Happy St Patrick's Day to everyone!


So anyone have plans for today?
Is it celebrated where you live?

Bah!

I plan to wear as much orange as I can today.  <_<

Fair enough. :)
Orange is part of our tricolour too.

Your tricolour, not mine.  <_<

Does St Patrick's Day really bother you?

Parade Day was saturday, aka the day when everyone becomes Irish for a day to exhibit their drunkenness and failure.  I'm hoping for maybe a smaller more civilized day tomorrow as I was stuck working on Parade Day.  I definately wanted to wear an orange shirt under the mandatory green one on Saturday, or failing that a black and tan ensemble just to be a dick.

Hanging out with Irish friends (no plastic Paddies here) drinking fine wine and eating trout. We may drive some snakes out of somewhere in the name of tradition.

Why is that? Would you find it amusing if someone wore a red t-shirt with a sickle and a hammer on it on some Ukrainian national holiday just to spite you?

It's been ages since I had fried or smoked trout. :(

Unfortunately fish costs a fortune these days, esp. in countries not known for bordering fish rich waters.

Yeah it is pretty strange alright. I wonder does he have something against Irish people or maybe he's just being a gobshite.

It isn't celebrated where I live.  But I ate some fruit cake, since my boss is Irish and he (his wife) baked some cake.

I forgot about it.  Don't really like Irish pubs though, so doubt I'll go out.  Would have bought some good beer at the supermarket yesterday if I'd thought of it.

 I live in Dublin, and the secret to a nice St Patrick's day is to stay at home. Which I intend to do  :)

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
