  • I received this in my email inbox. Catholics in Ireland are seeking to defend St Patrick's Day as ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ and other anti-Catholic groups have hijacked the day in recent years.

  • I have to laugh at this, only because of a funny anecdote I'll share.

    I was at a St. Patrick's Day Parade with my friend Adam once, and as we were walking down the street we had to stop into a bar on the parade route so that Adam could use the facilities.  I went to the bartender to order a green beer, one for each of us, while I waited for him.  And as I looked around, it suddenly became clear to me that...well...let's just say we weren't in Kansas anymore.  

    When Adam found me I gave him his beer and didn't say anything to him. I just wanted to see how long it would take him to figure it out on his own (because it wasn't all that blatantly obvious, to be honest).

    Finally, he turned to me and said, "this place is great! How come I've never heard of it before?" He still didn't have a clue.

    "Beats me," I responded, barely able to contain myself. Then finally...

    "Hey...did you notice there aren't any women in here?"

    I nearly convulsed, I never laughed so hard in all my life.

    "Yes, yes I did notice that, Adam. Now, why do you suppose that is?"

    Suddenly the look of terror on his face made me wish I'd had a camera on me.

    "Holy cow! We gotta get outta here!"

    I nearly died of laughter on the spot.

    "You don't want to meet 'Steve', then?"

     :cheers: :laugh2:

    He was not amused. I laughed for days.

  • Most defenders of ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs say all they want are marriage rights but clearly they want St. Patrick's Day as well.
