I am an expat Glaswegian and quite honestly this is how everybody there talks all the time. I mean the sarcasm and of course the accent. Still funny but made me homesick. As an aside, I naturally use sarcasm here in Canada and it does not always go down well. I would go crazy if not for my Brit friends who get were I am coming from. Literally.
I can relate to you! I'm from the north east of England, but living in the Philippines now. The humor is sooo different here.. When I'm sarcastic, people think I'm telling the truth then I end up looking like the daft one. Always outnumbered, but at least my husband gets sarcasm... Kind of... 😆
Well the way things is going with people becoming more and more stupid soon the AI will be smarter without needing to get any improvements... Lot of people is more like NPCs in a computer game and would not pass the Turing test.
But after two steps , they repeat them three times, to make sure you know what was taught. Then the fifth step sounds identical to the second step, but you all keep quiet in case they go over it again three times more.
Alex Lynch That's hilarious, I love the name you gave it! I'm sure my family would force me to attend if such a thing existed. Can you imagine the meetings though? Everyone would be fighting for their chance to speak, no one would be listening to anyone else, they'd all be talking over each other, and the meetings would last for hours and hours!!
Oh, wait, I just realized the group was actually for the families and not the over-talkers, sorry, my mistake. That would be a very different type of meeting, probably not as interesting, but at least they could vent and finally get a word in. The over-talkers are the ones that really need the help, though, to learn to talk less, let others have their turn, and not keep people hostage with their incessant talking. Not that I know anything about that though...
That accent; love it. Takes me back to when I was working in and around Glasgow in the '70s. The Muscular Arms... is it still there, in West Nile St ?So long ago now.
Loved this when it first aired,still brilliant and takes me back to the late 70's & early 80's after leaving school when we were ALL STILL ABLE TO LIVE NORMALLY with PROPER JOKES & REALLY HILARIOUS COMEDY SKETCHES!!,along side "Chewin the Fat"-"Still Game"-"Only an Excuse"-"Rab C Nesbit" etc,I wonder what the so called people of this "MENTAL ERA" think of REAL COMEDY?, I doubt it though,doesn't seem to be much of it left anymore does there?,thanks for video recording!!
I onced read a study that the over-use of sarcasm (which is basically everyone in America now) is directly linked to depression. I find it to be completely exhausting.
Some years ago my GP referred me to a MIND course on dealing with anxiety. At the start of the first session the tutor asked us to introduce ourselves........ you could hear a pin drop.
@@sirdeadlock The point is that upon joining a new group, especially a support group for an intimate problem, most people want to be ignored until they are comfortable enough to speak up. I have never joined such a group but I have always wondered if it is like you see in the movies where the leader of the group immediately says "We have a new member, everyone say hello and let's try to make him talk!" I have severe anxiety so I've put off joining such groups because they make it look as though you would be shoved straight in the deep end with introductions and telling your story. If I was comfortable speaking in front of strangers I wouldn't have anxiety...
One of the best instances of sarcasm was in a comic strip (!!). One guy introduces a newcomer to the crowd by saying that this is So-and-So; he's a master of sarcasm. One of the crowd says, "Oh yeah? Say something sarcastic, then!" So-and-So replies, "Pleased to meet you."
Yeah, that's so funny, Michael! Ha ha. Don't think I've ever heard anything so hilarious! In fact I'm going to spend the whole evening forwarding it to everyone I know!
@@frightbat208 No,just those from Glasgow. Glasgow people always speak as though their sentences are questions . Their voices sort of curl up the way, as though forming a question .
corryjookit: Brilliantly explained, and this from a southerner who gets a nosebleed north of the M4. I’m not being sarcastic - he said holding his head in his hands realising his default RUclips position.
Just watch some of the 'Ray' sketches from 'The Mary Whitehouse Experience'. It's basically the same premise, only done 25 years ago, when it was an original concept, by comics who were at the top of their game.
Ahahahaha that was really, really, really, extremely funny!!! Like side splitting comedy that hurt my ribs! Keep up the GREAT, GREAT Work 👍😉 No....seriously, soooooo funny! Yep.
Yeah, so it's basically Sarcastic Ray from 'The Mary Whitehouse Experience', only in the plural, with Scottish accents. "Oh no, what a personal disaster!“
It was, in the early '90s when Rob Newman came up with the character Ray, a man afflicted with a rare medical condition that gives him a permanently sarcastic tone of voice. There are some of his clips here on RUclips.
When I was off the wagon I found some of the most reliable sources at Narc Anon meetings. Most people don't realize that 95% of AA-type attendees fail. Think how many sources they know. And what happened in NA stayed in NA, or was supposed to anyway. So I would make acquaintance with everyone knowing that we might be trading info down the road.
I’m not surprised at all that this is still up. You know, with Scotland being an enlightened first world country that reeeeeeeally loves freedom of speech and doesn’t arrest people over tweets or convict people of hate crimes for telling jokes that make fun of Nazis by getting their cute pug do a wee salute. Oh yeah, Scotland tooootally isn’t a joke of a country.
Same! And when I actually *am* being sarcasstic, no one can tell (well, people who share my sense of humor can tell but no one in my family shares my sense of humor 😭😭 )!
@@elpanderohabanero2915 There's this thing called typing. You can communicate by that means as well. In fact, you used it. My comment was clearly sarcastic (in tune with the topic) to anyone but the most mentally challenged, so you calling me "dummy" carries a delicious irony.
Blackadder was sarcasm at its best but Ben Elton always gave Atkinson plenty of idiots to eviscerate. Baldrick was an easy target but our man was happy to drop sarcastic asides about everyone from maids to royalty and particularly clergy. Much funnier than Mr Bean.
It's like an AA meeting with everyone doing shots ...
sharon olsen 😂😂😂
Yeah, right... it is a crap group isn't it...
Nooo... D'ya think?
Lmfao It seems like every time u c a show on tv where AA is portrayed, somebody is super drunk.
Commented the same thing almost, before seeing this
This was a really good idea for a sketch

