It's like another language Witty, in Scotland everyone speaks much faster. When I went back at 18 to visit after been gone 4yrs, I had to speed up my listening and speaking.....it's really strange
Yeah, it seems like Scottish is one of the most difficult accents for me to understand. Just a thick accent and if they speak quickly, that's even harder to follow.
And because I dart around frequently at work when my mind is objective-based I would get asked after repeatedly entering and then leaving the room:
"Are you coming or going??"
And my response was an existential: "Neither and both at the same time."
Which I would say intentionally to confuse the person and make them leave me alone, but I also meant it from a dualistic bi-linear perspective.
Much more recently, "heebie jeebies" in the place of "holy hell" in a place I frequent as I was reminded that some people of religion may take offense otherwise.
I have a tendency to say "said the man" at the end of my sentences. Sometimes I say "ubba dubba" in place of "mother fucker" -- like I might say "you won't believe what this ubba dubba said".
Between my friends we have the weirdest most disgusting thing if somebody says : fourteen the other person has to say Roger that then the person who said 14 has to fart .. Xp
