> What I mean is that we cannot say if this guy can be a good or a bad person only considering how he is being 16 years old He raped and killed a 6 year old, a lot of us were wee dickheads at 16, this boy is a genuine monster. You can't redeem that level of sickness by snarf372 (Thu 21st Mar 2019 5:33pm)

Grew up in Yoker/Whitecrook (Clydebank), it's a violent shitehole. Couldn't say on the others by snarf372 (Thu 28th Mar 2019 8:16pm)

I got the hell out the instant I could! by snarf372 (Sat 30th Mar 2019 1:02pm)

He's actually an alright guy in person. Used to train at the same gym as him and spoke to him fairly often, was a bit surprised when I discovered his internet persona by snarf372 (Fri 5th Apr 2019 2:37pm)

> Aye right, chuck aw the punters oot oan the street at the same effin time, great idea I live in Liverpool now and I've have encountered chaos on the level of chucking out time in Glasgow city centre here. Everyone leaves at their own pace mostly and it being much more staggered makes everything a lot less mental. No one feels the need to get tanked as early as possible either as there isn't such a hard limit on the night ending by snarf372 (Wed 17th Apr 2019 3:47pm)

There are a few computer rooms in the Joseph Black building that are normally deserted (well at least there were when I was a student circa 2012). by snarf372 (Mon 22nd Apr 2019 4:55pm)

>is it actually that bad? Pretty much. Yoker is a hole, you don't want to live there. by snarf372 (Tue 23rd Apr 2019 10:31pm)

Is it 2012 again? by snarf372 (Tue 28th May 2019 4:26pm)

Don't be such a joyless prick, it's a bloody pirate flag not a hammer and sickle. Probably has it up for a kid that loves pirates by snarf372 (Wed 29th May 2019 2:36pm)

Pinto was fucking quality, barburrito is manky by snarf372 (Mon 3rd Jun 2019 7:59pm)

In my mind a millennial is someone who doesn't remember a time before mobile phones and the internet, wouldn't ever consider myself one (27) by snarf372 (Tue 4th Jun 2019 1:47pm)

Exact same here. I remember the first time I used a computer with a sound card never mind an internet connection, dial up was like fucking magic when it arrived by snarf372 (Tue 4th Jun 2019 1:54pm)

Technically aye, but I'd never think of myself as a millennial - I think of them as people who grew up surrounded by the internet and mobile phones which I find hard to imagine/identify with by snarf372 (Tue 4th Jun 2019 5:21pm)

Definitely not just you. Glasgow is an utter shitehole. by snarf372 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 9:47am)

Left 3 years ago, best decision I ever made. Place is a fucking hole. I genuinely don't understand the love so many people seemingly have for Glasgow. by snarf372 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 9:45am)

Liverpool, it's not perfect but a hell of a lot nicer than Glasgow by snarf372 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 11:08am)

Just voicing an opinion mate, no need to be a snidey cunt about it. The generation born in the late nineties had a massively different experience growing up than those in the late eighties/early nineties and the term "millennial" in colloquial usage almost exclusively refers to the former even if all are technically millennials by snarf372 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 12:54pm)

Aye? Is that why everyone is always miserable and a huge number of them abuse drugs and alcohol? I understand not hating the place but to call it "great" is bizarre by snarf372 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 12:57pm)

I get that others have different experiences and admittedly being from a shite part has coloured my view of the place but I find that Glasgow is far worse than most other parts of Britain I've been to in just about every way - I'd argue that Glasgow is objectively a bad place to live (by British standards) by snarf372 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 1:06pm)

I did say by British standards..I've been to plenty of hellholes in southern Europe and North Africa that make Glasgow look like a paradise but that's not really what we're discussing. by snarf372 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 1:45pm)

You're not wrong, you're just an arsehole by snarf372 (Sat 8th Jun 2019 8:25pm)

You were being intentionally dense and you know it, was pretty clear what the guy was getting at but you had to be the prick pulling him up on a technicality by snarf372 (Sat 8th Jun 2019 8:31pm)

I fucking loved irn bru 32, wish they'd bring it back by snarf372 (Sun 9th Jun 2019 9:16am)

