Who else just straight-up missed St. Patricks Day?
I care nothing about this holiday, but still, it seems like even if one totally pays no attention to it, once is still accosted by people pinching you for not wearing green. This did not happen. Did I stay inside all day? I can't remember.
I think this is the first time any major Fancy Day in America has ever actually straight-up passed me by. I was just sitting here thinking "hmm, I wonder when St. Patricks Day is?" Googled it, and felt somewhat aghast.

That holiday makes me mad, because I'd like to celebrate being Irish but I don't want to hang out with the drunkest of drunks who are drinking to be the drunkest.
Also, I don't think St. Patrick is all that cool. Ireland had a great pantheism goin' on before he got there! Yuk, Christianity.
I was just looking at a bunch of immigration cartoons from the turn of the century and all the Irish are drunk. That's, like, the defining feature marking them as Irish, also plaid waistcoats.
Such a weird stereotype. Surely most cultures are filled with drunks. What about the Russians?? Come on!
Irish people are pretty legit drinkers tho, not totally made up.
Would that be so hard?
