- GalacticRerun, on 03/18/2008, -4/+94"Why is this the one day of the year that so many people feel the need to turn normal things a different color? Rivers aren't turned red during Christmas..."
They are on Futurama. - Ninh, on 03/18/2008, -2/+85Most obvious sign: You're sober.
- Ndiggnation, on 03/18/2008, -4/+57Guiness isn't a "loaf-of-bread" in a glass either, as so many people say. It has fewer calories and carbs than most other beers. It's not dark because it's rich, but from roasting of it's ingredients.
- fkr3, on 03/18/2008, -1/+50The most obvious sign - you're not Irish before St. Patricks Day.....
- inactive, on 03/18/2008, -2/+40have you heard about Irish sun-screen? The pub.
- 2h3px, on 03/18/2008, -11/+487. You're black. Seriously, why are you guys wearing green?
- Darrelc, on 03/18/2008, -2/+31Plus, Officially it's a very dark red, not black.
- Hermiod, on 03/18/2008, -5/+24One more obvious sign - you, like me, aren't celebrating anything and don't know anyone who is.
- jmpeagle, on 03/18/2008, -1/+19that's because it is impossible to color anything black. All food coloring and dyes that appear black are really just really dark reds and greens.
- WiseWeasel, on 03/18/2008, -5/+227: You're NOT one of the drunk, belligerent jerks picking fights with random strangers...
: P - mason55, on 03/18/2008, -1/+18You call it St. Patty's instead of St. Paddy's.
*looks at author of the article and a few Digg commenters* - djdole, on 03/18/2008, -3/+19Q: What's the most obvious sign that you have a sandy vagina on St Patrick's Day?
A: You get upset about other nationalities celebrating the holiday. - hutchy, on 03/18/2008, -2/+187. You call shorten Patrick to "Patty"
- xfirei, on 03/18/2008, -0/+15You don't understand the "silly Catholic/Protestant thing" started as a way to identify sides in "those pesky English wanting to expand their borders". Irish as a whole redoubtably don't hold a hatred for protestants. We do however hate plastic paddies.
- sk11, on 03/18/2008, -3/+18"So it makes TOTAL sense that we celebrate the life of a pious Saint by spending his day drunk off our asses only to follow up with a night spent hurling green puke in the gutters. Right?"
That's probably how st. pat managed to convert them: by getting them dead drunk first. "Who's blood, ***** it, gimme that free glass o' wine!" - inactive, on 03/18/2008, -3/+17I'm Irish and I take fault with that stereotype, after all my penis is 4.5 inches. Anybody want to take a ride on the Celtic express?!
- inactive, on 03/18/2008, -6/+197. You think St. Patrick was actually Irish.
He wasn't. He was English. - Puisapres, on 03/18/2008, -3/+16Sign #7: You saw the "Mobile Leprechaun" in the tree in Alabama.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=nda_OSWeyn8 (trust me...this is 1000 better than any Rick Roll) - Owwmykneecap, on 03/18/2008, -2/+15Never heard of Thin Lizzy then?
Learn classic rock and the come back. - captoftheworld, on 03/18/2008, -1/+14Ok. Im black and my family is mostly Irish.
- inactive, on 03/18/2008, -4/+16You're not an Aussie?
- WiZZLa, on 03/18/2008, -1/+13http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_people_in_Irela ...
- beloitpiper, on 03/18/2008, -0/+12You obviously don't know many Irish people.
- hokie47, on 03/18/2008, -3/+15You go to Bennigan's
- inactive, on 03/18/2008, -4/+16And the English and the Irish are both Anglo-Saxon, therefore he was actually German, but the Germans came from italy so he was actually italian, but the italians came from the middle east so he was actually middle eastern, but the middle easterns came from africa so he was actually african, but the africans evolved from monkeys so he was actually a monkey, but the monkeys evolved from lizards so he was actually a lizard, but the lizards evolved from fish so he was actually a fish, but the fish evolved from coral so he was actually made from coral. Ad infinitum.