Other than virgin (and some small FTTP providers none of whom operate in the area afaik) all providers will use the same network - if you stick the full address in here it'll show you what sort of speeds you can expect via BT/sky/talk talk etc (addresses even next door to each other can have huge differences in speed if routed through different sections of network): https://www.dslchecker.bt.com/ by snarf372 (Tue 11th Jun 2019 11:02pm)

No worries mate by snarf372 (Tue 11th Jun 2019 11:15pm)

You probably already know this but just in case, just because your exchange can provide G fast doesn't mean your cabinet has been upgraded to provide it - you also need to be close enough to it that they can give you a minimum guaranteed download speed of 100Mbps (normally up to ~250m - and the routing of the line can be quite odd and winding). by snarf372 (Mon 17th Jun 2019 9:09pm)

If that's what concerns you then avoid sky like the plague, BT normally pay for the quickest repair timescale by snarf372 (Tue 18th Jun 2019 9:59am)

Cunts should be facing 20 years bare minimum. The justice system in this country is pathetic. by snarf372 (Wed 26th Jun 2019 9:55pm)

Was thinking John Brown's. Didn't that get shut down after a guy got killed? by snarf372 (Wed 24th Jul 2019 7:16pm)

Kilbowie is a hole even by Clydebank standards. The whole Yoker/Whitecrook area is also fucking grim. by snarf372 (Thu 25th Jul 2019 9:21am)

A 15 year old white kid walked past me at the shopping centre once dressed like soulja boy and unironically said "wassup my nigga" by snarf372 (Thu 25th Jul 2019 10:27am)

I'll take that over a council estate in Yoker any day by snarf372 (Thu 25th Jul 2019 3:10pm)

Definitely improved over the last 10 years but still shite. Those things going is definitely a big step forward, lived right next to them at the train station and they had some real creatures in them. The back end of Whitecrook at Braes avenue is probably the worst bit now by snarf372 (Thu 25th Jul 2019 5:26pm)

I moved to Liverpool, paradise compared to Glasgow by snarf372 (Thu 25th Jul 2019 11:39pm)

I live in England and need to keep it on almost all of the time, always called it phone voice by snarf372 (Mon 5th Aug 2019 7:23am)

Just noticed that eBay seller's based in Castlemilk (some coincidence lol) -red hot comics https://www.redhotcomics.co.uk/index.php/about-us#Where by snarf372 (Thu 15th Aug 2019 10:31pm)

No worries mate, I like comics too and it piqued my interest lol. by snarf372 (Thu 15th Aug 2019 10:41pm)

Nah, sounds interesting though (big warhammer fan and sounds very grimdark) by snarf372 (Thu 15th Aug 2019 11:29pm)

Yeah man, definitely looks like my kind of thing. All the images from it I've seen could easily be depictions of the warhammer universe by snarf372 (Thu 15th Aug 2019 11:39pm)

Used to train in the same gym as him and spoke to him fairly regularly without having a clue about his whole online persona thing, he's actually alright when being himself and not putting on an act for attention by snarf372 (Sun 8th Sep 2019 3:19pm)

Think I'm one of the few stargate fans that absolutely loved SGU. Was gutted when it ended the way it did by snarf372 (Sun 8th Sep 2019 3:22pm)

We have enough mental cunts in Yoker as it is by snarf372 (Wed 9th Oct 2019 8:43pm)

The scenes in "Yoker" were filmed around Clydebank college by snarf372 (Wed 9th Oct 2019 11:01pm)

Aye was filmed in Clydebank around the college by snarf372 (Wed 9th Oct 2019 11:00pm)

The cunts in suits outside WH Smith are the worst of the lot by snarf372 (Sat 19th Oct 2019 9:00pm)

For the areas to avoid maybe by snarf372 (Fri 25th Oct 2019 7:49pm)

Not much explanation needed really, Dalmuir is a dump by snarf372 (Sat 26th Oct 2019 11:14am)

Replaced the big ones with the roofs etc with the little metal ones like 10 years ago maybe by snarf372 (Sun 27th Oct 2019 9:43am)

Unless things have changed in the past 10 years or so, aren't a lot of the estates in Parkhead hardcore Rangers areas? by snarf372 (Thu 12th Dec 2019 8:40am)

Outcast barbell in Clydebank is probably your best bet by snarf372 (Sat 21st Dec 2019 10:06am)

Texas are a specific brand of DL bar but yeah, 27mm + longer than a power bar and no centre knurl by snarf372 (Sat 21st Dec 2019 8:54pm)

