View Full Version : Happy Saint Patricks Day

13th March 2003, 04:55 PM
An Irishman, Englishman, and Scotsman go into a pub and each order a pint of Guinness. Just as the bartender hands them over, three flies buzz down and one lands in each of the pints. The Englishman looks disgusted, pushes his pint away and demands another pint. The Scotsman picks out the fly, shrugs, and takes a long swallow. The Irishman reaches in to the glass, pinches the fly between his fingers and shakes him while yelling, "Spit it out, ya bastard! Spit it out!"
**************************************************
Three Irishmen, Paddy, Sean and Tom, were stumbling home from the pub late one night and found themselves on the road which led past the old graveyard. "Come have a look over here," says Paddy, "It's Michael O'Grady's grave, God bless his soul. He lived to the ripe old age of 87." "That's nothing", says Sean, "here's one named Patrick O'Tool, it says here that he was 95 when he died." Just then, Tom yells out, "Good God, here's a fella that got to be 145!" "What was his name?" asks Paddy. Tom stumbles around a bit, awkwardly lights a match to see what else is written on the stone marker, and exclaims, "Miles, from Dublin - 145."
**************************************************
An Irishman who had a little too much to drink is driving home from the city one night and, of course, his car is weaving violently all over the road. A cop pulls him over. "So," says the cop to the driver, "where have ya been?" "Why, I've been to the pub of course," slurs Tom. "Well," says the cop, "it looks like you've had quite a few to drink this evening." "I did all right," Tom says with a smile. "Did you know," says the cop, standing straight and folding his arms across his chest, "that a few intersections back, your wife fell out of your car?" "Oh, thank heavens," sighs Tom. "For a minute there, I thought I'd gone deaf."
**************************************************
Brenda O'Malley is home making dinner, as usual, when Tim Finnegan arrives at her door. "Brenda, may I come in?" he asks. "I've somethin' to tell ya." "Of course you can come in, you're always welcome, Tim. But where's my husband?" "That's what I'm here to be tellin' ya, Brenda. There was an accident down at the Guinness brewery..." "Oh, God no!" cries Brenda. "Please don't tell me..." "I must, Brenda. Your husband Tom is dead and gone. I'm sorry." Finally, she looked up at Tim. "How did it happen, Tim?" "It was terrible, Brenda. He fell into a vat of Guinness Stout and drowned." "Oh my dear Jesus! But you must tell me true, Tim. Did he at least go quickly?" "Well, no Brenda... no. Fact is, he got out three times to pee."
**************************************************
Tom staggers into a Catholic Church, enters a confessional box, sits down but says nothing. The Priest coughs a few times to get his attention but Tom just sits there. Finally, the Priest pounds three times on the wall. Tom then mumbles, "ain't no use a' knockin, there's no paper on this side either."
**************************************************
Mary Clancy goes up to Father O'Grady's after his Sunday morning service, and she's in tears. He says, "So what's bothering you, Mary my dear?" She says, "Oh, Father, I've got terrible news. My husband Tom passed away last night." The priest says, "Oh, Mary, that's terrible. Tell me, did Tom have any last requests?" She says, "That he did, Father..." The priest says, "What did he ask, Mary?" She says, "Tom said, 'Please Mary, put down that **** gun...'"

Mike goes to confession, pressured by his friend Sean to fess up to his adulterous ways. He tells the priest he’s sinned – had sex with a married woman.

Who was it Mike?
I can’t tell you that, father.
Was it Mrs O’Grady?
Ah no father, not her.
Was it the Flaherty woman?
No father.
Surely not Mrs Cusack?
No no father, not Mrs Cusack

This goes on for a while, until Mike leaves and meets Sean who asked how it went

"Ah Sean", says Mike, "the priest didn’t absolve me, but I got some grand leads!"

Shame on you Energy for starting a thread dedicated to a guy who engaged in "ethnic cleansing". You offended our fellow Cover from Ireland. Shame, shame. Very non-PC old boy!

