What can I say? I just love the accent! e.g. Dr. Beckett on Stargate Atlantis! Fat Bastard on Austin Powers, etc. etc.

Truly, there is no greater accent than that of the Scottish on this planet!

Long live the Scottish!

There are quite a few variants of Scottish that you've probably never heard. There's not a single, unified "Scottish accent".

I've got Scottish roots that run deep. Almost as deep as my Irish roots. The bagpipes kick *ss. I'd love to visit there sometime.

Scotch-Irish, eh? Same here, but with some native American Chickasaw and Cherokee thrown in. There's also some English, French, German, and Scandinavian from way back, but it's my Scotch-Irish roots that make up the most of my family tree.

In short, my skin is very white.

Ditto. Hurrah for all the German-Irish-Scotch-Swiss-Austrian-Americans out there, by the by.

I am Scottish with Welsh and Brazillian thrown in. I am the palest 1/2 Brazillian ever. My grandmother was a true Scot and she, and her accent, and her colorful way of speaking, was awesome.

Yeah, well, whatever. :p

They still sound awfully sexy. Although Irish is even a tad better, IMHO. *swoons*

The Irish accent is the best in the world. Very pleasant to listen to and easy to understand. Seeing as the Scottish were originally from Ireland, I guess you could say their accent is the second best in the world. :D

Fife is a fine place. I used to work for Marconi in Dalgety bay (can't spell it though) and often stayed around there.
Finest hotel breakfasts in the world.
Bar none.
No, really.

I'm mostly Irish, Serbian, and German, but I've got a small bit of Scottish blood in me, along with some Swedish and Bohemian.
