I'm Irish-American you stupid fuck, as is anyone who now lives in America. My grandparents came from Limmerick and I still have family there. Does that mean anything? No. Because I'm Irish-American now.
Mike I tell it to you straight your NOT fucking Irish...got that? You are not American Irish you are American, your grandparent were Irish and that's it, you pretending to be anything but American is fucking pathetic and lame, you were born in America that makes you American, I'll bet you if your grandparents were from Iraq you couldn't protest more if I called you an Iraqi
It's just because you guys have no real history to speak of an desperately look for something that sets you apart from all the white trash around you.
Go get a shamrock tattoo
Go celebrate Paddy's day
Go pretend to love Ireland
But it will not change the fact that you are as Irish as the Nigerians who move over here to rape the fucking system.
Oh and just to get the facts straight here, that utopia of an American Irish Pub kinda Ireland? It doesn't exist, I have lived in Ireland for the past 12 years and Dublin in particular is the most emigrant overrun dirty knacker invested city there is, its dirty loud and as far from the Ireland I remember 10 years ago as you can imagine, Limerick (also lovingly called Stab city) is even worse.
The Ireland you so desperately celebrate doesn't exist anymore.
