If you wear green, drink guiness, & listen to songs from Flogging Molly your as good as any Irish lass!Originally Posted by Agrias
Provided you can hold your drink.
In many eyes thats all it is, one big excuse too go drinking all day.
Not that people have any problem with that here.
Str8 Pimpin'
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.
ME! Along with cabbage. Except my Mom is making it. >_>
Some idiot today in school said "You have to wear IRISH green for people to not pinch you!" I wanted to punch him in the face. Hard.
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.
:rolleyes2
Im part Irish and I just turned 21 last month.
Do the math
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!
:mario::luigi:
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.
The way I see it, calling yourself British and Irish is contradiction in terms, due to the usual stuff about invasion and wars and stuff. Thats the reason i've officially forfeited my British nationality, so i'm pure irish. Still cant speak the language for, mind.
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.
The last words of Oscar Wilde, to the wallpaper in his room - "One of us has to go"
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.The way I see it, calling yourself British and Irish is contradiction in terms, due to the usual stuff about invasion and wars and stuff.

Grow up and join the rest of us in the 21st century. The wars are over now. Or you can continue to taint everyone's day by being a parochial bigot with a grudge.
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 XD
