This is the St. Patricks Day Thread. Post all of your Irish whatevers here.

If somebody already started this, go ahead and burst my bubble.

Does the pic have something to do with St. Patrick's?

SPONGEBOB AHHHH KILL IT WITH FIRE.

Anyway yeah I celebrated the day by waking up at 2:30 PM and doing nothing except watch TV and go on the internet and play Brawl.

Oh wait I've been doing that every day for the past couple of weeks.

I was like one of the only people at my school who actually wore green.
And it was somewhat by accident, I just felt like wearing green pants and I already had green plugs in my ears.

Seriously. No one has spirit anymore. I could've pinched so many people.

I'm not even Irish for crying outloud.

Since this is spring break, I'm not in school and am wearing blue. Friday was when we were supposed to shield ourselves with green. I wore a very dark green shirt. That way I wouldn't be all obnoxious-looking (those springy clover antennae, c'mon) and stupid to have "gotten the day wrong" and wouldn't get pinched by obnoxious people. How smooth am I?

...On the subject of "making it an official holiday" which will eventually be brought up, I think taking the day off defeats the purpose and would eliminate the tradition of pinching people. You'd be at home instead of school or work, and so would your friends and colleagues--you're either go have a party at which no one would be caught dead not in green, or not see anyone at all.

I had some clover-shaped sugar cookies. They were pretty good.

Nobody even mentioned its passage, however.

Ah, yes. I woke up at 1:30 when I meant to wake up at 7:00, drove about 2 and a half hours from my girlfriend's house back to campus, went to my one class today where we discussed the ramifications of throwing a fat person in front of a train, and played Rock Band and poker all night. Fun.

Completed a couple school exams, went home, watched "Dilbert" on YouTube for no apparent reason, and came here. It's like St. Patrick's Day never existed.

Oh yeah, and some relative sent a JibJab e-card with my face in it. The one with the leprechaun dancing around. Wanted to strangle the sender.

St. Patricks Day? Forgot all about it. I've been sick lately...

I went outside of my own town yesterday and got drunk in some rundown bar.

Actually, yesterday was not St. Patrick's day. Saints' feasts are not celebrated during holy week.

Kuromatsu · « **Reply #11 on:** March 18, 2008, 11:01:11 AM »

According to the calender, it was. =/

Holy week changes though and the modern calendar definition of St. Patrick's Day doesn't. So it goes by whether you're talking about the feast day or what.

No one gets it? It's Patrick? Y'know, from SpongeBob? Jeez.

Anyway, I celebrated my rich Irish heritage by wearing a green shirt over a green jacket with green pants; my friend wore a Patrick shirt. Next year, I plan to watch the Cloverfield DVD (get it?).
