It's like "I am wearing a skirt, and I have balls". Or in this case, "I am wearing a kilt, and I have balls".

Just remember that i have a Sgian Dubh. Anyone picks on the Skirty lad, it's me ye'l answer to! ;)

Men in Skirts are not unusual in Scotland. There's a very distinct difference between a man in a Skirt and a man in a Kilt though. The difference being the guy in the Kilt is about 300* more likely to kick your ass if you mistake him for the other guy.

So Omega...was this as part of some social experiment? A Halloween costume? Curiosity? A hilarious incident involving a dry-cleaning mix-up?

Well since I have the time to sit and read these forums now, and should be more of an active member of the community here, I'll post my pic.

I couldn't find a good pic of just me so I found a camp reunion pic.

Thats me (in blue) with a camper of a hemophilia camp that I have been going to for 9 years and now I'm a counselor.

wat is hemophilia?

*Raises hand*

:eek:

hemophilia is a blood disorder. People who have it can bleed out from a scratch or even a bruise. I believe it stops the blood from coagulating.?

haha...i have to agree...ive done that before.....and before i started dating my girlfriend...her and her friend were "accidently" dropping quarters at the DDR machine at the mall to see if they could get a sneak peek

i mostly did it to see what kind of responses i get outta people....you can always have a lot of fun with it...

plus when your favorite band is Mindless Self Indulgence...skirts dont bother you too much

Well put, that is a very good basic definition of hemophilia. There are several types, but the main problem is the person's body is lacking a particluar protein needed for the series of events which produce a "clot" to occur. The effects are usually much more subtle than "bleeding out", but can be troublesome none the less. A much more dramatic bleeding problem is called "disseminated intravascular coagulation", and this can happen to anyone. The result of this problem definately can cause a person to "bleed out" even without a cut. It is one of the more horrific conditions I've ever witnessed.
