Advice For Americans In UK Pubs
July 17, 2014 at 7:33 pm
An American tourist was in a pub in Cardiff, and heard three somewhat, erm, hefty women chatting at the bar. Assuming their accent was Scottish, he approached and asked, 'What part of Scotland are you three lovely lassies from?'
The beefiest of the three (clearly in her cups) shouted at the man, 'It's Wales, you idiot. WALES!!'
'Oh, I'm terribly sorry,' replied the man. 'What part of Scotland are you lovely whales from?'
The coroner's inquest is due Friday week.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
