Haha I love it. Being raised by scary Irish Catholics and challenging it all frequently, this really cracked me up.  My grandmother has a hefty stash of holy water on supply in her house and believes in banshees and stuff.  Even as a child I thought it was all a bit absurd.  This guy is spot on!

I used to wear an orange shirt and a black arm band every St. Pat’s day. I also had a button that said, “Bring back the snakes—Ireland was better off pagan!”

I used to wear orange on sait patricks day?

Get over it man… the orange order is DEAD, nobody cares about you (or your parades).On the other hand, saint patrick’s day patricks day participants grow every year.

The orange order, is about as dead as that cat I ran over yesterday

I am a scary Irish Catholic.

Long Live Ireland.

Dear Scary Irish Catholic:

It IS curable.  I know.  I was one. Sign me up fr the “Bring back the snakes” campaign.

Sounds like a good Catholic to me.

Nah, Catlicks usually know how to spell.

Michelle - it doesn’t matter who he was, or whether or not (or when) you celebrate, it’s what he did and said that counts, and that is just as valid now as it is all through the year. You’re also relying on the accounts of what he did to be accurate, bear in mind that there were people less well known throughout history equally worthy of celebration, but just didn’t get credit - this was a driving force for patent law, which is a little fairer

I wonder if he was a Parcelmouth
