Good one.
The snake, of course, is a Christian symbol of evil / paganism [Genesis 2 & 3].
St. Patrick drove these "evil forms of religious life from Ireland" when he preached the Christian message and the people of Ireland "converted".
Yes. I'm starting to believe that the New Atheists are as bad as the Biblical Fundamentalists regarding language comprehension.

The Irish ate them all, in the years before they got potatoes.
Which introduces a more serious question: what DID the Irish eat before they got potatoes?

I just bring one python. Most of the time it stays in my trousers.
Any nation with politicians and defense attorneys has snakes.

May I make a modest proposal?
Instantly starting laughing out loud the second I read that. Thank you, it has been a while since I have laughed uncontrollably.
St. Paddy's is coming up--time for a bump.

Happy St. Patrick's!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Though here in NYC the bars are closed, so the pseudo-Irish from Jersey can't spend the day pub crawling. Quel dommage.

Classic thread! Well played sir!
And my wife, who has a map of Ireland for a face, will endure the usual day-long "Happy St. Paddy's" and "Éirinn go Brách!" and so on. For the record she's 1/4 Scots, 1/4 Italian, and 1/2 Russian Jew.
Now *I* have Irish blood, and I say fuck 'em. Tempted to wear my orange Syracuse jacket today.
Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!--from beleaguered Manhattan, NY.
