Looks like Mr Bairn got bloottered and declared his undying love to bird B - and she's told him he's a whopper.

:( RIP.

Thankfully not. Bird B got the proverbial boot in the pie on Sunday night and it turned out bird A had been absolutely nasty to two of my (female) best friends so now I don't feel bad about being a dickhead to her

The word "like" has to be the most overused word in Scotland. Especially among young lassies. There are two sitting across from me on the train the now and like every second word seems to be like the word like. It's like very annoying and like makes you wonder what they were doing when they were supposed to be in an English class. I know like that folk say swearing is just a sign of a low vocabulary but I'm like not sure what I'd rather be hearing right now. The odd "f**k" and "dick" or "like", "like", "like". Fucking, Facebook nation <_<

I say like at the end of my sentences all the time. It's the East Coasts 'but'. Good day like. No bad like. Thought that like.

I never realised I did this until recently, I can't help it and it's started to really annoy me. Just as much as the Weegies saying but at the end of everything does.

The example you used isn't Scotland specific though, that's just English spoken teenage girls worldwide.

I'm sure you would like to be hearing the words 'f**k' and 'dick' coming from the two lassies :whistle

You don't ask, you don't get.

I tend to do it myself! (Hence why it's in here and not the PTTGOYN topic, as that would be pretty hypocritical, even though it does my head in). Like you I've only recently noticed I do it frequently and it bugs the shite outa me. It's nowhere near as bad as certain folk though. I tend to put it at the end of sentences when I do it but these two were using it everywhere in their sentences, not just the final word which made it all the more noticable. Edited by 19QOS19

One was a definite 'wid' it has to be said. And she was comfortably over 18 before I get tarnished with the beast brush :lol:

18 months more like. BEAST. You have the keys to a hospital and possibly lots of gaudy Argos gold jewellery. You may also have fronted a popular Welsh rock band. What is undisputable though is that you clearly worked for the BBC in the 1970s.

It's not an East Coast thing. It must be a 1320Lichtie thing.
