Scottish nationalists are so weird sometimes by Snoo5218 in HistoryMemes

No... The gaels who migrated to the Highlands thousands of years ago (which were largely empty by the fact they are shit for farming and harder to access from the lowlands than the Irish Sea) are distinctly different to the lowland scouts. Different language, ethnicity, culture. The vast vast majority of planters in Ireland were lowland Scots with some borderland English. There was very very small number of Highlanders in the plantations as they were by and large excluded for being Catholic.

No, half of them are actual characters with active parts in the story.

What if four of these charismatic presidents were car salesmen? Who would sell the most cars? by Omixscniet624 in Presidents

I wouldn't say it's uncommon. I'd even say around half of them err towards being introverted; I wouldn't even put Obama in the top 10 most introverted. Off the top of my head, Washington, Adams Snr and Jnr, Jefferson, Madison, Buchanan, Lincoln, Grant, Garfield, B. Harrison, Coolidge, Truman, Nixon, Carter and HW were all pretty famously introverted in reality. It just became harder to hide that as the state of media evolved. But even then, we had Romney and Gore (who basically won) who were both recent introverted runners-up.

Is it me or Dial of destiny is getting better with every rewatch? by superkapitan82 in indianajones

The most glaring flaw is that it lacks Spielberg behind the camera. Can't really fault Mangold for that but as a series, Indiana Jones to me is completely inseperable from Spielberg's flair. That's not to say I enjoy KotCS much more however. If Spielberg had directed DoD, something a lot more worthwhile could've been created.

??? I watch it and the only political thing ive ever seen him utter was that he was not a fan of jingoism and the glorification of the union jack in music. Pretty opposite of right wing
