Old Irish saying: If you have to bend over anywhere near a catholic priest back into a corner first.. This kind of article promotes the dangerous and stupid idea that Irish people (actually born in Ireland) go on with the kind of crap shitty sayings and top-o-the-mornin' Darby O'Gill banter that it lists.

Check out Kevin Mac Aleer, the Irish comedian from County Tyrone, once described as the man who put the dead back into deadpan. He's got a wickedly paint stripping sense of humour typical of Ulstermen and women. He's an acquired taste, but he sends up stereotypical Irishness to a T.

Geez, Where's the "Curdexty" complaining that she never heard of one of these, and nobody in her "Irish" family ever heard of them either!

These little poems are so clever and inspirational! I am thinking of using them on greeting cards and putting them on plaques to display in my home.