Who dat? Fill me in. It can't be Tom. He posted his own joke. And, I'm part Irish so I can partake in St. Patrick's humor. The town I'm posting from right now has painted the streets green in the Irish section of town. What's with the "ethnic cleansing"? Man, I must be really getting dense. No more green bananas for me.:vfunny: :smokin:

Energy,

Go to the "unavailability" thread where, among other things, Tom said St. Patrick was involved in "ethnic cleansing". Shame on you!:p

I told him to chill out, that people were already getting set for ST. Pats day. As Mike has stated he found fault in my response. Seems he's a Druid and that Druids have snakes tattooed on their arms. With that they can look at St. Pats action as a symbol for ethnic cleansing!!! He reminds me of a guy I knew in the Navy. He was a Jewish Filipino that was raised in Catholic schools. No matter what you'd say he could find some ethnic slur in it. I wonder if Mikes last name is Sharpten (sp?) if so his brother is probably Al!!!!!:biglaugh:

You went and done it, Stew. I had one feeling left and you went and hurt it. Sharpton, as in the Rev. Al? No, we have very little in common. And, I'm not the one who took offense!:(

Randy Stewart
14th March 2003, 03:18 PM
Just thought I'd pick on someone different. Sorry about that last feeling thing though, I was just going off of the "non-PC old boy" comment Mike. Oops, now I noticed I ran the sentences together. I sure screwed that one up. I knew you weren't the one that took offense.

I guess I better go kiss the blarney stone or something, I've got Tom, Steelmaiden and Mike now after me!:vfunny:

Duck and cover, duck and cover!:eek: :ko:

Okay Stew, apology accepted -- you're off the hook. It just so happens I have some "hurt-feelings regenerator juice" gettin' cold and ready for infusion later, so I'll be okay by Monday.:vfunny: Steel and Tom may not be so easy, though!:eek:

Not me, my friend.

A pint or two of Lord Iveagh's restorative (aka Guinness) has brought me to me senses.

I apologise to you and to everybody - even to Mike in the hope that he too will learn the powerful feeling of goodwill to all men that comes from the heartfelt apology ;)

Forget the kissing of the Blarney Stone - its awful unhygienic and the upsidedownness makes the blood run uncomfortably to your head. Stick to the dark brew.

Hey you guys are really messing up the two minds that I am in !!

The Irish half is so placid it would rather share a drink with you than take any offence to mocking my motherland, yet my english half wants to kick the living sh!t out of you, but you arent offending the english (yet) !!!

(Note - all said firmly tongue in cheek :biglaugh: )

Maybe, but the upsidedownness will give a good head rush!!:vfunny:
As the the dark brew; that's my favorite. I even tried a pint of bitters once, couldn't handle that. It had the consistency of maple syrup even when cut with lime juice!!! I knows it's not the same as Guiness, but my choice is Killians Red.

Thank you my friend for the pint-o-grog.
But if I have another drink I might throw up on me dog!!!

Gee, Tom, how could I possibly hold a grudge when you were so kind as to include me as a member of the human race, even if it did almost seem an afterthought! I'm humbled! :bonk: :vfunny:

BTW, I'm sure y'all realize by now that Marc closed the "contemplating war" thread after he used executive privilege to get in the last word. This should make several folks happy. So, we should be back to our normal level of controversy and hostility until the next holiday comes up! ;)

No!!!! You think? :biglaugh: I don't mind saying that I'm one of the happy ones. Nothing we said here mattered and it's going to happen anyway. :agree: :ko: :smokin:

Yeah, I am kind of sorry to see Contemplating War gone, and kind of not, too.

Looks like it would soon have to change to "Committed to War" anyhow.

Let's hope its over quickly.:(

DAILY POLL

Do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day?

Always:
21%
Sometimes:
34%
Never:
45%

Total Voters: 41722

Not a lot of voters in the poll, but I was in the majority, so it must reflect the sane ones in our society. :vfunny: So to my Irish 2nd cousins, Happy St. Patrick's day and I offer up this little prayer for you for the coming year:

may your bleedin piles torment you

and corns adorn your feet

and crabs as big as coconuts sit on your **** and eat

and when you're old and feeble

and a syphilletic wreck

may your spine fall through your A.H.

and break your ****ing neck!:vfunny: :vfunny:
