    Exactly.... whereas Dembe is completely serious in everything he posts. Seen something similar to this on another forum and that ended up in court. Not sure if Dembe realises where this sort of thing may end up.

    Watching Billions, eating Cheesecake, and posting here. Those talents will not go to waste inside.

    The Welsh's favourite topic is 'The Welsh'. Pretty much everything the Welsh media, Assembly, etc., discusses has an element of 'look how different we are from England/the English. And I'm a Welshman. I suppose it's a small-nation mentality..

    I have lived in both countries and the people don't strike me as being as different as some people would like. A red line on the map is severely overcooked as defining characteristics and Wales is not the only part of the UK that hasn't fared well economically.

    In wales , rugby has a cultural resonance and importance that goes way beyond what it's like in other countries ( what about New Zealand? )*

    It's SO embedded in our DNA as a nation ( that's your opinion )

    Kevin Brennan , Cardiff West MP*


    What a complete load of rubbish , I like rugby but it's so far up it's own arse its unbelievable*

    He goes on to say that it helps identify us as a nation which in other words means if you are on holiday in holland and some local says ahh welshman, you like rugby !, then that means everything else means jack shit*

    Thank you mr brennan for telling me what it means to be welsh , thank u BBC wales for those stupid trailers , praise the lord

    Whenever I travel abroad further than Europe it's football I use to identify us as a nation.

    "Where are you from?"

    "Wales"

    "Wayls?"

    "Ryan Giggs, Gareth Bale"

    "Aaaaah Wales!"

    is a conversation I'm sure many of us have had when thousands of miles from home. Never "Dan Biggar"

    The biggest generalisations come from the media and from the outside image we as a country portray ourselves as

    Someone saying I am proud to be welsh mun , whilst supporting an english football club like liverpool , makes a complete mockery of patriotism

    There is just as much pride , and that's not a lot , in being from guildford or Norwich
    You are right about what you find cringeworthy, but why not try and be proud of the things Wales and its people have achieved?

    But the inventions , scientists , philosophers , writers etc that have come from england is staggering in number
    So are the ones who've come from Wales.

    Re: Being Welsh

    It seems trendy these days to go overboard on self-promotion.
    I prefer to take a more modest approach.
    Self praise is no praise.

    Re: Being Welsh

    Could national pride be quite a natural thing because identification and loyalty to local groups offered our ancestors evolutionary benefits? It may be something we can’t help feeling to some extent whether we like to admit to it or not.
