By someone on here called "Bad Mother Rucker" because apparently "Rucker" is a rugby term and "no Welsh person would fail to know what it meant". As I did not recognise the term I "cannot be Welsh".
Because, of course, every Welsh person is a rugby fanatic just like every Scot eats Haggis and every Irish person likes to drink too much.
Where do these people get off with their stupid stereotypes?!?!?
For "Bad Mother Rucker's" information yes I am from Wales, born in Newport, lived in Cardiff most of my life, currently living up the valleys. I'd even post my address and ask him/her round to visit if I could be bothered!!
Sorry I just found this really amusing! Yes I know this post will get deleted but couldn't resist.
Anyone else failing to live up to their stereotypes? Aussies who don't wear a hat covered in corks?! Americans who don't eat McDonalds?! Come on you know you're out there . . .

Patrick - my other half is English. He gets a bit of stick from the odd ignorant moron (usually drunk ones after a Wales v England rugby match) but most people round here are pretty friendly!
Abertillery, hey you're not too far from me, lol!

Oh and just thought I'd mention that my other half doesn't say "What ho, tally ho chaps"or wear a bowler hat either!

MojoRisin - that silly stereotype Americans have about British people having "bad teeth" dates from the Elizabethan era would you beleive?! ie the 16th century when Brits ate a lot of sugar (from the "New World") and toothpaste had not been invented. Just shows how up to date some of these stupid stereotypes are. Oh and my teeth are very nice thanks.

I am welsh and have heard the term rucker as being someone who rucks the ball from a maul A good rucker would be someone who was good at rucking in the mauls The Welsh suffer from the stereotype image of Rugby ,Beer,chapel--although not so much anymore and the typical welshman would be a valleys man .I was born and bred in the valleys at the time when coal was king and the stereotype image was stronger then than now---just ignore them

Well you obviously are, but i thought the term was ruck, in rugby at least. Rucker is not a word i have heard associated with the game before but i am always willing to learn. And not every English man wears a bowler hat and carries a brolly either. Stereotypes don't you just love em.

Well I'm Welsh and I've never heard of a Rucker either!!! The closest word I know is ruck which means a fight! I also don't find sheep attractive, what nationality does this make me then?

May i just say yr friend is a little confused.
I myself is a north walian and from my knowledge the term "Ruck" is an act within the game of rugby as is a "lineout" or a "scrum".
I think this guy is confused with the term "Rugger" as i have used and heard this in place of the word rugby.
In the playground kids may say fancy a game of Rugger?
or Soccer?.
I have never heard the term used Rucker.
i thank you.

I'm British and I have the nicest set of teeth in Christendom.
As do most of the people i know - where does that particular stereotype come from?

I'm Scottish and not at all fond of haggis. I don't believe this makes me any less Scottish as I still go around saying "och! aye the noo" at every given opportunity. I've tried stopping this but I can't!
Ignore this tw*t as he's obviously got little going on in his head!
