My sister's husband is a Scot. His accent is particularly hilarious, as his parents are from Hong Kong.

Yes,  he's seen the Starburst commercial. He lol'd.

A Hong Kong Scotsman? That's... a goldmine right there :P.


Amazingly, I understood more from watching the conversation than from their explanation.

As a western Scot, I found I understood most of the conversation, but the explanation was pretty funny.
