I'm sooooooooo angry, raging, fuming, livid etc etc,
I'm Scottish. I'm proud to be a Scot. I'm proud of my accent, of who the fuck i am.
What is it about me being Scottish that stirs in people the need to ridicule me for who i am. Why in god's name do people think, that I will find it funny, to be at the end of ridicule about being Scottish. I don't. I find it extremely patronising, ignorant and arrogant.
So far, I have purposefully removed myself from situations which have inflamed me. When the stirrings of frustration with another begin, i will remove myself, rather than head on into a discussion tainted with anger.
However, enough is enough. If its down to people not thinking, then its totally about time that they began to think. There are sooooooo many wonderful wonderful people in this world, yet the thought of another evening of digs and comments just seems like too much effort.
How would you feel? You travel for hours and hours to support and then sit and get the piss ripped out of you for your accent. You go into the chatroom, and have the comments about being tight with your money because of who you are.
I'm not against having the piss ripped out of me, or of having a laugh, i can do it, and take it with the best of them. Could it not be about something other than who I am?
Lots of love, hugs and kisses

Scottish - To be made fun of ?
Orgasminator
The Scottish are a lovely people, i spent many a late summer up there and my honeymoon too and have always been made welcome. I have recently made contact with a scottish couple (in scotland) from this site and they are both lovely people aswell.

My symphathy - it annoys me to hear Liverpool put down too.
Instead of being wound up maybe you could feel sorry for those wishy-washy sassenach serfs, jealous of your national spirit. Unfortunately I am one of them but the scottish accent, in its many forms, is one of my favourites.

Scots are fine people: the greatest friends I ever had-and some of the best times-were in Scotland.
But, I have found that people are great wherever they hail from...they are like cabbages.
(What's the mad country fool on about NOW??I hear you say)
Well, for years I've grown cabbages-well, someone has to-and have learned one thing.
In every row there are those that look impressive. They usually get overblown and eaten by caterpillars. There are those that are really weak, and have to be coaxed along, rewarding, but a bit of a pain really. Then, the season finishes, snow falls, and when you walk out among the dead and dying foliage, you notice a couple that you hadn't noticed before. They'd been there all the time, in the background, but when you really needed them...there they were, ready to supply your needs.
People are pretty much the same really.

Agricola, are you calling little a cabbage?? :shock:
I've had many Scottish friends through both a ten year stint in the RN and also in my civilian life. I've even made a few through this site and i enjoy the times i bump into them.
I don't think there's anything wrong with a bit of rib tickling about each other's nationality. In fact I think it's only natural that it happens. You always need to know where to draw the line though.

:shock: Irish father (to make it worse, a kerry man!), Jewish mother, Brought up in Scotland, and live in Wales!!! If I let it get to me, Id be arguing about the perceived financial wisdom of the jews, the generosity of the Scots, not just the stupidity of the Irish, but the ones the Irish make fun off, and sheep shaging!!!!!
Im not immune to the generalisations made about my heritage...but I try not to let it get to me!

We have had the piss taken out of us for being scots also but it is all in good fun, banter between friends.
We haven't come across anyone on this site that has been nasty towards the scottish folk.
Hopefully we never will.

scots are tight, the irish are stupid, students don't wash, all americans are rednecks and all arabs are terrorists. Oh, and black men all have massive cocks. All nonsense, of course, apart from the manky students thing. Oh, and they're lazy too.
People like to latch onto something. They don't know me, but if they know i'm scottish they assume i want to get drunk on the cheapest booze i can find, and fight them.
It's all in jest, and YES, it does get tiring, but if someone's so unimaginative, or has so little chat that they have to start relying on stereotypes, do you really want to talk to them? Or if that's their mentality, take the piss back. It's not the end of the world. If it annoys you so much, you're too up tight, or your life's so cushy that being called a tight jock is considered a calamity.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :rotflmao:rotflmao:rotflmao This seriously is not about anyone at all in particular. If it was, have no fear, i would have brought it up with whoever it might have been, but since there isn't anyone, it was very much an overview.
Its just about people not overstepping and knowing when to stop when something IS actually funny and when it just isn't.
I'm not highly strung, or over sensitive about anything. I respect other people, their opinions, their lifestyles. I am not anyone out of the ordinary.
I suppose what i have learned from this outburst of anger that at some points in our lives we each are in the minority. When a time comes when i'm not the minority, but someone else, then a wee laugh a joke about what ever it is, is cool, but never to take it too far.
Thankyou all for the lesson.

I've done my response about this elsewhere. Just remember that Jags is the nickname of Partick Thistle Football Club and I have lived in Newcastle for over 20 years!!
Scots accents are so much more attractive (to my ears) than the Geordie one, even after so long here I can't take the 'gazza' speak seriously. Don't mistake me, I really enjoy living here and Newcastle has some magnificent architecture and a small pocket of wonderful art. I just wish they spoke like me! :D
Be proud of your heritage and content in the knowledge that the Scots pioneered the modern world and brought a sense of innovation and learning and exploring and, more fundamentally, education to the rest of the United Kingdom. (yes, I know there are too many 'ands' in that sentence, it's done for emphasis!!).

People take the piss out of other peoples nation's sterotypes.
People take the piss out of micks, jocks, paddys, taffs, yanks, frogs etc etc and so on and so on.
Its not personal - its just the way of things
In fact it probably acts as an ice breaker for people who have a difficulty communicating - if you have nothing to say take the piss out of their nationality.
Personally I do not think this is rascism - no one is being discriminated against.
And theres no stereotypes without fire......... :wink:

I am a Weegie and proud of it.
Not the soap dodging, pill popping, Buckie drinking, minging layabout with the tracksuit and burberry bunnet.
But a Weegie anyway and one of the things that is getting to me recently is the kids who speak incoherently either due to drugs or watching too much East Enders.
Have you heard a Glasgow kid with a Glasgow/Cockney mix accent. Believe me it aint nice .
Either that or I'm getting old.
