I'm Scottish and honestly we rarely drink and we invented most shit you use daily and created masterpieces

I strike you're nerve? Sorry, kiddo, that's life.
>>8444242
>Harry Potter and the Heroin-Blood Prince
But Burroughs is american
>>8447103
Come on man, I'm scottish too. The inventions thing is a meme and we drink a fuckton. We are also one of those countries whose artistic hey-dey is yet to come (we have Burns and some decent modernists. Who else?)
I have a theory that when Scotland gets its independance, we'll have a cultural rennaissance similar to Ireland's during the modernist period and produce a work of a similar magnitude to Ulysses (obviusly in a very different form). So if you want Scotland to be an artistic force, that should be your main concern.
