Youtube video - Scouse not English

[ClausThomsen]

About 3 and a half minutes in there's the usual "Go anywhere in Liverpool and everyone will help you regardless of where you're from etc etc..."

That's just not true. Nothing wrong with being proud of being from Liverpool and taking pride in your city but the amount of delusion is off the wall with some scousers.

Yeah but Scouse Not English is associated with pricks who couldn't give a minutes silence for an old woman who died a bit of respect.

Anyone can associate it with anything they wish. The title is but a 'lead-in'. Watch the vid...

1) not arsed
2) anything that wouldn't class you as a wool, @chicoazul had a map I believe
3) Indyref or bust
4) a beatles song likely, even if they're super boring
5) Tom Davies and his best dressed mates
6) an Everton crest
7) legalise beak. In fact, enforce it - everyone must use it daily.

You can be Deputy President!

Sounds like a beak-ocracy to me

Can't mate, probably won't get a Scouse passport.

Will you give me honorary citizenship mate?

Does it mention the links to the slave trade ? And some of the beautiful architecture and were the money came from to build it? Or do they brush that under the carpet

Yeah, that's bumming up the city. But a lot of narrative, particularly about the Thatcher era (which I lived through in Liverpool) is decent. And how other parts of the country look down on Liverpudlians. Believe me, I was subject to a lot of it, coming from Liverpool, when I moved with my job.

A few years ago I asked for a pack of ciggies at the airport shop and the lady looked at me like this based on the 5 words I'd said:

I felt loved.

You can double-up with the dosh as well, if you want!

It might have been cos they didnt like you?

And even so, I wouldnt care less what someone from Norwich thought of me anyrate.

Not mentioned at all, Mr Carlin. As (I presume) you rightly point out, it is a side of my city that is not good at all. As we know, Liverpool was part of the triangle of African coast-Americas coast-Liverpool.

Imagine someone whose wife is also his sister and who can swim like a walrus with his webbed appendages rustling your jimmies.

First sentence - good craic.

Second sentence - I agree, but when it's right in your face. I always ignored it. But the locals are off the scale with their insular attitude to others and the nasty vibe they give off. You may have experienced a bit of the same where you live, roydo.
