I know there's a big (originally a hundred or so years ago) Irish population in some cities - New York, Boston etc, but the UK has, for example, very large (originally a few decades ago) Italian populations in places like Bedford and Peterborough, but you don't find the whole country celebrating Francis of Assisi day or whatever. I dunno, don't care really, just think it's a bit strange. My thoughts exactly. I don't really understand why it's such a cultural event in America. You have plenty of holidays to get drunk already.

Guest Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I fucking despise drinking holidays. I am largely irish in genetic heritage, but like (at least) 95% of everyone who celebrates st. patrick's, I do not have a single bit of the actual cultural heritage. If you asked most celebrators who Saint Patrick was, they would probably say that he was a leprechaun. The whole thing is just a huge load of shit, and an excuse for douchebags to act even douchier than they normally are.

I could also state from personal experience that these holidays also involve tons of drunk driving and fighting for no reason. I dunno where everyone lives, but I know I don't drive after midnight on Christmas or Independence Day or Easter or Halloween. Drinkers drink regardless of any stupid shit to do with the Irish.
