    What's funny is Limmy's said that when he feels lonely or depressed he'll get on a bus or train and just go visit some random little town he's never been to before. So this is semi-autobiographical.

      Yoker is one of those places that kids in Glasgow grew up hearing about or seeing on a rail map or something.
      It's not until someone's grown up that they can decide for themselves on whether to seek these places out or not?
      There's nothing there worth talking about and you could pass through it on a bus without realising that you've passed through it (or by it).
      Truth of the matter is that nobody has any business going to Yoker unless someone lives or works there 😂😂.

I grew up in big cities on the US west coast and it's definitely the way there.

  • @瑠ちゃん
    @瑠ちゃん 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2209

    I typed it fast, I have more than likely made a couple of mistakes but here is a transcription:
    Fucking, heading into the bru(unemployment office). I went to get my giro (unemployment check) and I passed a couple of busses on the side of the road. Everybody's pilling out of the front one, and going into the one behind. The Old folk were like "This is ridiculous, it never used to be like this with the corporation busses".
    I was like, I see. They've got themselves a breakdown.
    I went to see where they were all heading: "Yoker". And I just pissed myself laughing. "haaaa". Because Yoker is one of those places I only know from the front of the bus, never been there. Don't know what it's like there, just that it's some pure like mad fabled land that sounds like a pure mad egg yolk.
    So I was watching everyone getting on, trying to show their tickets to the driver, but he wasn't having it. He was just waving them on like that. "Like I know where yous came from I can see the bus - what do you think I am, daft(stupid)". And a wee(little) voice man, he says "Dee Dee, I know you've got to get your giro but the brew's always going to be there - this on the other hand is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Go for it". So I just went like that "Fuck it" and I joined the queue.
    The second I do it, the driver starts checking people's tickets. I was like "Oh just forget it" but I just got pure caught up in the slipstream building towards the moment of truth at 100 mile per hour. Heart pounding. Pulse racing.
    (Dee Dee, to driver) "What it is, is-"
    (Driver) "On you go mate"
    (Dee Dee) "Cheers (Thank you)"
    I did it.
    So there I was, birds eye view. Whizzing by the brew. Ta Ta(Goodbye) giro, maybe some other day eh. Because I'm on the bus - to Yoker. I couldn't believe what I was hearing in my head man. Seriously, this was actually happening. But then I thought; hold on - don't get too excited. There could be someone looking at you at the back right now thinking "Here, who is he, he's not from Yoker. He's got no business on this bus - get his head kicked man". I turned around to see if anyone was looking. Nobody. Got away with it. Just pure got away with the lot of it. So I loosened up and started chatting with folk to get a wee bit of local knowledge before I get there.
    (Dee Dee, to woman) "So is this bus for Yoker?"
    (Woman) "Aye (yes)"
    (Dee Dee) "I've just moved here, is it any good?"
    (Woman) "Aye, it's a lovely place - I've lived here all my life. Yoker born and bred."
    (Dee Dee) "So you've never once wondered what Yoker's like?"
    (Woman gives confused look)
    (Dee Dee) "Mind boggling"
    Half an hour later I started seeing the signs. Yoker news agents. Yoker post office. Yoker F.C (football club). Yoker everything! They even had a barber that rhymed with Yoker: "Hair by Les Porter". What are the chances of that?
    (Dee Dee, to woman) "Here, what's to bet his name used to be Smith or something and he changed it to fit in"
    (Woman, confused) "What?"
    So the bus gets to the terminus, everybody starts piling off. I hit the driver with my charms, "Driver, when do you leave?".
    "Five minutes"
    "I conked out (fell asleep) and missed my stop, any chance you could print me out a ticket so I can nip out for a fag (cigarette)" (Driver prints out ticket) "Cheers".
    I put my first step onto Yoker soil. I was in Yoker, I thought this day would never come. Is it really this easy? Is it really this easy to get the things you want in life? You just need to hold out for it. All of a sudden I just had the urge to go "Right here, I'm not from Yoker I've got no business being here". I was like, calm it Dee Dee, that's no laughing matter - they'll tear you shreds. Now you've got 5 minutes, where do you want to go? What do you want to do - in Yoker?
    I knew exactly what. I had to, I had to find out. I couldn't leave without finding out what this is all about. The bus was a million miles away. I thought "Dee Dee you truly are on the outer reaches man. Middle of nowhere". And I went into the great unknown with a fucking ding. (Ding). To ask the one big question on everybody's lips...
    "Les Porter"
    "Aye?"
    "Has your name always rhymed with Yoker or did it used to be like Smith or something? Or..-?"
    And then I thought: Dee Dee, you've just blown your cover - big time. What the fuck are you playing at man. Go!, Go!
    I got my head out before they started chucking (throwing) their scissors at me like ninja stars. Before big Les scalped me and stuck my head in the water. Ten seconds to get that bus man. That's your lifeline. What does it do? it starts moving, I was like "no man". Felt like giving up. "I'm not from Yoker I have no business being in Yoker". Let them finish me off like a pack of mad wolves. But I just kept running for my life like I had Leatherface on my tail. I get to the bus but he won't let me in. I was like set-up, set-up. Them that were on that front bus - actors, the lot of them were actors. The door opens and I walk upstairs. Right under the seat. And I don't dare poke my head out for the next half hour. In case they were behind on a minibus, gasping to feast on me like a shower of mad zombie pirates. I pick my moment: up the road, up the stairs, in the house. Lock. Lock. Lock.
    Scary man, scary. But the best day of my life.