It's not implicit or anything.
Yes, I'm sure they are just attending for the laughs.
nooo really?
Wow, thanks for the enlightenment
Sarcasm detection should be part of the Turing test. Computers can make jokes now, but it will be a looong time before they can understand sarcasm.
Oh I am REALLY looking forward to it....

Congratulations on making it to the end.
I see you have entered the spirit of of the sketch...
They have a place reserved for you!
Nooooooo.
Brilliant comment
Twelve Step group for families of those who won't stop talking: On&On Anon.
But after two steps , they repeat them three times, to make sure you know what was taught. Then the fifth step sounds identical to the second step, but you all keep quiet in case they go over it again three times more.

When I read the title, I knew this would be funny and on top of it, the characters are Scottish. Lol.
Scottish?? never!!!
No, seriously?
Haggis is Scottish
Irn Bru is Scottish
These characters are Scots ! !
@@JontheBerean No, really. I'd never have guessed.

To be fair to Scott I wouldn't be expecting people to be drinking alcohol at a alcoholics anonymous meeting
Brilliant. Lost connection with all my wee keelies 30 yrs gone when the bairns were born. Hearing the voices I miss is like whisky & shortbread.
The old saying goes 'sarcasm is the lowest form of wit'. But personally ihave always found it to be the funniest, so long as it's done well!

You would.

That is really fascinating, you must study lots of interesting subjects.
Isn’t it amusing how in an anonymous group one of the first things they get you to do is introduce yourselves 🤔
lol
Some years ago my GP referred me to a MIND course on dealing with anxiety. At the start of the first session the tutor asked us to introduce ourselves........ you could hear a pin drop.
You can use a fake name or an alias. It's just so the group can tell each other apart.
"That guy needed help." "which guy?" much faster to use a name.

Why is Scott here? If he has difficulty reading sarcasm, how does he use it so frequently that he has to attend a support group?
Somebody needs a book on humour.
@HKZ P i think it's because he's trying to get help instead of wallow in it. XD
