ICTJohnboy Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 People who, in my present area, on hearing a Scottish accent can't resist in coming out with the time honoured classic comment : "Ock aye the noo, Jock" Scottish born and bred I may me but I don't even know what that means. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punch them in the throat and when they look shocked just say "sorry, that's how we greet that phrase in Scotland, were you not aware"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a similar vein , I've never heard anyone saying "Foos yer doos ?" , despite living most of my life in the North-East. I tell a lie. I've heard it said occasionally by folk trying (and failing miserably) to take the pish out of Doric speakers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Auld gits who feel the need to needlessly whistle in any situation. Tuneless, random whistling, in the gym changing room, on a bus, in a coffee shop, anywhere. Usually these auld duffers combine their tuneless whistling tourettes with ‘change rattling’.... a pile of coins in their trouser pockets, and their hand plunged into the pocket, constantly churning the coins around. Shooting is too good for these irritating auld fcuks. Edited August 27, 2019 by pozbaird 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard it said occasionally by folk trying (and failing miserably) to take the pish out of Doric speakersI have. The resident bell end at work says it because he is utterly determined to be as Doric as possible and using it in an attention seeking type way. The type who often tries to use overly Doric sentences then stares at you hoping you will ask what he is saying. Cringe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I’ve mentioned this in a slightly different context but I hate people who call everyone “mate”. I have a useless work colleague who calls everyone mate when fobbing work off.I’m watching “Call The Cops” and the police call everyone “mate”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 All Scottish news readers and weather girls all have the same voice apart from the two teuchters. It’s like they’re talking to a baby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what any of it means though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Related to this is the tone deaf "Guys guys cross everything we're gonna break a record!!!1" tweets of the met office when it's like 39 degrees and crops are dying.Thanks crops dying now.I hate the way the presenters on Reporting Scotland speak, so unbelievably patronising. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
