Mar. 14th, 2010 11:13 amHm. Three days until "Let's celebrate a Catholic Saint by getting completely shitfaced and obnoxious," day. Look, people, do me a favor- if you see someone dressed all in green and completely wasted, hold them down and beat them senseless. Why? For one, if they really wanted to be Irish, they should get a feel for what happened historically.
For another, I hear if you hit leprechauns on the head, they turn into gold coins.
Yeah, Irish amateur hour. No, I'm not so sure why I get more pissed off at this crowd than at any other cultural appropriation holiday of the year, but I do. And I'm not even remotely Irish. At least I can fully accept that fact. Because, you know, having 1/112th Irish ancestry TOTALLY entitles you to act like a bollock with no regards for culture, taste, or sense one day per year. So, go enjoy your green beer on Wednesday. Me, I'll enjoy knowing the fact that there's a number of fun solutions that can change the color of beer. And, while they may not require the use of my own urine for a base, it certainly doesn't hurt. So, go ahead! Drink up! You're irish, right?
