Top o’ the mornin’ to y’all,

Just wanted to let you know today is your lucky day because:

1. If you’re lucky enough to be Irish, you’re lucky enough………and
2. Everyone’s Irish on St Patrick’s Day!

May you live as long as you want and never want as long as you live.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!

Tina,

I know. I’m so excited because, today of all days, my Irishness is upped from ¼ to 1/1. That’s a pretty big increase. Just erases the Heeb right out of me.

To celebrate this yearly occasion, the one day I’m considered saved by the Roman Catholic Church, I get blackout drunk on Irish whiskey. Today is no different. I have in my desk three bottles of Jameson Irish Whiskey. I had intended on drinking them all by myself – one per hour – but because I was reminded that today, of all days, everyone’s Irish (in some genetic anomaly shared by the human race), I’ve decided to share them.

Shots begin in ten minutes. We’ll be playing a drinking game I like to refer to as “The Pogue Mahone.” Essentially, I’ll have several albums by The Pogues playing on repeat. Every time Shane McGowan is indecipherable, we drink.

Slainte,

Do you need help? You’d better watch it, because Ted might come down on you if you keep on going on like that, and what your saying about my job performance is entirely uncalled-for. I have another job, you know, I just put the blog watching thing there as a joke. You do it, you should understand.

Aaron,

While my computer has been confiscated by the authorities, I should have you know that your current state is punishable “up to and including termination” as per Section 6 of the policy manual.

Please avoid any such infractions in the future – or, at the very least, do not make them public.

Regards,

Ted,

I’m not inebriated at work. I do have respect for the office and those around me, you know.

It’s all just been an elaborate joke, and, if you wish, I will partake in a breath test to prove my sobriety.

Aaron,

Glad to hear it. You might want to choose your targets a little more wisely in the future. Tina is going around asking for people who want to be part of an intervention.

HA! JUST KIDDING IM PLASTERED

you pervert

One thought on “Missing The Point: St Patrick’s Day

  1. Why is it the English laugh, the Welsh sing and Irish are left to cry. St Patrick’s day is always tinged with sadness such is the Irish way.

    Bless St Patrick and the bless all the Twelve Irish Apostles (as it appears nobody else will).
