Romeo Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Today I have seen 2 cars with stick on clover things and kids in a school playground with green hats that they'd obviously made. St Andrews day passes with hardly a mention. Why do people here feel the need to celebrate this so much, the USA goes fucking apeshit for this nonsense. Do any P&Bers celebrate this?

1320Lichtie Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Maybe people would bother their arse celebrating St Andrews Day if we were a real country and not some shitey region of Britain. I've had the Wolfe Tones and The Dubliners on all day and I'm away home to a fridge full of Guinness. #GBTI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 I once read the Confessions of St Patrick. I was expecting the written equivalent of the Confessions of a Window Cleaner type films from the 70s. Twas a bit of a letdown tbh. There were are a few references to virgins and there is a line about sucking breasts and I perked up a bit, only to discover he was talking about men's breasts. So not very saucy, but slightly kinky. http://www.cin.org/patrick.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom McB Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Plastic paddy central for this p1sh.

williemillersmoustache Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Acht it can be fun for a while but once you hit about 3 o'clock it's just otherwise perfectly fuckable women dressed as leprachauns being sick on themselves and your Irish pals shouting incoherent guff in your ear about fleggs, Tato Crisps and / or the ol' country.

tree house tam Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Go to the Barrowlands most St Patricks days so I will be in the Saracen head or the squirrel or some other paramilitary hang outs. I'm not into all this kiddy on Irish malarkey just going to see a band that play there every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Another year, another thread. To summarise: Potato!! To celebrate this fictional character day, here's a picture of a bored dog in a silly hat. Huzzah! sillyhatdog.jpg How many potatoes does it take to kill and Irishman? None.

Hedgecutter Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Pisses me off when people say "You have to go out on St Paddys" or "It's an excuse to go out". You don't need an excuse to go out, if you want to go out then fucking go out. You especially don't need the excuse of a made up "holiday" to drink a beer you don't even like. Stick your diddlie dee stuff up your arse. Sunday Bloody Sunday. What a great song. It really encapsulates the frustration of a Sunday, doesn't it? You wake up in the morning, you've got to read all the Sunday papers, the kids are running round, you've got to mow the lawn, wash the car, and you just think 'Sunday, bloody Sunday!.