Guy's a wank but not buying the sexism angle. Worked in an off licence when I was younger and used to hear it from dickhead customers all the time (I'm a fairly large and hairy guy). I usually just gave them a deadpan "no". Tended to catch them off guard and hopefully made at least a few realise what a dick move it is. by snarf372 (Mon 23rd Dec 2019 5:08pm)

It's someone else's private land mate, you sound like an entitled prick. by snarf372 (Sat 28th Dec 2019 6:39pm)

You're bitching and whining about not being able to use something that belongs to other people like a child. Have a word with yourself. by snarf372 (Sat 28th Dec 2019 6:58pm)

> The riverside ought to belong to all Glaswegians. Well it doesn't. This bit belongs to the people who've bought it, as such they get to use it and you don't. Most people learn concepts such as this and come to terms with them at an early age. by snarf372 (Sat 28th Dec 2019 7:32pm)

> Heard good things about Cathouse, but the crowd looks really young (judging by photos on their website). Upstairs aye, downstairs is more of a mix age wise and plays heavier stuff by snarf372 (Thu 9th Jan 2020 11:50pm)

I live in England now and the Indian food is completely different (nowhere near as good and much more expensive for some reason), Glasgow Indian appears to be fairly unique in my experience by snarf372 (Sat 18th Jan 2020 1:12am)

Two teenage girls loudly fingering each other up the back of the 6 Guy getting spinebustered down the stairs of the 2 Guy taking a pish in a beer bottle then downing it to get rid of the evidence (also on the 2) Probably more that I can't think of, the 2 is essentially a mobile ghetto by snarf372 (Mon 20th Jan 2020 10:19pm)

Faifley to Airdrie via Clydebank/Partick/city centre/Baillieston/Coatbridge by snarf372 (Mon 20th Jan 2020 10:56pm)

Faifley > Clydebank > Partick > City centre > Parkhead > Baillieston > Coatbridge > Airdrie by snarf372 (Mon 20th Jan 2020 11:03pm)

Aye it goes through Yoker (where I'm from and got on/off actually), left it out because you can't really get from Clydebank to Patrick without going through it unless you take a dodgy route by snarf372 (Mon 20th Jan 2020 11:14pm)

And the delightful Whiteinch! by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jan 2020 9:15am)

I really don't! by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jan 2020 12:14pm)

Still, no buses terminate in Yoker and they filmed that scene in Clydebank by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jan 2020 12:13pm)

> there was a guy obviously pretending to be on his phone and making up a monologue about how he was going to stab a cunt. 50s, thin, leather jacket with slicked back hair? by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jan 2020 12:18pm)

Fucking hell, more than one of them then. Guy I described is a frequent flyer on the 2 and does it all the time by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jan 2020 2:06pm)

That's the one. Worked in the co-op/keystore there when I was at uni. Grim place by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jan 2020 2:05pm)

Would pay to see that tbh by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jan 2020 2:16pm)

Rings a bell. Right at the roundabout where you come on/off the expressway at Scotstoun, used to have a sign with big pictures of sonic and Mario on it? by snarf372 (Thu 23rd Jan 2020 12:12pm)

A beautiful sight by snarf372 (Tue 4th Feb 2020 11:18am)

Failing to see the connection between Fritzl, the UDA, homophobia and the railways but alright by snarf372 (Tue 11th Feb 2020 8:09pm)

When I was there (09-13) the elitist posh cunts with fake accents (the types who'd be into shite like this) went to the GU, QM had some too but definitely had a higher percentage of normal people by snarf372 (Wed 12th Feb 2020 4:25pm)

From Yoker, was one of very few with an ordinary Glasgow accent. Pretty sure it actually got stronger because I was determined not to pick up a Glasgow uni accent by snarf372 (Tue 3rd Mar 2020 11:49am)

That's a situation you call an ambulance in, not a taxi. Taxi drivers aren't trained or equipped to deal with situations like that. by snarf372 (Thu 19th Mar 2020 10:28am)

Pound shops are your best bet by snarf372 (Sat 21st Mar 2020 10:42am)

I'm genuinely amazed anyone actually buys anything in there. Used to go into the one in Bishopbriggs to use the post office, would take one look at the prices of the drinks etc and go to the corner shop next door instead. Fuck knows how they're still in business. by snarf372 (Sat 28th Mar 2020 8:43pm)

