How To Tell Scrooge McDuck's A Glaswegian
Bill Corbett, of the hilarious Rifftrax team, posted a while back on his Twitter page a rather interesting link. Supposedly Scrooge McDuck, of Duck Tales fame, is from Glasgow. So here's a guide to how you can tell that Scrooge McDuck is a Glaswegian:
There was a banned episode of Duck Tales where McDuck stabbed a guy for "looking at him a bit funny"
He does a flawless Rab C. Nesbitt impersonation when he's drunk
His liver's flammable
He regularly hangs out with that other lovable animated racial stereotype Groundskeeper Willy.
He clearly doesn't have any teeth
If the opening credits to Duck Tales are to be believed he swims in his money (00:23):
Anything to avoid a bath, eh?
He's got a lot of kids hanging about his house that aren't his. Probably fiddling the benefits again.
He doesn't wear any underwear.
Like all successful Scots he buggered off abroad (unless Duckburg is just outside Clachnacuddin)
He's a racist. Okay he doesn't say it out loud but all of his friends are white.
See it's obvious when someone points it out to you!

Just a quick reminder ahead of the imminent arrival of episode 5 of Big Red's Fun Bus that you can hear the first four episodes on this very site. You don't need to trawl through all the guff, sorry, momentous comedic witterings, oh no.
Instead of looking for all the posts labelled "the show" you can check out all available episodes at any time thanks to the Podbean Player. There's one on the sidebar and another at the bottom of the page (plus there's another on the Big Red's Fun Bus My Space page. Bebo won't allow it to be embedded at the moment so other arrangements are being made to post the show on there for the members of that group if they're too lazy to go elsewhere!).
If you still don't know what is being referred to here it is:
Listen away!

Episode 5 In The Works
Episode 5 of Big Red's Fun Bus has been a long time in the making.
Actually that's a lie because I've just started making it. I'll try and make sure it doesn't become a long time in the making as of now though.
Keep your eyes peeled for the next episode of Paisley's Premier Pile of Poo sketch show (not a tag that I think will catch on!) coming soon.

It’s the worst disease to afflict mankind since the Millennium Bug and SARS teamed up to become an almighty force for evil. That’s right, Swine Flu. Scourge of all that is holy.
That or another Avian Flu.
Anyhoo that means an impromptu Swine Flu special of Big Red’s Fun Bus written and recorded in one day.Download this episode (right click and save)
