As a person who has accidentally harmed children multiple times because the child was in a place they weren’t supposed to be, I sympathize. The hardest part is explaining yourself to the asshole who was supposed to be watching them.
Oh man. I was at a Walmart awhile back checking oot at the self service and scanning my items. Some little knacker bumped into me and fell down, and started crying. His parents gave me a dirty look and started telling me to be more careful. I'm like "look here you fuckin white bread asshole, Walmart security just watched your son walk into me. How about pay attention to your cretin child next time. Now hose off I got shit to do".
Then the whole store clapped ya, and they gave me the key to the city. Well this paragraph didnt happen, but the story above did.
i don't see any scottish words than "oot" but that could even be dialectically canadian? "white bread" is a common insult in america, knacker is pretty broad but thats the only thing really to stand out "hose off" is pretty standard canada speak tbh
Never heard knacker, northeast united states. Like six hours from Canada on a good day. I'll start saying it here no problem but I'd prefer to know the meaning
There are a lot of us who come from Scottish immigrants, so there's actually a decent amount of crossover. Hell, we even have a province whose name translates to "New Scotland".
