@daydreamer this made me lol

Whenever I think of someone having a Scottish accent I can’t help but think of groundskeeper Willie from The Simpsons. That’s probably way off, though lol.

tbh the neds are ok to an extent, i’d trust a ned over a junky any time, neds are just boisterous kids in sportswear, if there was a team of them on a Saturday night it can be dangerous lol,

junkies seem to always be dangerous, i like it when they try and turn themselves around, that takes balls. but i still dont know if i could completely trust them

Has some bad words but is meant to be a parody and be a social comment

I struggle a lot more with thick English accents than with Scottish ones. Maybe the Scottish intonation is more familiar to me or something.

I knew a girl that fell into addiction and would hustle any way she could. You soon learned that she couldn’t be trusted. But that was the addiction not her. She was still a good person with a bad habit.

A lot of northern scottish accents (like the islands) are a bit Nordic. Maybe that makes it easier to your ear @anon9798425?

Yeah I think so. Did you have a lot of vikings there historically?

Oh for sure. I had an Icelandic teacher at school and she said a lot of the street names up north were old Norse in origin.
