Scotland and Wales. Scotland and Wales. SCOTLAND AND WALES!!! In that order always. No I don’t know why it’s just how it’s meant to be said. No it’s not a matter of opinion. ‘Wales and Scotland’ is cringe. Like a rectangle sandwich — it’s against nature. No it isn’t just awkward cadence, or some debatable grammatical rule. No I do not care what the fucking Chicago Manual of Style says! Keep up NYTimes! It’s Scotland and Wales. Ahh much better see? Like a triangle sandwich. As god intended it. The other way is actually evil. A form of sonic warfare. ‘Offend the natives and get beat up in a dive bar’ wrong. It’s saying ‘New Finland,’ instead of ‘Newfoundlaaaaand.’ Anyway don’t.
