Why does anyone even celebrate or observe St. Patrick’s Day?(aside from being an excuse to booze it up)

It’s just another pointless “Day”. Like Valentine’s Day, MLK Day, President’s Day, Groundhog Day, Columbus Day, New Years Day, ect....ect...ect. I was talking to a guy once that was a member of a labor union. He said they got a paid day off for Columbus Day. I couldn’t help but to laugh at him. lol

The only holidays I observe are Thanksgiving and Independence Day. (I suppose also Christmas, for the kids) I don’t even celebrate my own birthday. After turning 30, I’ve actually tried to forget them as much as I can.
