The Worst Things in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire*

The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it

You can tell us more about Aberdeen.

The Worst Things

• All of it. Aberdeen is a shit hole. All people do is shop, drink, shop, maybe eat, shop some more, walk about like robots, moan at the weather even though they've been living here for fifty years and now the weather's crap, but think that Donald Trump's out of town golf course for elite foreigners is the best thing that's ever happened to Aberdeen and will brighten Aberdeen's future
• rainbow taxi is the worst taxi service in scotland. rudest telephone operators and rudest drivers. someone should take away their business license.
• Bruce Millers
• where do i start?.... The bus system, the bus prices, the cost of living in general. The Wealth gap. Boule bashers. music scene (lack of), alcohol and drug problems and casualties. Pretentious arseholes who go out every night of the week and will probably wont make 40. The girls who start off pretty but binge drinking and verenial disease has taken its toll and at age 20 have shagged on average 100 guys/whoores and are fat and spotty. Heroin. Stoner problem. Cocaine+alcohol+fucked up in the head=VIOLENT ABERDONIAN

• the people of Aberdeen are just awfull. Miserable, dour, small c conservative donuts. Even when dead they are a real drag.
• Drubk lassies
• Rainbow Taxis - they think they own the feckin place! Just coz they have over 40,000 hires a day. so what?? what do they want....a feckin driving licence?!
• It's the greyest place on earth. People are, for the most part, subnormal. Nobody cares. Everyone is depressed. Nothing ever happens. Youth unemployment is way too high, highest in UK I read. It's hard to find good weed. There's no good places to eat, there's a real shortage of food places. There aren't many places to buy decent guys' clothes. Nobody believes in anything.
• Neds on a Friday night in McDonalds when your gagging for a McChicken Sandwhich Meal With Coke
• The overpriced houses
• Trying to get the lazy bastards to work once you give them a job. Miserable faces. The bridges that allow me to get into the place.

• the police in aberdeen are terrible you get in trouble for everything.yeah ok so they should stop ppl who are breakin the law but come on you cant paint us all with the same brush!!
• NEDS!!!!
• I would not feed La Bamba Mexican Restaurant's food to my dog. And I hate my dog.
• the council are dicks who wont build any decent skateparks and put skare stoppers on all the best spots.
• POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF!!!!!!!!!!!!
• Scum full of Scum. Rich Minks, Shite Clubs, bars, football team, mullets, fake tans, Plebs think Aberdeen is the "New London" its a depressing hell hole, almost like a horror film where everyone is brainwashed into thinking aberdeen is "mental" and "sound". wait till all the oil money runs out and see the place for the ghost town it really is.
• Bruce Millers
• the council
• i hate haters....... i.e the people who don't appreciate what we have and always want more more more... there are plents pubs and clubs and eating out places in aberdeen yet people put them down, i think aberdeen offers something for everyone! and those who slag the beach are just pathetic, that's what used to be the hub of aberdeen and fair enough the codona family make a fortune but they provide alot of entertainment for my children and i think aberdeen should have alot more!!! places like dundee have a brilliant, park which has mini golf, rowing boats a zoo and a small carnival area as well as bbq area etc, and on the outskirts of glasgow strathclyde park is amazing, i wish aberdeen would have more money spent on children's parks and themed areas than over priced housing!
• A lot of racial and religious intolerance, and a very small-minded mentality. Conform to the latest fashion trends or risk being shouted at on the street or beaten up. Also, everything in the city is grey, and quite be quite spirit-sapping in it's blandness, especially in winter when the streets, the buildings, the sky and even the people are grey.
• Bruce Millers, all the staff stink of PISH!!!!!!!!
• Dave Occurt fae Bridge of Don and all his tinky little ned mates
• Chavs and there shit modified corsas, shit parties and sam murray from oldmachar academy oh and chris Mcombie hes a fuckin scrawny cunt and if i see him hes dead
• The local people are naturally dour probably because of the weather it's never warm it's always just a bit too cool. The town council are a close second they are intent on slowing the wheels of government to glacier pace, nothing but nothing happens quickly. The police and everyone else is too tolerant with litter droppers fag end droppers and graffiti artists. Give the bobbies 3foot long mahogany truncheons with the power to use them.
• That bunch of diskheads that hang out down the beach in their stupid Vauxhall Corsas and Citroen Saxos with plastic bits stuck on. The laughing stock of anyone who actually has a car with any power in it. :)
• The hutcheon st shop is one of the worst shops in aberdeen. It's ran by minks, with lesbian tendencies and the daughter wendy dwarf is ridden with crabs. The whole family are a sight for sore eyes and wendy is a well known spunk bucket hacker. Stay away!!!!!!!! Unless u want to buy poppers of course to deodirise your room - mmmmmmmmmm, lovely!!!!!
