But leprechauns are short enough they won't get their knees dirty...

Me too in a way. I have no Irish blood in me for one and the way it is celebrated here compared to the way it is celebrated in Ireland is a lot different.

Now imagine yourself being a short, round, red-bearded guy with a name like Shaun.
Add in a father that will drop into a touch of brogue when he's angry because that's the way his mother and grandmother talked.

Toss in some childhood horror of being called 'Shaun the leprechaun.'

Forget bah-humbug. I LOATHE this 'holiday.'

(Well....except for corned beef and cabbage. I love that. The rest can go hang.)

Now if we could get you Americans celebrating St David's day.......

Yeah I'm with you, to see the knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers who spend 364 days a year calling the Irish 'thick (as in stupid) spud-grubbing, bog-trotting terrorists' suddenly become so fucking 'Oirish' that it hurts annoys the fuck out of me.
