[ARCHIVED THREAD] - A leprechan was just in my front yard

Posted: 3/14/2006 6:28:13 AM EDT

No kidding. TruGreen grass service came to spray and this guy about 4'11-3/4" tall (or short) gets out with messy red hair and a shirt with SEAMUS embroidered on his chest. Then he starts speaking in a thick irish accent talking about how shitty me fooking lawn looks and all, but he's gonna help me. He's running around the yard pulling weeds and grasses saying "this is pollyanna, and this over 'ere is clover, aye, what 'ave we got 'ere? Chives!" I couldn't keep a straight face, Lord help me, I'm bad.

roy d....then I bodyslammed him..."Enough with the weeds, gimme your pot-o-gold, Limey!

Au contraire!
"Fairie" refers to any member of the Family Fairidae, which includes your elves (Sylvus spp.), gnomes(Gnoma spp.), leprechauns (Cryptoeirus spp.), Dryads(Faeru spp) as well as some other genera that I am not very familiar with.

Well said and correct. Leprechauns are also know as "solitary faerie" often seen alone, usually working on projects like shoes. For some odd reason they are quite renowned as cobblers. If you catch one do NOT take yer eyes off of him and ye might be able to get him to take you to his stash. Generally they'll trick you in some way and escape.