• homeless people
• beggars/homeless - i feel sorry those who are genuinely homeless, but the pretenders just piss me off. Moreover, I'd easily give the homeless money but as long as its going to something beneficial, many seem to sit comatose in a corner. Shelter people who stand outside HMV grrrrrrrrr the number 9 bus lack of rock venues
• The worst thing about Aberdeen is the people who live there but are originally from somewhere else. These are the people with an attitude which suggests they think they are somehow superior to the local Aberdonians. As an Aberdonian myself I can say the locals are pretty decent, hard-working, honest and straight-forward folks. The newcomers are dodgy, shifty, suspicious, snobby, pretenscious, ignorant buffoons who think they are something special just because they have a fancy oil-job or some other slightly-above-average income and lower middle-class occupation. I prefer Aberdonians' transparancy to the idiotic, materialistic newcomers who contribute nothing to Aberdeen's culture
• people who walk down justicemill road bleezin shoutin abuse when they are drunk cos you are driving on the road??!?! THinking they own the road cos they are drunk - do you pay road tax??? NO SO F&$%^$% MOVE IT YOU BOOT, The pigs and their speed guns, the folk in the new flats down the beach complaining about boule boys and noise (buy a flat somewhere else!!! we have been comin here for years!!!!)
• Its rare to find an Aberdonian who can smile without sneering. It's rare to find an Aberdonian who can't help licking his lips when you mention money. It's rare to find an Aberdonian who knows what a sense of humour is, without trying to calculate the value of it.
• Where do I start. Having lived there for the first 25 years of my life, i've got to say it's the soulless, grim, and completely without any redeeming features. it's unbelievably small, the bars and pubs are absolute crap. The majority of the girls who go out at the weekend are common, fat and ugly, they have about as much life experience as a dead fish. talking of which, get used to that smell, because it permeates Aberdeen. As does the fucking squaking of seagulls every single morning. There is about 3 decent clothes shops in the whole city. Then you've got the blokes, the worst ones are those who think they are "casuals" (excuse me while i go and piss myself laughing), even though if any of them were in a real fight with someone, they would be off quicker than you could say AFC. Generally, it's just a load of blokes who have homosexual tendencies, but are too scared to admit it, so they go about beating people up to deal with their own anger.
• Smelly lorries pouring sh*t on wellington road and brain dead car drivers
• Union Street at night is awful these days, full of tanked up slappers / wankers puking and fighting. And there's too many beggars
• Went back to Aberdeen, 1st time in six months. Couldn't find a decent eating place on a Sunday night that wasn't burgers, pizzas, more burgers or chips!!! You could get a drink anywhere you wanted to, but they obvisouly don't eat 'real' food in Aberdeen these days. Need to take a leaf out of the Dutch culture!!!!!
• Everything in aberdeen is annoying because thers no wher really individual that breaks the mold
• The neds!
• Very few real pubs about. So many bad areas (Torry, Logie, Northfield, Mastrick, Tillydrone) and so many druggies.
• Aberdeen city council their corrupt, selfserving and arrogant. They don't care about the victims of this town but instead promote themselves as being the best organistation in the country, when in fact there the worst.
• The fact that there is no policing on Union Street at nights(especially Fri & Sat) and they are now just relying on CCTV which has just been proben that they can't always use that as evidence of a crime...great.
• Bully Bashers
• Girl Racer Slappers yeah u know who u r, the dames that drive the pug 106, corsa! SLUTS
• Kincorth.
• its grey, cold and windy. bams are irritating. the unique aberdonian accent.
• neds bams and other assorted mincers.
• Most of the clubs are the same - the only thing that differs is the level of sleaziness you can expect. If you like pop music from the 70's and 80's you will love Aberdeen. If you are a balding, fat old man who sleazes over giggly girlies you'll love the Bex Bar.
• Aberdeens 'alternative scene': the skaters, hippies, goths, and general student types wearing a guise of aloofness. Everyone always talking about what theyre going to do with their lives but never actually going anywhere. If theyre lucky theyll be teachers. Seagull poop.
• bams suck
• This guide regarding the city of aberdeen!!! I have never met so much anally retentive, arse licking shit heads in all my life. Why don't you have a close inspection of your own towns. Regarding this site and its guide to no racist , defamatory comments etc. This site is full of them.
• the trendys
• not enough space
• Aberdeen is spelt wrong. Should be Aberden.
• The huge size of the fuckin taxi queues!!!!!! Especially that one next to the graveyard on Union Street. The taxis are generally shite. U call for one on a sunday afternoon and they're like "sorry, none available for 3 hours" Also the killer mutant seagulls and the way that everything is grey.
• The Boulevard - I'd rather be smacked in the face with a with a big, fat, stinking cod fish in a pair of Kappa bottoms then stick myself in this place.
