You’ve no idea how much you all sound like slack jawed wurzels when calling it a chipper.  

Sound like Wurzels.....you don't even want to know what they call stuff in the west country. They're a proper funny breed (I can say that, I live on the Dorset side of the Dorset / Somerset border!)

I'm ashamed to say I used to call it a chipper and allowed myself to be bullied into calling it a chippie when I moved to Glasgow.

All this garbage from Aberdeen are serving up is probably my karma. You lot are just getting caught in the crossfire.

King Rib supper btw for whoever is putting the order in.

Mock chops and king ribs. We just need someone to admit to habitually ordering chip steaks and we've completed the mystery-meat holy trinity.

I sorry but I have to disagree. Teuchters are from anywhere further north of Aberdeen than (and including) Newmachar and further west than Kingswells.

Otherwise, why would the bus to Newmachar, or any bus that isnae a toon bus, be called the teuchy bus?

All I will say is this.  Bar about 5-6 years away in other places I've lived in the highlands since I was 5 and I've never heard a highlander call someone from the north east a Teuchter.

Maybe a teuchter is relative to where you come from? So growing up in Aberdeen made us look at those country yokels as teuchters. If they bide where there are tractors they're teuchters. Maybe?

Maybe we're both right and interpretation has changed by area over time

Can we please get back on topic and end this debate about what a chip shop is called, please?

(It's a chipper).

I grew up in Westhill and we used to call people from Skene teuchters.

It was a four minute drive away and we all went to the same school

The topic of whether Aberdeen will go down, it being the worst thing that has ever happened to us, and possibly happening within days of Hearts winning the league?

I'd rather know your chippy/chipper order to be honest. If you're a pizza crunch supper kind of gadji, that's okay, this is a safe place to share.

Yeah that's fair, I've heard folks from glasgow call people from perth teuchters before.   The only real difference is if you're from the highlands you know there's no argument you're a teuchter

I'm not really a big fan of chippies 2bh though there is a really solid one 2 minutes from my house.  They taste good but I always feel like I've gargled oil after one.  Classically I'm a fish supper kinda guy when I do fwiw.  My personal recommendation for that in Scotland would be the Fochabers chip shop.

Used to hang about with a Northern Irish guy at Uni and he’d confuse the hell out of the staff in whatever Chippie we’d end up in as he called fish n chips a ‘chip supper’. No matter how many times I used to explain that he’d just get a massive portion of chips he insisted that was what it was called. Loony.