- PantherX, on 03/18/2008, -4/+16A smart irishman knows not to drink at the Irish themed bars on St. Patty's... the prices get hiked up and you'll be surrounded by douchebags who only drink on March 17th and December 31st.
Buy some beer and spend it at home... or go to the English Pub. - seanc6610, on 03/18/2008, -0/+11you gotta buy extra stout if you're buying bottles/cans.
- d03boy, on 03/18/2008, -4/+15You're probably not 21 or you lack enough friends
- Owwmykneecap, on 03/18/2008, -1/+11You know you ain't irish if you call it st. patties day...
- andregriffin, on 03/18/2008, -1/+11Just finished off a few pints of Guinness stout. Though I'm not Irish, I will celebrate the fact that they make some damn fine beer. My favorite beer next to Chimay Red.
- swingsetacid, on 03/18/2008, -1/+11Quick, someone tell me if I should be offended because he said that africans came from monkeys?
- inactive, on 03/18/2008, -0/+9I actually am Irish, I was just pretending to be drunk to enforce the stereotype above.
- nvisn, on 03/18/2008, -2/+11Ain't never heard of no Black Irish?
Who do you think invented the McRib, Lucky Charms, huh?
Shamrock Shake? - andregriffin, on 03/18/2008, -1/+10Try lifting weights.
- ByteGuerilla, on 03/18/2008, -1/+9Also, you don't punch the barman in the face, as you're legally allowed to do, if he paints a shamrock in the head of the Guinness.
- aoneal417, on 03/18/2008, -0/+8Shaquille O'Neal
- mattailes, on 03/18/2008, -0/+87. You celebrated it on the 17th this year, instead of the correct date moved up by the church to the 15th
- MLisa, on 03/18/2008, -0/+7Just finished my Corned Beef and Cabbage dinner here in Calif. Having whiskey for dessert.
- linuxpenguin, on 03/18/2008, -3/+107. You make fun of a shirt that says "Pinch Me!" and totally miss the double entendre that's supposed to make the shirt funny (notice where the shamrocks are).
Signs you shouldn't have paid for a domain name:
1. It starts with the acronym "OMG"
2. It's an entire website about LISTS
3. You are dissing people for wearing silly shirts on a day that they intend to get hammered, drink green beer, and do other stupid things (as though they really were hoping to look super professional while inebriated)
4. You have 6 other websites that start with the acronym "OMG" - strkt9, on 03/18/2008, -0/+6Patty is a girl's name and is short for Patricia. Paddy is a man's name and is short for Patrick.
In Ireland it is St. Paddy's Day not St. Patty's Day. - inactive, on 03/18/2008, -5/+11We're allowed ourselves to be Irish in order to celebrate an official drinking holiday.
- ShaunO, on 03/18/2008, -0/+6See, here's the crunch. Patrick is the English spelling. Padraig is the Irish spelling.
- Owwmykneecap, on 03/18/2008, -0/+6Hate them with a passion.
"oh I'm Oirish too..." - ukblacknight, on 03/18/2008, -0/+6He was born in the US, lives in the US and has an American accent. That makes him American in my books.
- bCabulon, on 03/18/2008, -2/+8No, Really?!..
- aukxsona, on 03/18/2008, -1/+7Only people in other countries call us Americans, we call our selves by our ancestors.
- inactive, on 03/18/2008, -3/+9***** man, that's the most obvious sign you're not Irish on ANY day.
- orangekid13, on 03/18/2008, -0/+5what percent of you is retard? if you're irish you should be drinking not doing math...
god invented whiskey so the irish couldn't take over the world - gudnbluts, on 03/18/2008, -0/+5Must be some weird anomoly, or your family is mostly American and think they're Irish. I've been to Ireland a lot, and Guinness is very heavily drunk, as was I.
- shadowkiller137, on 03/18/2008, -0/+5and greenish the rest of them
