--> In Glasgow theres a wee independent paper called "The Digger"
its all about naming and shaming local criminals, drug gangs, sex pests etc.
its like vigilante journalism.
Its printed on A5 paper and costs 75p

i found this video which made me chuckle...

UZI GANG BANGS ftw

let me just say: your accents are so damned cute and impossible to understand!

god seriously. we don't even speak the same language! This is a great video, by the way. Glasgow is so different than I ever thought about it being. and please explain to me what "fae" means. Because I read it a bunch of other scottish videos, and it appears to be interchangeable with "from." Also, what is a "ned" ?

haha... the video cracks me up every time i watch it.

"fae" means "from" as does "frae"

a "ned" is a scottish term young hooligan or yob.
the same thing as a "chav" in england.

"it tells you different things about different people and their ker-ymmmes"

"so the more threats that you get??"

"the stronger i get, ya."

I hardly understood anything the guy who had been pointed out as a snitch (and had very few teeth) said. It's the curse of being fae a moonspeak speaking country.

translation:

Noel Gallagher lookalike said: "
whilst i was in prison with Brian,
there was a contract put out on him,
for a half ounce of heroin, or whatever it was they were paying to get Brian either stabbed or slashed, is what they put out on Brian

and i dont think its very fair that any paper should treat anybody that way."

this is a video from my hometown, Greenock:
