I'm pretty sure the 1/64th "Irish" in America get pretty offended when you point that out to them when they suddenly remember it on St. Patrick's Day

Apparently there's more to the day than wearing green and drinking heavily.

The Saddest Rhino posted:speaking of "MILLENNIALS!!!" a friend just linked me to the most amazing/tryhard article about how terrible this generation is http://www.phillymag.com/news/2016/01/08/boomers-millennials-workforce/#Ip29IWACltoXGkBz.99 Sorry I am so late to this, but I love to complain about people complaining about millennials. How could her generation have been raised on tales of Oprah Winfrey? Surely you can't be raised on tales of someone overcoming their dire circumstances if they are the same age as you and won't become well known until you are in your twenties. I wonder if she just had to pick someone to try pretend that it wasn't consisted ok to be overtly racist when she was young.

In England, St Patrick's day is bigger than the English equivalent St George's day, just because it's an excuse to drink.

Ireland does pretty well off the stereotype - go to Dublin and it's all tourist stuff based around Guinness, whisky, and music. I wouldn't worry too much. My dad is fully Irish, born over there then moved here, and I can't say I've ever really cared about people celebrating it the way they do and I doubt he does either.

Dr_Amazing posted:I'm sure I could probably work it out, but how much does this even come up? I've been driving for almost 20 years and never had to worry about it. Radials mean that you get a flat tire once a decade if that. It's usually in your driveway from picking up a nail. You used to get them all the time with bias-plys. I haven't had to change a tire on the road for probably close to 20 years. That in mind, one must know how to change a tire. Even though it's rare, it's easy. If you're not in a city, good luck getting someone to help you. I also miss card catalogs. PALS was a good replacement in the '90s, but the current web-based system sucks balls. Too much distraction. I can find books on Amazon, but can't find them on my library's ridiculous website.

Use WorldCat or Google Books to find the ISBN, Dewey or LoC number. Put that into your library's lovely search engine. Walla.

I'm a big chunk Irish, descended from literal Ellis Island orphans who had "Race: Irish" on their birth certificates, and it drives me loving crazy that "Alcohol Abuse + Cheap Plastic Bullshit = Irish Culture." I always go jogging on St. Pats instead.

Lottery of Babylon posted:Oh, my! It’s a GenXer! Nary a mention here, though, of this overlooked generation save an offhand attribution to some Xer’s “tart” tweet that, to our boomer author’s delight, slams a millennial. So what are we, do we have a name. I've heard the term Generation i - thrown around for obvious reasons.

Some friends convinced me to go to Ireland for a few days while we were studying in London. They wanted to go to Dublin first, which I thought was odd, but I figured we could see the Book of Kells and things like that. Nope. Their big ideas were the Guiness factory, the Jameson factory, and river dancers at a hole in the wall "dinner and a show" place. I wanted to slap the poo poo out of all of them.

Question Mark Mound posted:Not saying at your friends aren't touristy dipshits for everything else, but going to the capital city of a country first isn't really that odd. There just seemed like a lot more cities with a lot going on. Dublin came off as tourist central for the country. There were countless numbers of hostels filled with drunk college students from around the world stumbling back from yet another pub crawl.

Is there some sort of term for that? Like a posts-to-Hitler/WW2 quotient? I feel like there is but I forgot what, and if there isn't there should be.

If you lose a war that you bear the biggest share of guilt for starting, it's not the enemy's incompetence you should be talking about.

To be fair, the countries he is calling incompetent are the Austro-Hungarians and the Ottomans, not the Allies. He actually is correct in that losing WWI (which was in part due to Germany's allies being pretty useless) and having to sign the Treaty of Versailles ruined Germany and created a ton of anger and resentment towards the rest of Europe over the next couple decades, which the Nazis exploited to take power.