    This reminded me of a weird experience I had. When I was growing up me and my mother used to catch a bus home that carried on after our stop on to a place called Gillow Heath. There was something about the name that always intrigued me.
    50 years later I had attended to some business in the area and found that I was actually within walking distance of Gillow Heath. So I got Google maps up on my phone and set off. It turned out to be a very ordinary suburb on the edge of farmland and countryside type stuff. Didn't see anyone about and was just having a bit of a wander around.
    Suddenly I got an overwhelming sense of danger, a deep, primal, dread that really unnerved me. There was nothing but bungalows and bungalowish paraphernalia there, but I just had to get away as quickly as I could. I've never felt anything like it before and I've never been back.
    Gillow Heath must be my Yoker.

    My cousin shared the same flat. I remember him because my cousin hates him still because after we all moved out the landlord kept my cousins deposit. It turned out the electric meter had been emptied, all the 50p coins stolen from it.
    My cousin was raging about it when he told me, he still rages about it every now and again.

    4:49 [[And then I thought, “Dee Dee, you’ve just blown your cover. Big time. ‘Fuck you playing at, man? Go. Go!” Got out of there before they started chucking their scissors at us like Ninja stars. Before Big Les scalped us and stuck my head on the wall. Ten seconds to get to that bus man, that’s your lifelife! What does it start doing? It starts moving. I was like that, “No, man!” I felt like giving up. “Here, I’m not from Yoker, I’ve got no business being in Yoker”. Let them finish me off like a pack of mad wolves. But I just kept running for my life like I had Leatherface on my tail. I get to the bus but he wouldn’t let us in. I was like that, “Set up! ‘Whole thing’s a set up. Them that were on that front bus? Actors. Actors! ‘Lot of them, actors.” Door opens and I bolt upstairs. Right under the seat. Didn’t dare poke my head up for the next half hour in case they were going by in a minibus. Gasping to feast on me like a shower of mad zombie pirates.
    Picked a moment. Up the road. Up the stairs. In the house. Lock. Lock. Lock. Scary, dude. Scary."Ten seconds to get to that bus, man, that’s your lifeline. What does it start doing? Starts moving. I was like that “Naw, man”. Felt like giving up."
    "Gets to the bus but he wouldn’t let me in. I was like that, set up, whole thing’s a set up."

    This is stunningly relatable, me in my late 20s, unemployed and measuring my days out in hash cookies, stoned hi-jinks alternating with deep paranoia - and very very funny. "Dee Dee, you've blown your cover"...laugh till you cry funny.
    I've just discovered Limmy, and must have watched every Limmy Show clip on youtube at least 4 or 5, in some cases probably more than 10 times in the last few days. The amount of detail! ...you can't get everything in one go. Best comedy actor I've ever seen, most varied writer, half a dozen all-time great characters. Apparently never shown outside of Scotland - the BBC are dicks, pure and simple. What chance do we have as a united land when our best comedian is hidden from the rest of us by those idiots? I'm emigrating to Scotland.
    Limmy has so many different gears, he makes most comedians look like the one or two trick ponies they are. Only Chris Morris/Blue Jam inhabits vaguely similar terrain, but I've never related to any of those characters...Limmy can be equally as dark and twisted, but there's everyday humanity there too, and he's just funnier. When Limmy makes me laugh, I don't feel like a part of me has just died, as I do with Chris Morris stuff. Fuck!

      Most of Limmy's stuff is about taking mundane everyday things and then just adding a twist to them to take them in a whole other direction. Most of it is extremely relatable which is what keeps you coming back. He really hits the nail on the head about things like awkward social situations, angst, depression, silly daydreams, boredom and cynicism. A lot of things probably most of us deal with. Like, take for example the sketch where he puts the paper light shade on his head. I'm going to bet a good few of us have felt that impulse, and we don't even know why. But then Limmy takes that idea and goes over the top with it and it becomes a dark obsession. Or what's your 'hing? Who doesn't have some odd little hobby or thing they like to do that they're keeping secret from everyone? Limmy's got some brilliant observational skills to notice this stuff in himself in others and make it into hilarious sketch form that also makes you think a bit.

    Yoker (Scottish Gaelic: An Eochair) is a district of Glasgow, Scotland, on the northern bank of the Clyde east of Clydebank, 5 miles (8 kilometres) west of the city centre. From the fourteenth century, a ferry has linked Yoker with Renfrew on the south bank. Although shipbuilding has declined, the nearby Yarrows shipyard, now owned by BAE Systems, is still in operation.
