Come on tickle
For fuck's sake it's impossible to be racist towards Scots. It's like being racist towards Texans.

It's the wog bit that's racist.
Why is everyone suddenly acting as though wog isn't a really quite racist word or using it beside another word or about white people makes it unracist?
The anti-scottish bit is xenophobic rather than racist.
I'm not getting het up from a wronged scot perspective. :D For one thing i'm also a bit english too and slightly irish so i don't feel very affected by anti-scottishness/irishness/englishness. It makes some jokes odd to hear. :D

I'm going to concede the point
but linking words often does change the meaning of the individual words, which I think is the point I was trying to make. A popular homophobic phrase around here is 'arse bandit', horrible when put together but calling someone simply an arse, or a bandit, then the meaning is completely different and generally acceptable.
At least, I think that is what I'm trying to say, but I'm probably just digging a deeper hole.
