The original post is NOT Scots, please don’t spread misinformation about the language more than internet people already have. Scots writing looks way different than this. The post is just English with some of the words being spelled eye-dialecty.
Among other things, you can tell by all the English words like “standing”, “light”, “thought”, which would be “staun(d)in”, “licht”, and “thocht” in Scots (although “standing” could probably be used too). Reading the Scots Wikipedia page in Scots should make it obvious
“…and I honestly shat myself thinking…”
Also “goth” can be a goth, emo, metal head, or other adjacent subculture… I’m not really sure what the deal with goths in Scotland is.
Did you know that Random Task, the guy who throws the shoe, is in prison probably for life for torture, sexual assault, and murder? If not, here’s an unfun fact!
wtf is shat masel
I gotcha fam, I got this shit
“I was standing next to a goth at a crosswalk and they opened their umbrella and I literally shit myself thinking this person was turning into a bat.”
No cap I think that’s it

English-like, not strictly English. The line is generally pretty blurry in the modern day

Why is that so fucking funny???
No cap on what?
No lie.
Capping as in teasing you with a fib, or commenting on how fat your mama is. Zoomer-Alpha slang.
Oh, well in that case, no cap…
Because my mama ate it all
The bat? I became lost some time ago.
Defs no cap.
Shat myself
Dinnae fash yersel, it’s jist a wee blether.
It’s OP’s friend. Shat Masel is always thinking the most outlandish things.
highlandish things

Living in perpetual rain fog and twilight does that with you
You have to read it with an Irish accent to understand the post.
Scottish works better, no?
Probably, but I can’t do a good enough one in my head.
I just default to Fat Bastard.
Ohh, that worked.
Nice, I helped!

That escalated from accents quickly.
I posted some bullshit before editing myself to include my stupid factoid! …D;
Probably voice recognition. “Shat myself”
Punctuation would be nice too.
people purposely dont use punctuation to show tone
showing tone is pretty much the entire point of punctuation
