When Irish Guys Are Dialing

Today, on behalf of Ireland, the Irish, and people who like Guinness, allow me to say:

Sam is gonna be thrilled, I just know it.

So will Pabrick.

And wait'll he hears about his promotion!

I'm not sure if I should salute or cross myself.

Now, there's a stereotype floating around that we Irish like to drink.

I don't know where this comes from.

And frankly, if I were able to see straight or type this without developing motion sickness, I'd be extremely offended. [hic]

Hey, look! A green golf bag! How appropriate!

[head tilt]

Wait, no. That's Scotland. Sorry. I always get Craig Ferguson and Colin Farrell mixed up.

There's also a common misconception that we Irish have nasty tempers. I don't know who started this rumor, but if I ever find out I WILL CUT OFF THEIR BANGERS AND MASH AND FEED THEM TO THE LOCH NESS MONSTER.

[blinking]

That's Scotland again, isn't it?

DANG IT!!

So, in conclusion, this is a terrible four-leaf clover:

That, or this Guinness is making me see triple.

Oh, and also: Be careful when doling out kissing commands today. There's a big difference between telling an attractive stranger, "Kiss me, I'm Irish" and telling just anyone Irish to kiss you:

Don't believe me? Well, consider this: all of these guys are Irish:

"Aye, yore a pritty one, ar'ntcha?"

"Heh aheh hehehe."

"Forget those lucky charms, lass, I've got yore pot o' gold right here!"

Yep, we Irish can be a bit creepy. It's part of our charm.

Rock on, Colin. Rock. On.

Thanks to Stacey T., Liz C., Jodee R., Cristina, Claire P., Emily C., Jen F., Rebecca M., Leslie C., Jenaro P., & Heather H., who are all honorary Irishmen today. So wear those red beards with pride, ladies.

Ok, I might be hallucinating, but on the big green beer stein, was that handle a PRETZEL!? seriously, did they shove a pretzel into the cake as a handle?

Bwahahahahaha!!!!!

As someone who is from Irish (hic) decedents (hic)..wait or is it Scottish (hic)Anyway I'm deeply offended (hic) that you think (hic) that all we do (hic) is drink. Where did you get (hic) your information from? Wikipedia? (hic hic)

LOL!!! J/K Thanks for the laugh, now back to my green beer. Happy Lt. Patrick's Day!

Raise your glass, Wreckies:

Here's to good St. Patrick,
Who through strategy and stealth,
Drove all the snakes from Ireland-
Here's toasting to his health!

But not too many toastings
Less we lose ourselves, and then,
Forget the good St. Patrick
And see all those snakes again!

Love the pretzel as the beer mug handle

At first I thought the orange leprechaun cake was one of the McDonald's Fry Guys. (Whatever happened to them?)

[Craig]

@elissa,

'Anonymice' is the ideal plural of 'anonymous'. I'll try to remember to use it. Of course, it might offend them, but that's hardly news.

[Anonymous]

Are those....silly bands on the first cake?!

[Melinda]

*snicker*

My family has some Irish descent among other nationalities, and some of them lived up to the stereotype.

I laughed even though it made my already pained stomach hurt more.

[Arlene]

Ok why are gingerbread men apparently used for just about every holiday? And they end up being either pervy or covered in poo. Wreckerators must have a hate filled rage with them or something. That or they think that's cute. I fear this bakery.

[Adorably Dead]

Loved the Kiss Me Irish :p

[Queen Julian XIII]

Oh I think Craig would be SO PROUD of the rainbows and the pot and the gold on the gingerbread men!!!

And to all you snarky "he's scottish!" people, his grandmother was Irish and he totally claims her.

I'm not sure if he would claim the hairy little orange guys though...

AWESOME post Jen and Co!

[Shannon]

OK...i'm still laughing from yesterday's viewing of the pot o' gold gingerbread men. HA HA HA HA snort! Man, I love this site!

[Gifted Designs]

BWAHAHAHAHAHA! I love Myth Busters...:D

[COOLWHIP]

Did you see the price of the second cake?

[Blake]

LMAO at the Pot O'Gold!

[Anonymous]

Any one else notice those rainbows had an incorrect color sequence?
Is it an Irish thing to get picky over how you draw a rainbow?...
