Limmy is prompting outrage with his Glaswegian glee

LASWEGIAN comedian Brian Limmond, aka Limmy, is keeping himself entertained between shows while on tour: winding up the offence-takers of Twitter with screenshots of a series of fake WhatsApp pranks played on his fictitious parents.
From the absence of punctuation to his use of emojis and the Americanised “mom”, he’s nailed the tropes of the viral screenshot form. They’re expertly crafted, gleefully nasty and have generated a gratifyingly outraged response from social media users who believe they’re real.
