4. An Irishman thinks it’s perfectly okay to pass wind in front of you 30 times a day. Following the flatulence may come, “you liked that one didn’t you?” You are at least guaranteed a hearty pride-filled laugh during these moments.

5. An Irishman can’t dance. He doesn’t know his left foot from his right foot and therefore provides for a clumsy first dance mate at your wedding reception. And dance lessons prior to your wedding are out of the question. He would be too embarrassed if his mates discovered he took lessons.

6. An Irishman rarely shows emotion. The exceptional occasion is the death of a loved one or the loss of his favorite football team. Aside from that an Irishman keeps his feelings behind lock and key and the issue is rarely up for discussion.
