Periodically, I like to reread my favorite Scottish poem: Batman's Aff His Nut by Robert Florence.

Reminds me of my favorite poem.

Earnest Hemmingway could NEVER

What about Frivolous Hemingway?

Kinda wishing now that Irvine Welsh wrote a Batman story

Waynespotting

It’s not about the hero that Gotham wants, it’s about the heroin that Edinburgh needs

Wow. Reminds me of a woman I saw on Twitter (I think?) who would do Scottish words of the day with context and proper pronunciation. She was a delight but I can't remember her name.

You mean @lenniesaurus (not sure if @lenniesaurus.bsky.social is real or not, but hopefully)? Also on Youtube as Miss PunniePennie.

Certainly looks like her! Thanks!

Decades of Batman lore have not explained it better than this poem.

This is so, so good. Cannæ stop riddin it alœd.

scarin the fucking shite oot of them

I like to play poem association and this reminded me of these. HuwMan is in my "to be worked on document". Not sure about the Jamie Oliver bit

I just love this so much

Grief, this is a perfect poem.

I’ve never seen “lit at” written, erm, like that.. Took me a minute!

I read this to my girlfriend in my canadian accent

This is brilliant, though I'm Scottish and can't figure out what lit at means? XD look at?

I'm pretty sure it means 'like that', as I hear folk say this all the time round my parts of Glasgow when they're recounting something they ( or someone they're gossiping about ) said or did. Basically means 'so I said/did...'

ohhhhhhh that makes sense XD I can hear it in my head now

Mad/angry at 😁 I'm Irish, not Scots, but I've heard often enough how various Scots friends are mad lit at something 😆

@scottishchee.bsky.social

If people like this they should definitely check out Burnistoun, the sketch show Rab made with Iain Connell for BBC Scotland - it’s absolute gold. Two Litre Bottle of Ginger is still probably one of the funniest sketches ever written.

Delighted to later discover Rab wrote this. Love his video game stuff.

I need to hear this read in the original Scottish

Wonderful

Stunning

@saxonaudio.bsky.social Here's a challenge.

Magnificent!

this is my new favorite poem!

This is glorious!!!

What in the Sir Walter Scott have I just read? That's sort of badass, ken.

This is magic

Staggering.

@hypnogoria.bsky.social ‘s old natural history of the batman episodes have put me on to the mersey sound poets playing with batman youtu.be/m0GUbAImHuw

Liverpool Scene Batpoemyoutu.be Liverpool Scene, poetry rock band, live TV, February 1969. Adrian Henri changes the words of his iconic poem, in celebration of his favourite football team!

in this it just hits different

This is amazing. Thank you!

Masterpiece.

Charlotte, I had 3 friends independently send me your post from other social networks. Amazing

In my experience a good 50% of "where did this horrible thing come from" in my social media feeds traces back to her. The rest is usually Lowery.

Bless them both and the bounty they bring

Biggest compliment i got was Charlotte describing us collaborateing as one swings a pickax to open a crack to Hell while the other brings in the bulldozer

That was, I believe, me quoting Ken, hilariously enough

IT COMES FULL CIRCLE!

A true masterpiece!

🤣👍
