The Scottish victimhood mentality and inferiority complex

None of which would prove an Aberdonian to be generous. ;)

Is this where we can wheel out the ancient joke about copper wire being invented after two Aberdonians were fighting over a penny?

I think they are generally for a laugh but as with stereotypes generally, there's usually an element of truth.

Perhaps there is an element of truth to some stereotypes but having them as a default position for encountering people is seldom a good way to proceed - it may well govern the responses you get if you (general you rather than specific you) can't be bothered to actually meet someone and get to know them a bit before judging.
