It's that time of year again folks. Does this holiday mean anything too you, if so what will you be doing to celebrate the day?
I myself will be watching the Ireland V Italy rugby game, followed by watching the local parade, then going for drinks with a group of my friends. Green hairspray is also a must!

Happy St. Patricks Day!
I have no Irish heritage at all, nor do I really have the desire to go get smashed out of my gourd tomorrow.
I think I'll just enjoy a quiet evening inside. <3
I'm going to dye my skin green and get mistaken as an alien.
I don't have any irish in my family at all, but that won't stop me from going out and doing something stupid with my drunk friends.
Being irish, I will go out, get smurfing pissed, and sing songs. Badly. Then come back in here and sing the national anthem in this thread with everyone, like I did last year. And this year, i'll also find that picture of me in the silly hat and put it in the album.
I think it is necessary mo chara. :monster:Quote:

If not, I will be drinking green beer and other green alcoholic beverages well into the night.
Yeah, savannah does have a bad ass st. patrick's day party thing goin' on for them. I miss living thirty minutes away from there. Now I live at least a day and a half away.
Green food colouring ftw. At least thats what i'll be putting into my beer. :greenie:Quote:

It means a lot to me, seeing as every St patricks day, Im a year older.
the hileday means that me fellas got to work and i get the pc lol
(SPOILER)but i dont care
I am very Irish so I talk this day up like there is no tomorrow. South Side Irish parade in Chicago was last weekend.
Erin Go Bragh!
I give the day a general thumbs up, but then sit around doing nothing. I am a party monster, somebody just stop the madness.
Copious amounts of Guinness fgj
4 kegs of guiness right from the gate for St Pats...not that import crap, the real stuff they serve there. Its thick enough to float a spoon in. Whats so ironic is that america celebrates with these stupid parades and stuff...nah, none of those around here. Unless you count everyone going home at closing time. Erin go bread and cheese!
>>> That green beer looks tasty..
Theres no better time to be drinking it than at the moment mr. orb. :monster:Quote:

I colored my privates green with washable markers...just because I have no green sweat pants...so I improvised
The funny part is I had a physcial and the doctor laughed and then we had an akward silent moment...which was pretty creepy
I have a little bit of Irish blood in me, but I've never really celebrated St. Patrick's Day. Other than wearing green so I wouldn't get pinched. :p
We're going out to drink tonight, but we'd be doing that anyway.
Ive only ever celebrated St Patricks day once, and that was last year. It was fun, will celebrate it again this year too.
I haven't done anything today, nor am I.
I have nothing to do.
The brother is getting a keg of Heineken to celebrate. I'll watch and make fun of those who partake. :)
I wonder if Darby O'Gill and the Little People will be on Television? The movie is awesome.
Yeah I'm pretty Irish so I'll be getting my drunk on.
i'm greek so i dont get to party :_;
they should make a greek day where we all smash plates and drink while dancing to greek music! OPAAHH! :D
my friends and i are having an all-day keg and an all-night keg. in the underground fort that we built. no joke.
I will be enjoying a relaxing night at home. Unless my friends decide to call me. Besides pinching, though, I don't think we'd be doing anything remotely St. Patty's day oriented. Just the way I like it. I'm glad it's not on a school day this year.
So who else is making Corn Beef?
I'm going out drinkin' to celebrate the end of a tough quarter. I guess being St. Patrick's is an added bonus. Or an excuse.
If you wear green, drink guiness, & listen to songs from Flogging Molly your as good as any Irish lass!Quote:

I'm going to a party tomorrow with friends, though I don't drink much cause of my stomache, but I plan to watch my partially Irish friend get sloshed... and then drive his drunk ass home. xD Its gonna be a great time. :moomba:
ME! Along with cabbage. Except my Mom is making it. >_>Quote:

Haha, my friend's birthday is today.
Sooo, let's do a brief math equation here.
St. Patrick's Day + College-age birthday party = Hmmm... ya think maybe some drink might be involved?
Edit: And yeah, I consider myself Irish. British too, but Irish is more... predominant, I guess. 'cause I always liked it more there. Northern Ireland this is.
Yes it does mean something to me, and not because of the drinking either. My primary school was called St Patrick's School and we were always told that it was a very special day. I guess that just stuck with me. I'm not a religious person but I still feel that this is a pretty special day.
:p :D :rolleyes2 :greenie:
Im part Irish and I just turned 21 last month.
Do the math :D
I have a very small amount of Irish blood, but it's enough of an excuse to drink it up this weekend. That and the fact it's a weekend. In reality, just being a weekend is good enough of an excuse for me.
Work can go screw itself.
Go Guinness!
Bring on the Parade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm in it hahahah
The way people are, I think you're "Irish enough" if your grandad had a pint of Guiness. He didn't even have to like it. :pQuote:

Onto more St Paddys related issues, HAPPY ST PATS ONE AND ALL! (cept the british) AND I WILL SHOOT THE RADIO NEXT TIME I HEAR B*WITCHED.
I also have no head for my drink, as I only took a teeny bit of vodka last night and my head hurts. Hair of the dog, as they say, so, see youse all later.
Aye, but I'm talking about Northern Ireland, which is a different situation to the Free State. Plenty of people there consider themselves both Irish and British. Kinda the same way a lot of people consider themselves both English and British.Quote:

There are plenty of people in Northern Ireland who consider themsleves Northern Irish and British, I don't really see how that's a contradiction in terms. Like MILF said there are people in England, and Scotland for that matter, who see themselves as English/Scottish and British. Forfeiting your nationality because of the past? That sounds very clever.
Anyway, St Patricks day. Just another day in my books I'm afraid.
The Irish cricket team are definitely into the spirit of things today, kicking Pakistan's arse all over Jamaica, I love it.
That is just because you are from the evil empire XDQuote:

1 Oz. Bailey's Irish Cream or such
1 Pint Stout Beer (Guinness I suppose)
Mix the Jameson's and Bailey's together in a shot glass, then drop the mixture into the pint glass. Chug. Do it fast, because the mixture will congeal, but if you are a true Irishman (ie a fast drinker) then you will be treated to a suprisingly tasty -though very rich and rather intoxicating- beverage.
Ireland dumped Pakistan out of the World Cup in one of the most tense and exciting matches I've seen, definitely their day today.
Gladly. And i'm from Northern Ireland. And i've had that section who consider themselves british and irish march past my house screaming about how they will kill me. I am not overly fond of them.Quote:

Now, I'm a little late, but I can still do this...probably.
Sinne Fianna Fáil
Atá faoi gheall ag Éirinn
Buíon dár slua
Thar toinn do ráinig chughainn
Faoi mhóid bheith saor
Sean-tír ár sinsear feasta
Ní fhágfar faoin tiorán ná faoin tráill
Anocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil
Le gean ar Ghaeil chun báis nó saoil
Le gunna scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar
Seo libh canaig Amhrán na bhFiann
And i'll get the picture up soon fellas.
I forgot all about it and so did all my friends and roommates :p
Irish CARBOMB!!111 =-o
St. Patti's usually means making out with my toilet.
Araciel and I went out with some of my friends to a couple of pubs and drank a bunch of beer.
I deffinately kissed my toilet that night.
My bestest friend is very Irish, so I often party with her family. We have corned beef and cabbage and green drinks.
But this year she got married! So yay! I actually was in charge of setting up the reception while the family was at the ceremony (waiting outside the Mormon temple, since they couldn't go in anyway).
And then I went to a party.
I had sex, a Stout, cabbage soup and corned beef, and played Diablo. 'Twas a fine day indeed.
I did the same things I do everyday.
Wouldn't have been a paddies day without. :monster:Quote:

Thanks friends.
lol, my st. patrick's day involved:
Redoing a crap ass computer;
Playing Diablo;
Working;
Playing Diablo;
Watching my friends get ABSOLUTELY smurfed up.
I enjoyed it.
I drank alcohol in the front yard of the colloseum. That Rugby game was in town, but I wasn't so interested in it. Last year I was in Savanah.
Been there...done that. They even reserved the room for me the next party. Ah well, made out alright this time. Least I could still walk with no assistance. :DQuote:
