Luck of the Irish my ass!

It appears to be St. Patrick's day. An annual feast in Ireland that celebrates dear old St. Patrick. Ahhh ... St. Patrick - a man among men. The Catholic ideal.

That in itself is pretty fucking scary ....

A man who is credited for driving snakes out of Ireland. Shame he died so long ago ... there is a certain plane that could have benefited from his superpowers.

AND dude wasn't even fucking Irish. He was Britain-born - Welsh if I'm not mistaken.

So now we remember some Catholic cheesehead's death by drinking green beer, wearing green and acting like twats. "Everyone is Irish on St. Paddy's Day!" No they fucking aren't. Irish people are Irish. Everyone else is a jerk who wants to feel as though they belong.

And why does St. Patrick get all the glory? Why not celebrate Denis, the patron saint of headaches? Or Apollonia, the patron saint of dentists.

It's cries for help I tell you. Cries for help and an exucuse to drink copious amounts of alcohol.

No need for a special day to make liver's weep and brain cells die! No need to drag Patrick and his host of god-fearing cronies into the mix. No need to find an excuse to fill part of your miserable life with the numbing comfort of Guinness.

Now STFU and get on with the dead hookers.
