St. Patrick's Day T-shirts

[Steve Green]

My Mum's Irish, but I've never celebrated St Patrick's Day.

As for the Welsh.

How about an All-female Judge force with these helmets?http://www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/ladylever/collections/graphics/large/salem_large.jpg">

Loathsome, stereotypical paddywhackery of the highest order, designed to appeal to people whose definition of Irishness extends no further than their local franchised "orish pub", drinking green Guinness once a year and drunkenly singing along to The Pogues.

Well, yeah - that's pretty much exactly what The Emerald Isle story was about (insofar as it was about anything other than Garth Ennis having a laugh).  Still a nice T-shirt, surely?

[WoD]

They'd be unstoppable...there's not many people who would dare to go up against a Welsh Women if she was in full flow!

That barman is serving fecking Harp.  It's a cultural outrage.

[ThryllSeekyr]

I'm alittle surpised that Slaine hasn't been incorporated into the design or is he just the wrong type of Celt.

Like I understand that he and Saint Paddy may not see eye to eye.

Of course the some art work taken from the Swann Children story might have ben very fitting.

[Buddy]

I quite like that.. I might treat myself to one!

And I've NEVER had a green guinness, never even seen one!

[JOE SOAP]

Since when was McKenzie an Irish name?

Nice t-shirt though.

For myself:  no.  And no.

"You never get Welsh ,english or Scottish pubs yet there are irish theme pubs everywhere"

Yes you do. We call them "pubs".

Yes - all those signs telling us that we're 60 miles from Galway, Céad Míle Fáilte over the bar,menus printed in a pseudo celtic script, offering us such "traditional" Orish fayre as fajitas and hamburgers... O'Briens Irish sandwich shops are as bad. I was told that they didn't sell filled soda's as they "weren't irish" but that I could buy a Shambo(tm) which was a  shamrock shaped focaccia. It. Makes. Me. Want. To. Scream.

As for drinking in Irish bars? Yes I do, but only whnen I'm back home in Belfast.

[Trout]

I've seen Scottish-themed (and British-themed) pubs in Canada and they're pretty funny.

Tartan and/or Union Jacks everywhere, and nachos on the menu.

I experienced an English theme pub in Tokyo. It was eerily accurate. From neon Tokyo outside to low timber beams, horse brasses on the walls, a roaring fire and a barmaid you kept calling me "Lurve". The beer was warm pish too. Spot on.
