IRISH AIRLINES....

After being airborne approximately thirty minutes on an outbound evening Air Lingus flight from Dublin, the lead flight attendant nervously made the following painful announcement in her lovely Irish brogue:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm so very sorry, but it appears that there has been a terrible mix-up by our catering service. I don't know how this has happened, but they did not deliver our meals until one minute prior to take-off. We have 103 passengers on board, and, unfortunately, we received only 40 dinner meals. I truly apologize for this mistake and inconvenience."

When passengers' muttering had died down, she continued, "Anyone who is kind enough to give up their meal so that someone else can eat, will receive free, unlimited drinks for the duration of our 4 hour flight."

Her next announcement came about 2 hours later...

"If anyone would like to change their minds, we still have 40 dinners available"

What’s the difference between an Irish wake and an Irish wedding reception?

One less drunk.

I’m Irish.

I’m going to Twitter and Facebook and accusing FR of being a hate site for insulting my “people”. I will also go to DU and I will doxx you when I have the information.

I’m really triggered by this.

(sarcasm,of course——Irish CAN laugh at themselves.)

I had a Rabbi opine to me, in a very serious voice, while admiring the work (really ingenious and beautifully done retrofit of modern plumbing into an old, beat up, shul — saved a fortune and worked well) by three Irish immigrant plumbers that “HaShem invented whiskey to keep the Irish from taking over the world.”

Ever hear about the Irishman who was so drunk when he visited the Vatican that he kissed his wife’s ring and beat the Pope with a coal shovel?

An Irish h0m0sexual couple just moved in down the street from me.

I can never get their names right, I think it's Michael Fitzpatrick & Patrick Fitzmichael.

The Irish slaves were uninsurable. Look it up.

Of what era? The Irish took slaves from Roman & post-Roman Britain (St.Patrick) so they were Irish slaves. (?)

Now if you mean Irish as slaves, the Vikings did find them obstreperous but kept on trying. That is why there are so many beautiful Scandinavian women, the Vikings did not take any of the ugly ...

If you are talking about the Irish who did self-indenture into slavery in the Americas, you might have a point. (grin!)