Meant under normal circumstances, bit different at the moment by snarf372 (Sat 28th Mar 2020 10:29pm)

> My day voice is not my actual voice Glaswegian living in Liverpool here, I know that feeling..have to turn off my accent as much as possible or I just get blank stares by snarf372 (Sun 5th Apr 2020 9:47am)

Also to be found up at Kilbowie (and anywhere the 2 will take her), spits at people occasionally as well if they won't give her change for the bookies by snarf372 (Mon 20th Apr 2020 6:42pm)

Probably safer than when they were still inhabited by snarf372 (Thu 30th Apr 2020 6:39pm)

First place that came to mind for me too, feels like waking through a gears of war level by snarf372 (Thu 30th Apr 2020 6:38pm)

Or is it that you don't care so long as it's not in your back garden and out of sight out of mind. > > We are all neighbours, and we need to learn to support each other. Easy to say shit like this when you aren't the one having to put up with it, what OP is describing sounds horrendous by snarf372 (Sat 2nd May 2020 11:32am)

Didn't say that did I? I'm not an expert in this sort of thing but cunts saying "you should feel bad just put up with it" aren't helping and would change their tune pronto if it was their next door neighbours by snarf372 (Sat 2nd May 2020 11:54am)

Bishopbriggs is a nice place, Springburn/Sighthill etc are holes by snarf372 (Sun 3rd May 2020 4:40pm)

Probably Newton Mearns/Milngavie/parts of Bearsden if you can afford it by snarf372 (Mon 4th May 2020 8:44am)

Delhi Darbar in Bishopbriggs is probably my favourite (technically outside Glasgow but only just) by snarf372 (Mon 4th May 2020 8:48pm)

Not rough per say but there are some bits right next to Drumchapel which aren't as nice as the rest of it by snarf372 (Wed 6th May 2020 10:44pm)

The tiny (legitimately about 4'5) ginger woman who asks people for money and screams abuse/spits at them when they say no. Found anywhere the 2 will take her. by snarf372 (Thu 21st May 2020 6:42pm)

Used to wear a snow white dress in the catty a lot. He's surprisingly normal when you talk to him, just likes mad outfits. by snarf372 (Thu 21st May 2020 6:40pm)

Where'd you work? Used to come into the shop I worked in quite a lot (the coop on Kilbowie road) and hung about outside trying to get people to give her cash for the bookies. Saw her on the 2 all the time, always standing at the front staring at people. by snarf372 (Thu 21st May 2020 6:49pm)

Aye by snarf372 (Thu 21st May 2020 10:09pm)

Don't think so, it's extremely mild if she does by snarf372 (Fri 22nd May 2020 8:02am)

brb, injecting this post into my veins by snarf372 (Fri 22nd May 2020 7:03pm)

Can't quite put my finger on what it is but I get the feeling she'd be the boss from hell by snarf372 (Wed 27th May 2020 6:39pm)

Was called a "Paki" pretty frequently when I was in school. The fact I have zero Pakistani ancestry apparently didn't matter, just that I was slightly different looking (my ancestry is (as far as I know) entirely European but my gran was Sicilian and I inherited her yellowish/olive skin - think Cristiano Ronaldo or Lorenzo Insigne) by snarf372 (Mon 8th Jun 2020 4:49pm)

There's a very blurred line between sectarianism and anti Irish racism a lot of the time in the west of Scotland by snarf372 (Mon 8th Jun 2020 6:12pm)

Definitely Clydebank, they used to film in the co-op at the bus station for it (the warranty sketches) as well by snarf372 (Tue 9th Jun 2020 7:44pm)

Nah, let them march, but legalise driving through the cunts. by snarf372 (Mon 15th Jun 2020 5:53pm)

Ryan Kent talking a swing at Scott Brown is probably the most popular choice. by snarf372 (Mon 15th Jun 2020 6:11pm)

Looks like [prefabs](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefabs_in_the_United_Kingdom) by snarf372 (Wed 17th Jun 2020 7:32pm)

It's also a depressing shithole, if you're happy where you are then stay there by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 1:04pm)

Just off Duntreath avenue before the flyover? If so, it's not the worst area (don't walk along the nolly at night though) but isn't particularly nice either (you're just down the canal from some really shit parts of Whitecrook). Pretty sure it comes under Yoker rather than Knightswood? by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 4:50pm)