• NEDS,Dooods,The yahoo facist Junta police force,
• The weather sucks, it's gotta be mentioned. There's also loads of birds about so you've gotta watch you don't get shat on.
• torry + kincorth + bams
• Goddamn seagulls divebombing newly-washed cars. Huge crowds of neds hanging around outside the shops in Bridge of Don - very scary on a Friday night.
• I lived in Aberdeen for a total of 14 years and can honestly state that not one single "indigenious" Aberdonian ever arrived on time for any appointment be it for business or pleasure. Only the outsiders, be they Scots, English or those from adjacent towns could be bothered to be at the agreed location and not later than 7.5 minutes. Aberdonian taxi drivers are the exception to this rule but only because being punctual results in money entering their pockets.
• Greedy avaricous taxi drivers.
• Transport is a nightmare. The bus service is pitiful and the 2 bridges across the river Don are just not enough for the volume of traffic at peak times.
• The people - and the common, disgusting accent of people who're actually from the city - at least those from surrounding areas sound like they have a bit of decency about them and dont sound like such total minks!!
• Sometimes it can be a little too quiet.... Sunday afternoons on Union Street can be so quiet its almost eerie.... the people walk about in their own little world and if they see something they dont agree with or someone in distress they'll just look the other way. I lay on the pavement near the Beach Boulevard for about ten minutes once after having an accident and breaking a leg, plenty cars drove by and just gawped out the window, no-one bothered to stop and see if I was OK....
• Too much old men cruising about in Z3 and other sports cars! Get real Mid Life Crisis alert and nothing more worst than seeing an old codger behind the wheel of a modefied subaru wrx
• WAKING UP IN THE MORNING AND STILL REALISING YOUR IN ABERDEEN.
• Arrogant small minded materialistic pricks
• When purchasing a house one is forced to use a solicitor by law unlike in England. If you make a bid make sure the vendor knows independently; do not necessarily trust your solicitor, no matter how nice they appear at the first meeting.
• I come from the Midlands but had the misfortune to stay in Aberdeen for 1 year to do a post-grad course at the uni. People say the Midlands is shit, but it's not a patch on Aberdeen. Aberdeen is GREY, and the people have an entire chip-shop on their shoulders when it comes to dealing with anyone who is not from their city. They continually moan about Glaswegians and the English, but really they're just jealous and envy the atmosphere and personality that other cities have compared to their own boring non-existance. Walking down Union Street with my Birmingham City top on, a bunch of Dons tossers called me a "Chelsea Wanker" ??? Sums it up really. The women are pretty though - pretty damn ugly that is. All size 18 farmer's daughters, and uptight and frigid to boot. I have vowed never to set foot in this area again as it's just too depressing for words.
• The big-headed bastard of a student woking behind the bar at RSVP in the Academy who likes to steal drinks from customers before they've finished drinking them, who told me how special he was because "I've got sponsorship", and seemed to think he was above all the customers who "drank at weekends to find relief from their working-class lives". Keeping pulling the pints buddy, it's all you're fit for arsehole.
• YOUNG GUYS CRUISING UP THE BEACH IN NOVAS THAT ARE PACKED WITH ABOUT 6 PEOPLE -THinking they rule the place. Hello Novas#????? rust buckets.
• MOANEY CAB DRIVERS THAT DONT SPEAK TO YOU, MORMENS ON UNION TERRACE, AND BON ACCORD CENTRE SECURITY GAURDS MOANEY GITS ESP THE FEMALE ONE
• All the casuals and the tramps on the Castlegate
• The fking airport taxi drivers are the local mafia (they've all got brand new mercedes/volvos which shows how much they earn). there's hardly any buses to the airport, so every 737 that lands disgorges 150 suckers who each have to pay 11 quid to get downtown. why doesn't some bright spark set up a minibus service across the runway to the railway station, where another bright spark could put on frequent trains into the city?
• Soap-dodging weegies,tapping a pound "for a cup o' tea,big man".Disgusting,and very frightening for the frail and elderly. The Oil Capital of Europe.All its done for most of us here is elevate prices to an obscene level.For everything.The cost of living compared to everywhere(bar London,apparently)is frightening. Cold.
• Being remote with a crap Airport (shuts at 10pm for crying out loud). Winter nights that last forever. The small minded perochial (look it up) attitude of the natives and all the minging begging weegie soap dodgers who are always looking for money for a train or bus to get home (or so they say) don't they buy return tickets, it should be compulsary.
• Awful City Council who are so short sighted and insular and REALLY hindering the town. Seem to have done absolutle nothing in preparation for oil runninmg out. Aberdeen now almost a one horse town. The Oil and Gas indusry has made it a proserous as well as an expensive place to stay. Lots of shops and services overpried because they know there is usually pleany of dosh and little competition. Chum of mine went to trader in Great Brechin. He told her that the could double prices for many Aberdeen folks and still get the work. Professional road users (bus, taxi, van, lorry drivers) are amongst the worst I've seen in UK
• Every teenager is an Oasis fan who likes to beat people up, and there's no decent jobs. To add insult to injury, lots of people work in the oil business and go into places where us poor cry into our beer, and walk in with wads of cash and gorgeous women just to annoy us even more.
