Depending on where you live you should be a bit careful at the late hours. You'll see chavs drinking on the street/local park and just wandering around town and if you give them a wrong look or insult them you could be in trouble even if you've done nothing wrong, they never fight on their own.
and they're more likely to approach people who are 'not from around here'/black/white/asian/ginger/northern/southern/pretty much anything.
just stay away from them as best you can and if they do try to start a fight with you just walk away, some of them can be really nasty and it's not worth dealing with them.
Another thing is if you fight back and somehow beat the fuck out of one of them, they'll bring back more people to do the same for you. Bare in mind this is the place you're living in and these people will be looking to kick you in.
I would move to England definitely, Scotland is full of racists and discriminative people who when they hear a different accent will look at you weirdly. If you get threatened by someone in Scotland, take the bastard outside they are all talk up here, everyone I know has never had a fight in their life and have admitted they are all talk as well. In England we get shit done, we have more than 100 troops (No danger from commies), we have many theme parks, cheap booze and fresh fish and chips. Nothing like the shitty fish and chips in Scotland, it's all been frozen for about 3 years before they serve it.
Moving to Scotland is the number 1 regret in my life, I have been put under so much pressure to not sound/act English and to use their words, pretend I am not in love with my country and it's history because if I didn't I would be an outcast and would never be appreciated by any of the people up here.
The second I have the chance to get out of here and live a [b]normal[/b] life the better, sometimes I wish we just slaughtered all of the Scottish when we had the chance because they have had this gigantic chip on their shoulder ever since.
Not trolling or anything but for 13 years of my life I have been treated by shit by the Scottish it is really the worst place to live in the world, I would rather live in PRK than here.
I have said my piece.

Your fault for moving to a town with no decent chippys. There's four in my town, three of which are awesome.

Fuck off. See why we don't like the English? You're a good example of why. Do us all a favour and leave our country. We're better off without you.

Also this, Scottish people are not very subtle when people are being dickheads to us, we will just up and call you a cunt, honestly your argument makes NO SENSE.

Most intelligent Scots won't go to the bother of making a rational argument if their opposition is just being a massive bellend.

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;24032225]That's because everybody hates Americans, but no-one really hates the UK.[/QUOTE]
Now i agree and partake with the casual jokes about America and its inherited hatred by almost every other nation on earth, but to say the UK is free of contempt and dislike is, frankly, stupid. I went to boarding school in Ireland, being half-English, and let me tell you now - im lucky i was half-irish too. Apart from having to deal with the handicap of being in the youngest year, and therefore qualifying for being the beating bags of all older year boys, i bore the brunt of being 'English'. Irregardless of being half-Irish and having an Irish passport, i was still English in their eyes and therefore qualified standing out to my peers and mates from the beatings- i got it bad. You may not know what significance 1916 has with Ireland and its ingrained disdain of England but after being scared shitless for two full years and then finally taking it out on the new, scared shitless younger years in a warped initation sort of way, i scoff at any person that still believes people dont hate the UK.

Really? That is one of your reasons? Not to sound ignorant but suck it up you pussy. It was a disaster, but you're honestly leaving your country because a [i]company[/i] spilled oil and the government couldn't pick it up immediately because they aren't super men. Pick a better reason, such as how we are turning into a socialist country...

Even though I've had a bit to drink, I reckon you can agree with me when I say - looking at this thread will teach you everything about what is wrong with the UK. As in discrimination etc.
[QUOTE=Lenni;24042463]You're saying that you get more value for the same amount of money in the UK, and you claim that the extra value is then "free". That's the same as claiming that because there's a price difference for the same product between Denmark and Germany, I "receive" money when I buy my alcohol in Germany. I mean, if you agree with the second statement, I can do little else than saying "well that's some stupid definitions", but assuming that you don't, there's something really wrong with saying that health care in the UK is "free".
