Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 what i mean is when you go on holiday and someone says where are you from ? your better off just saying Glasgow. DUMBARTONIANS, SONS OF THE ROCK and god knows what else. People from Silverton in Dumbarton were called "ranchers" for some reason, i've never known why. Anyone over here asks me and I just say "Near Glasgow", normally followed by "Yes, that's the west" or "Yes, that is seen as the violent bit". The correct answer here is actually "just next to Loch Lomond".Watch English c***s gasp at how lucky you are to live in such a beautiful part of the world.I avoid all connections to Glasgow like the plague.

I grew up a 2 minute walk from the Glasgow border and now live in the middle of what is universally considered to be one of the most beautiful countries in the world. They are more impressed by the hint of violence than the hint of a midgie ridden pond that rarely sees temperatures over 20c. It is fucking beautiful though.

Meant to say, they were called Ranchers because Silverton was basically built on farmlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAD Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 You can just imagine some purple faced munter in an Aberdeen shop getting raging and telling off some out of tower who didn't speak properly, whilst the locals nod along approvingly. A scene that sums up shit-town Scotland beautifully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 You can easily slip into the habit of finishing sentences with “eh” or “but” without realising it and not many people will pull you up over it no matter how annoying it gets.

Something about his manner implied that he was a bit worse for wear. I was escorting the wife home from a late show at the big cinema on Renfrew/Renfield Street, otherwise I'd have hung around to offer encouragement. As it was, the missus hadn't been in the country long, so there was a certain amount of, "this way, dear, we'll miss the last train, never mind what he's doing". ^^^^ Mail-order bride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are under 40 and in good health and you do not think Glasgow is clearly far superior to every other City in Scotland, you probably have some kind of mental deficiency. If you're over 40 and in good health you don't live in Glasgow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy boo Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Anyone, weegie or otherwise, that ends a sentence with the word 'but' needs put down. Did he not say Bud and was picked up wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooking noted simpletons like the West Ham jammy wearer and a cyclist isn't an achievement. Fully agree. Quality trolling is a art form. Shite trolling, meanwhile, is more along the lines of: i) pretending to be dense, making a statement that's deliberately wrong or nonsensical ii) people pull you up by saying "that statement you just said is clearly wrong/nonsensical, you idiot" iii) HAHA JOKES ON YOU I WAS JUST PRETENDING TO BE STUPID THIS WHOLE TIME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
