Seems everyone here is Irish. Good lord.
I'd say most here are fans then. |

You mean besides not being on our side in World War II? Worse, Ireland is the only nation on earth that transmitted their condolences for Hitler's death. Not a US ally, never have been. They've never been on our side in any war let alone WWII. Plus we can thank American Irish for 50+ years of Kennedys. |

I don't see no Americans. I see trespassers, Irish harps. Do a job for a nickel what a nigger does for a dime and a white man used to get a quarter for. What have they done? Name one thing they've contributed.

That is true. My mothers side is Irish, but she has no idea as to where or how far back. My wife is Irish as well. Her grandparents came to the US very young, they are from Galway. She's been back a few times, I've haven't been yet. My fathers side of the family kept pretty good genealogy records, and we still have a very large "family" there, though there hasn't been contact between the two since my grandparents.

I bought an Irishman co-worker born and raised in Dublin his first Guinness ever. He wanted a Heineken, I thought he said Guinness, since that is what everyone there drinks. He was hesitant when I came back with it, said it was his first one ever, had asked for a Heineken, swore to God, bunch of others confirmed it as true, he never had a Guinness before. I said I would one day tell my grandchildren about it.
True story. |

The best selling beer at the restaurant in the St James Gate brewery is...Bud Light.

Guinness is not that conducive to all night drinking on a regular basis, lighter beers are. And I love Guinness as much as the next guy, and I know they pack fewer calories than you'd think, but lighter beers are much easier to pound all night. Because of that lighter beers are more popular there with the locals. ETA II: Guinness in Ireland tastes better than Guinness here. A pint at St James Gate Gravity Bar is the finest you'll ever drink. |

An Irish guy once punched me in the jaw when I said "why would they name a soap after the Irish............they never use soap?"
He didn't think that was very funny. |

1. They don't shut up about their nationality and how awesome they think it is, which provides competition for any red blooded patriotic American.
2. Potatoes - Nuff Said 3. Irish Whiskey < Scotch Whisky 4. Irish Whiskey < American Whiskey 5. That Accent |

God made whisky so the Irish wouldn't rule the world... View Quote The rest of ya are afraid we will stop drinkin and take over what you all have screwed up. I am Irish, and a union member and I have never voted democrat. Nor do I support any of their idiotic liberal agendas. I don't know any Irish that support the liberal leftist views. |

I was talking to the bartender who was Irish; as in, straight off the boat Irish. I asked him what beer they drink in Ireland; he said..............Budweiser. I asked him about whiskey and he turned me on to what, in my opinion, is the best whiskey I ever drank: Red Breast. Now a buddy of mine, who is in the US on a green card from England, grew up drinking Guinness, said everybody there drinks Guinness, and he still drinks Guinness to this day. |

But, I decided to cut to the chase and sent a mouth swab DNA sample into the National Geographic Genographic Project. All this did was prove what I already knew and I suddenly realized that I had wasted my money. |

Fuckin' theivin', shifty, potato-eatin', drunken, good for nothin' IRISH. A more unpleasant, smelly, belligerent, ill-mannered people God did not see fit place upon the earth, because He only wanted to remind us all of where we could be but for His Grace.