• THEY HAVEN'T BLOWN UP THE ROAD TO THAT SHITEHOLE PETERHEAD YET! Oh yeah and most people in the Granite Shitty are arseholes who would sell their Grandparents for a drink! The price they also charged in Starbucks was unbelieveable - having lived in many cosmopolitan cities around the world for longer than 2 weeks holiday I can't believe aberdonians have their heads so far up their arses that they expect to make on they are indeed in league with a city such as London! Get real hooers!
• The whores are ugly.
• narrow minded, inbred Aberdonians who speak doric and complain aboot all the fureigners. Would still be a bloody fishing village if oil hadn't kicked off!
• The amount of hard drugs (namely H, scag, brown, smack...blah blah....whatever ya wanna call it) that is prevalent in Abderdeens society. The tossers that think they're jez the men too when you go out at the weekends....seems to be a very high proportion (around 100% up the westend of Abderdeen). Also the mingin bitches that think they're jez sooo beautiful with their stinkin overdone orange faces!!!!! Hmm....have you looked in the mirror recently girls, LOL??
• Too many tossers fighting on a night out. (Saturday night outers)
• The polluted air around the city centre, and toothless drunken Glaswegians asking for money
• Police that stop you for doing nothing except walking home after a heavy session at 5am.
• Bloody rain! and more of the same
• Unless you want to pay a fortune on a taxi, the only way to get from town to the beach at the weekend is to get on an Amadeus bus which is full of shit faced school boys or drunken slappers - its a risky business
• Aberdeen birds wont give up a knee trembler unless you tell them you are a at least an assistant driller .....gold digging cows.
• Seagulls the size of small labradors.
• It's too close to Glasgow and Dundee for its own good.
• Bloody Christians chanting away outside Marks and Sparks. I got arrested for promoting Satanism so how the fuck do they get away with it.
• smack heads everywhere, they're your friends even your fuckin pets apart from the ones that have hopped on the crack bus. Mastrick full of bams looks like Beruit and probaly smells worse
• It isn't really somewhere you want to stay if you're young and have a life. Typical small town with typical small town minds and gossipers. If you stay here you get sucked in and you NEVER LEAVE!!!!!
• Rangers and Celtic fans
• still too small a city , someone always knows a mothers brothers cousins friends ex girlfriends sister , when your trying to do the dirty and bed her.....
• Aberdeen has the reputation of being the most polarised district in Britain with 33% of people living in poverty and 5% living in the top financial bracket! It is incredible that Rubislaw Den North housing the very rich Frank Lefevre is just a stones throw away from Northfield, where the writing on the wall says "Help the Police - Beat Yourself Up". The shape of things to come?
• Pricks, Violent Bouncers, Roller Blading, Ski-ing, Speed garage, Take the high road!
• Grey being the in colour for buildings, the weather, skin colour etc
• Pathetic drivers, bus route and stops planners, inhospitality of the locals The locals have the argest chip on the shoulder of any City(always worried about what others think)
• The wifie bouncers at Amadeus - sour-faced, moody, arrogant cows!
• shit weather
• Teh fucking street entainers. One freak dresses up as a fucking doll, and moves around like a fuckin' robot! Hey man, pass me my shotgun!
• The yobs who populate the town every fourth staurday (payday) and bank holidays
• Repititious names for adjacent streets, roads, gardens etc. which is to help the poor taxi drivers with their damaged memory cells but always causes total confusion. There are two roads named Balmoral Terrace within 4 miles of each other! No originality in the town whatsoever, accept for Whiskey brands perhaps.
• Weather is shit. I cannot dispute this.
• Companies calling themselves "Hi Tech" something or other but are in fact very labour intensive.
• Solicitors who will praise the Scottish System of conveyancing and inform clients that all bids are sealed when in reality - they know the contents to the last penny! Take care.
• weather the rides at codonas fun fair are rubbish
• The WORST thing about Aberdeen besides the nearly constant grim death weather is the mean-spirited, desperate slags in every pub, ready to pick your pocket or roll you in the alley.
• Crap weather.
• Everything is made of granite which can be nice when it is sunny but it hardly ever is!
• Worst thing - clubs shut at 2! But there are chippers and bakers open then!
• Bedlam [crap, students, bollocks lighting].
• Zuu [full of spotty men in suits and office tarts, crap music].
• Mudd Club [undrinkable beer, underage kiddies dressed as goths].
• Franklyns [full of tossers].
• Any club at west end of Union Street [full of shiny orange-faced people]
