If Jesus wiz a Weegie

Wee Glaswegian Gospel paraphrases by Paddy Patterson

GLOSSARY
Weegie — somebody fae Glasgow; usually warm-hearted, sharp-tongued, and allergic tae takin themselves too seriously.

Jesus is never the joke.
We usually are.

These pieces are written in Glaswegian voice, staying close tae the shape and tone of the Gospel texts, lettin the humour rise fae misunderstanding, awkwardness, and human misalignment rather than explanation or punchlines.

They’re here as a lighter place tae land — especially after heavier work — and they’re meant tae be read as stories, no sermons.

Start here:

  • If Jesus wiz a Weegie (1): The Wan Loaf

    It’s only then Andrew clocks it. Wan loaf. That’s aw they’ve goat wi them. But they’ve already shoved aff, so there’s no much tae be done aboot it noo.
