Proposition 3-17, do your part.

I've only had Guinness in the bottle, I'll have to try it at the pub tonight.

I got this cool St. Patrick's shirt on friday that has Guinness and Bushmills with "A match made in Ireland." It wasn't green though, but it has the Guinness logo on it so that should be just as good. No headbutts from the hoodlums tonight!

[Creeps]

I have to work until 4 and then go to class until 8, then be up at 8 for work, so probably not much drinking for me tonight unless I decide to go through tomorrow feeling like garbage

[Kiro]

I shall drink an extra pint for you!

I'm using sick hours tomorrow because I'm not dealing with work while I have a hangover.

ITT people who believe and propagate fake e-mail chains

And TV commercials

[Kiro]

ITT: People who don't drink with friends, can't drink, don't go to pubs, and gave puckered up buttholes.

I don't think anyone really expected this to happen, even if they did get one million signatures it still wouldn't pass.

lurn2havesumfun. And I'm pretty sure there are no Guinness commercials on TV unless it's close to St. Patrick's Day. But I don't watch a lot of TV anyway.

I really don't see why holidays like this can't be passed as national anyways. America is a melting pot of different cultures and backgrounds, so imo, every cultural holiday should be considered a national holiday. Hell, maybe if we had more vacations and time off, we wouldn't go around shooting each other in the faces all the damn time.

All he needed was a couple days off and some booze!

We should totally adopt France's 9 weeks vacation a year thing. TOOOOOOOOOOOTALLY.

You know what fucking annoys me?

Northern Ireland, part of Great Britain, gets a public holiday for St. Patrick's Day.

England, who subjugated the Celts, doesn't get a public holiday for St. George's Day, our patron saint.

I'm going to say it's for a similar reason as why we nationally observe Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday.

This will never pass. Ever.

I'm annoyed that Northern Ireland is still under British control, gtfo Britain. You gave Bejing back to China, you returned official ownership to the countries in the middle east of the land you once owned, could be wrong here but I think they finally gave India back it's own land....why not do the same for Ireland?

More so, to that post though, what is it about that, that annoys you Shen? That England doesn't give it's own people a day off to celebrate their patron saint, but they allow people living in another country to take a day off to celebrate their own saint and heritage? Is this an implication that Patrick is viewed higher than George by some?

I am not too clear as to why people living in Ireland getting a national holiday off, bothers people that live in England that don't get a holiday off for their equivilant in saint. That to me would be like saying people in Canada should get a national day off work because people in America are celebrating Memorial Day, or one of our holidays....that holds relevence to us.

Or better yet, Puerto Rico is a subsidary of the US, we don't rule them....they have their own laws and holidays. Should Americans get the same days off that Puerto Rico does? Not until they officially become a part of the union....but then they would be adapting to our schedule of holidays. I'm honestly curious on the view on this, not trying to start something, just tossing out examples that came to my mind.

It's cool, you get the day after Easter instead.

Here's the thing, we DO rule Northern Ireland. And yes, the thing that bothers me is giving a national holiday to one nation in the union and not another. I don't know if Scotland and Wales get a public holiday for St. Andrew and St. David, but they fucking should.
