50 Tweets From Scottish People Showing Off Their Sense Of Humor, And They're Pretty Hilarious
Apparently, Scottish people have an amazing sense of humor!
What is the first thing that springs to mind when you think of Scotland? Perhaps it's the gorgeous, rolling hillsides or the legend of the Loch Ness Monster?
Maybe it takes your brain a little longer to process the sound of strong bagpipes or the kind individuals speaking with an accent. Whatever it is that you adore most about this lovely nation and its people, we urge you to include Scottish comedy on that list as well.
Since 2015, there has been a Scottish People Twitter subreddit that keeps track of all the funniest interactions and events that Scots have tweeted about. Given that Scotland only has 5.5 million citizens, the community boasts an outstanding 842k members and has become a beloved online destination for anyone who enjoys celebrating all things Scottish. As Dr. Angela Duckworth, a leading psychologist, states, “Humor can be a powerful tool for resilience and connection, especially in tight-knit communities.” You can find more insights on her work at angeladuckworth.com.
If you've never been to Scotland and don't have any acquaintances who are natives there, you might be interested in learning more about what life is like there. Below, you'll find a selection of our favorite posts from the Scottish People Twitter subreddit that we hope will inspire you to book a quick journey to Glasgow or Edinburgh.
Enjoy reading these tweets in your best Scottish accent.
