakfast.

One day he looked into his garden and saw that the hen had laid an egg in the Englishmen's garden. He was about to go next-door when he saw the Englishman pick up the egg.

The Scotsman ran to the Englishman and told him that the egg belonged to him because he owned the hen. The Englishman disagreed because the egg was laid on his property.

They argued for a while until finally the Scotsman said "In my family we normally solve disputes by the following actions: I kick you in the balls and time how long it takes you to get back up, then you kick me in the balls and time how long it takes for me to get up. Whoever gets up quicker wins the egg".

The Englishman agreed to this and so the Scotsman found his heaviest pair of boots and put them on. He took a few steps back and running towards the Englishman kicked him as hard as he could in the balls.

The Englishman fell to the floor, clutching his nuts and howling in agony for 30 minutes. Eventually the Englishman stood up and said, "Now it's my turn to kick you"

The Scotsman said, "You can keep the egg".

    • Stop asking people that. It's a "No True Scotsman" argument in that you are attempting to discredit the opinions of a person by Attacking the Messenger. The reason that these are logical fallacies is the TRUTH is based on facts as supported by evidence. Nothing else. So, always debate the facts with evidence to reach the truth. Once you learn to do this, you'll be able to recognize when people are fearmongering and lying to you for their own selfish ends.
