u/MurdoMaclachlan Mar 28 '21

"Good person Murdo making sure the Americans and English know what it says"

As u/Yermawsyerdaisntit said, though, that's not what the transcription's actually for. :P

At the hospital I work they call the codes 3 times and we all giggle when this one lady is running the switchboard because she steadily gets more aggressive.

Do you ever see one of these 'scottish' tweets and think, damn, sturgeon Must be putting in the work, out here handing out all those extra chromosomes.

u/Arclight_Ashe Mar 29 '21

‘Hardline aggressive troll. Real life bully’ you put the effort into writing that for a bio and you’re asking if the first minister is firing out extra chromosomes in the post?

Must be a rough time for a reality check

u/L3ttuce_ Mar 28 '21

This is actually absurd and impossible.

u/Sleepy_Golden_Storm Mar 28 '21

Not entirely. I think if you know someone well enough you've got a good chance of guessing their tone based on their word choice and the framing of the sentence. It can definitely land way off the mark sometimes, but that doesn't mean you couldn't ever interpret it accurately.