Btw if you do move there the San Sui Chinese ~5 min walk away is fucking glorious by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 5:06pm)

Canal by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 5:57pm)

The canal, local nickname I guess? Thought it was a Glasgow wide thing by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 6:01pm)

Best Chinese I've had in the area (kung fu and Ocean pearl on Dumbarton road aren't bad though), it's on Yoker Mill road just next to Peterson park by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 7:12pm)

Aye it's definitely Yoker, right next to Whitecrook and Drumchapel/Blairdardie - not even near Knightswood really. That bit isn't *too* bad (I mean it's Yoker, it's obviously at least a bit shit) if you stay away from the canal/back end of Whitecrook. by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 8:04pm)

Might be, Yoker borders Clydebank by snarf372 (Thu 18th Jun 2020 8:14pm)

If you're with BT have a look and see if any of their Wi-Fi hotspots are available in your house (they'll be Wi-Fi networks with names like BT Openzone, BT wifi, BT wifi with FON etc). You can sign into them with your BT details and use them for free, they're pretty slow but they've helped me out as a backup in the past when my connection is down by snarf372 (Tue 21st Jul 2020 3:41pm)

> In the later 90's my teenage boyfriend got his head kicked in for looking like Michael Mols. Which seemed like quite a tenuous reason for a kicking. I used to get a decent amount of abuse for supposedly looking like him when I was a kid (I don't), nothing like that though thankfully. Did get punched for looking like Georgios Samaras once though. by snarf372 (Thu 13th Aug 2020 2:18pm)

Lived most of my life there. It's a lot better than it used to be but it's still a shithole. Where is the flat? Some bits are nicer than others. by snarf372 (Wed 2nd Sep 2020 3:18pm)

> Not sure what the section between Kelso Street and Clydebank is like If you mean Mill road and the surrounding streets it's actually quite nice. Some massive houses there. by snarf372 (Wed 2nd Sep 2020 4:19pm)

> Genuinely unsure why it has a bad reputation What part do you live in? Yoker has a few nice bits but overall it's a hole. It's improved from what it used to be like but it's still shit. by snarf372 (Wed 2nd Sep 2020 7:29pm)

Yeah that makes a bit more sense, Mill road and surroundings are nice. Million miles from the flats/Kelso/Langy etc even if it isn't that far physically by snarf372 (Thu 3rd Sep 2020 2:22pm)

From a linguistic perspective you may be right (wouldn't know, not a linguist) but probably >99% of Glaswegians would reply with "English" if you asked them what their first language is. I'd imagine very few would say that they can speak Scots as well as English. by snarf372 (Wed 30th Sep 2020 1:12pm)

An obvious drawback is the weather. We don't really get extremes, the weather here probably won't kill you but it's almost always absolutely miserable and grey. by snarf372 (Tue 19th Jan 2021 1:15pm)

I'd recommend avoiding Yoker, lived there most of my life and it's a bit of a shitehole. Only other place I've lived is Bishopbriggs which is nice, quiet and fairly close to town (not sure how affordable it is mind you). Need a bit more detail to really answer though, what are you after and what do you need to be close to/avoid? by snarf372 (Thu 28th Jan 2021 6:37pm)

Enterprise is my favourite of all the Star Trek shows, I'm gutted we didn't get more of it. If you're looking for some quality sci fi check out The Expanse if you haven't already - it's some of the best I've ever seen by snarf372 (Fri 19th Feb 2021 7:24pm)

I enjoyed Picard (it pissed me off that they didn't mention the dominion war though) and the first 2 seasons of discovery but the third is fucking brutal. Neither of them really feel like Star Trek, I look at them the same way as Stargate Universe - they might share the name but are so massively different that they need to be looked at as their own separate thing by snarf372 (Fri 19th Feb 2021 7:22pm)

You'll be fine in Knightswood. I grew up in Yoker right at the river and almost directly under the flight path - while you could hear the planes and the odd one could be pretty loud you get used to it and tune them out after a while.

That'd be my guess as well, two 12 year olds both falling asleep while knowing they're probably going to get a bollocking from their parents for what they've been up to doesn't sound very likely.

Guy looked at us like we had two heads and it was at that point we noticed all the flags and stuff on the walls.
