I assume that is an Orange thing. I'm not going to bother looking it up.

I'll just keep trolling with my 26+6=1 thing.

You really are an irish catholic then.  Not only bad at math, but lazy too.

Hmm...  I think I'll try and find an orange shirt and wear it to work on Thursday just to see if anybody notices (my other orange shirt is already packed up).
No one would notice here :lol:

Well, wearing orange on St. Patrick's means you are an asshole or a nationalist. We dont want people making aggressive political statements in work environment.

Wearing one of the colors in the Irish flag on St. Patrick's day makes you an asshole eh?

:unsure: are you being deliberately dense, or are you just unaware?

Orange has a very specific political identification in northern Ireland.

I'm usually on the side of the Irish but I'm also an asshole.

Let's see if I can get away with wearing Orange on thursday.

I suppose you drum beating thugs already know Bushmill's is the Proddy drink, and Jameson's the Papist, right?

Of course.

Anyway, I'm pretty certain me wearing orange here at work would offend nobody.  Hardly anyone would even know the significance.  Cincinnati is full of Catholix, but very few with Irish surnames.

The whole idea behind the Republic of Ireland is the unification of the supporters of William of Orange and the House of Stuart.  Hence the flag.  I am aware of its meaning in Northern Ireland but just because you come from the Orangist side...well it is not that simple.  I am just saying.

Speaking of which, I need to get my orange shirt ironed & ready for Thursday.

A guy who used to work at my office was reprimanded for that once. :lol:

So someone in your office knows a bit about history, hates the catholic church, and is passive aggressive. Why am I not surprised?
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)
