"Being a lesbian sucks sometimes. You tell another girl she's a hottie, and she says, "thanks" like we're being friendly. I ain't just being friendly, I'm trying to fuck!"
I think I translated it correctly.
Thanks for translating. As a non native English speaker I nearly got a stroke trying to understand these.... words.
As a native English speaker, me too.
Isn't "coming from you" a put down? Or does it more mean "you care about fashion and looks, so obviously you know"?
...And she says, "thanks" knowing I'm a lesbian and appreciate female beauty sexually taking the complement more intensely. I ain't just being....
ITIFTFY?
I think gays and straights have the same problem, though.
Where i come from a shag is a party
That's a shag, a noun. What about the verb, to shag?
where i come from it's a carpet
or just particularly thick pubes
That's how I read it too.
Also, this is how a girl politely turns you down. I take heart that lesbians are in the same boat as hetero guys when it comes to this struggle. I read this and think "oh, girls are bad at this too!"
I swear Scottish people are the only ones who type in their own phonetic accent
Scots isn't just an accent, it's a language in its own right.Although honestly I'm not sure how much of this is Scots and how much is just specific to Scottish twitter lolSo actually having done some more reading this isn't Scots - I'm fairly sure this is Scottish English which is somewhat a merging of Scots with English.
Lots of people do it here in Austria too, and I hate it.
A geh, is doch iagendwie liab, oda?
Übahaupt, jetzt wo si Hochdeutsch imma mea duachsetzt, und vü junge Leit übahaupt nimma richtig östareichisch1 redn leanan, missn ma doch schaun, dass unsa Sproch net oafoch ausstiabt, oda?
Mia hom a a longe Tradition, wonns um Mundoatdichtung geht. Da Dichta von da obaöstareichischn Hymne zum Beispü, da Stelzhamer Franz, hot gonz vü in Mundoat gschribn.
Und weis ma grod eifoit: Es gibt a a eigene Wikipedia in unsam Dialekt: https://bar.wikipedia.org/ Oba do dua i ma söm schwah, dass i des vasteh. De is scho in da äagstn von de oagn Mundoatn gschribm.
(So, jetzt woas i net, wöcha Sproch i im Dropdown do untn auswöhn soid... Wei wirklich Deitsch is des jo net...)
[1] I am fully aware that the dialect I'm writing in is not called "Austrian". The two big dialects spoken in Austria are "Alemannic" and "Bavarian", and the one I'm writing is the Bavarian dialect. I'm only using the word "östareichisch" here, because that's what I expect most people to use in spoken conversation.
I hate reading the Americans now typing "y'all".
I'm not American and I will forever type y'all because it's useful and I like it lol
Y'all is just a useful word, other ways of referring to a group of people are ambiguous, esp. now that They doesn't always mean multiple
y'all is a legitimate word and i'll fight you over it.
It's easier if you read it out loud with a Scottish accent. Works for novels as well!

"PICTSIES!"
Cracks me up every time.
One of, literally, 1,000 moments where I thought, "Wait. Why are they 'pict...' Ah hell no."
The most brilliant and entertaining series I've ever read. Plowed all 41 in just a couple of months.
Ye gods, Wee Mad Arthur was bad enough. At least he's inside pissing out
I understood that, surprisingly.
2nd attempt, but I got there
First attempt I was like "wtf am I reading?" then I read it with a Scottish accent and it made perfect sense
I miss scottishpeopletwitter, did that move over here?
U can make one, then post the reddit posts here until the sub goes off
The least politically loaded and agenda-pushing peopletwitter. That sub encapsulates the lightheartedness of Scottish people.
Just don't ask them about Brexit

A lot of privateers were from Scotland and Ireland!
Is there a Duolingo for this particular language?
"Ye x"? So her ex?
x = kiss
legible
Most legible
Most is doing a ton of heavy lifting there.
I think I'm having a stroke.
I can't figure out what half of that says and want a translation
Being lesbo sucks. I tell a girl that she's banging and you get "coming from you 👸🏼". Literally no, I'm not saying that to be your pal, I'm saying it to shag you...
Or something, I'm not Scottish
I am not a native speaker. Prolonged exposure to the demoman from TF2 meant that I could understand all of this on first try. I am proud.
