Re: St. Patrick's Day
I'm Irish and right there with you. Probably not by 12, but before the day is over for sure.

Re: St. Patrick's Day
Irish on my mom and dads sides. I'm probably gonna hit some kind of happy hour bar after work. If nothing else it's a good excuse to go out in the middle of the week.

Re: St. Patrick's Day
Man, I am jealous and missing my younger days of going out on this night. Nothing better than some green beer!

Re: St. Patrick's Day
I'm going to refresh this old, old thread.
My great-great-great-grandmother was from Ireland, complete with flaming red hair and sass. So I proudly cling to that tiny bit of Irish blood in me. I don't go out to celebrate but do wear lots of green on St. Paddy's Day.

Re: St. Patrick's Day
By the comments here are we to assume that the term "Drunken Irish" is a redundancy?
It's been said that everyone is Irish on St. Paddy's Day. Most ppl in the U.S. have some connection to Irish. A lot of them came here in the 1840s and maybe passed for English. Somewhere I've read that my Lynn family was originally O'Lynn. But, like most Americans, I am a total mix and Irish is not the part that I identify with.

I'm Finnish and Native American, but my last name is Irish, and I usually wear orange to work on St. Patrick's Day, just to get under the skin of one of the long-timers I work with, who is Irish by birth, and thinks she's Queen-Shit because of that, and that the rest of us don't measure up. (Takes the Irish Pride thing a bit too far. . .)

Oddly enough, my g-g-g-grandma was never in the states. She met my Azorean g-g-g-grandpa, an explorer, in Ireland, married him, then went back to the Azores Island with him.

My wife is of Irish extraction. If we ever win the lottery I'll take her back there.
I may even bring her back home.

Do you call your husband to start your car when it's time to go home?
A ventriloquist is telling Irish jokes in Davy Byrne's pub in Grafton Street, Dublin, when, O'Leary, an irate Irishman stands up shouting, 'You're making out we're all dumb and stupid. I oughtta punch you in the nose.'
'I'm sorry sir, I...........'
'Not you,' says O'Leary, 'I'm talking to that little fella on your knee.'
What's the difference between an Irish wedding and an Irish wake?
One less drunk.
Paddy was tooling along the road one fine day when the local policeman, a friend of his, pulled him over.
"What's wrong, Seamus?" Paddy asked.
"Well didn't ya know, Paddy, that your wife fell out of the car about five miles back?" said Seamus.
"Ah, praise The Almighty!" Paddy replied with relief. "I thought I'd gone deaf!"
An Irishman went to the doctor and was asked to give a urine sample.
The Irishman asked, "What's a urine sample?"
The doctor replied, "Go piss in a bottle."
The Irishman retorted, "Go shit in yer hat"
And the fight was on.
Sister Mary Margaret enters O 'Flynn's liquor shop.
"I'd like to buy a bottle of Irish whiskey", she tells O 'Flynn.
The owner of the store shakes his head and frowns.
"A bottle of Irish whiskey? And you being a nun too."
"Oh no, no," Sister Mary Margaret exclaims. "It's for Father Reilly.
His constipation, you know."
O'Flynn smiles, nods, and puts a bottle into a bag.
Sister Mary Margaret pays, takes the bag and goes on her way.
Later that day, O'Flynn closes shop for the day.
On his way home he passes an alley. There in the alley is Sister Mary Margaret.
She's rip roaring drunk, the empty bottle at her side.
"Sister!" O'Flynn scolds.
"And you said it was for Father Reilly's constipation."
"It is," answers Sister Mary Margaret.
"When he sees me, he's gonna shit!"

Nope. He's usually in bed, asleep at midnight, but did you hear the one about the two gay Irishmen? --William Fitzpatrick, and Patrick Fitzwilliam. . . .????

Re: St. Patrick's Day
An Irish man is sitting a a bar drinking
A flamboyantly gay man comes up to him and asks, "can I give you a blow job?"
The Irishman stands up and punches the gay man.
The bar tender comes over and asks, "Why did you hit that guy?"
The Irish man replied, "He said somethin about me gettin a job."

Re: St. Patrick's Day
Into a Belfast pub comes Paddy Murphy, looking like he'd just been run over by a train. His arm is in a sling, his nose is broken, his
face is cut and bruised and he's walking with a limp.
"What happened to you?" asks Sean, the bartender.
"Jamie O'Conner and me had a fight," says Paddy.
"That little shit, O'Conner," says Sean, "He couldn't do that to you, he must have had something in his hand."
"That he did," says Paddy, "a shovel is what he had, and a terrible lickin' he gave me with it."
"Well," says Sean, "you should have defended yourself, didn't you have something in your hand?"
"That I did," said Paddy. "Mrs. O'Conner's breast, and a thing of beauty it was, but useless in a fight."

Re: St. Patrick's Day
Mrs. Feeney shouted from the kitchen, "Is that you I hear spittin' in the vase on the mantle piece?"
"No," said her husband, "but I'm gettin' closer all the time."
"No," said her husband, "but I'm gettin' closer all the time."
