Kiss Me, I'm Irish.

So who else loves the Irish feel to the new Adoulin expansion?
<total unabashed nerd with no sense of geekshame. Haobaotu?

Team LoveBunny is now team ShamRock, and planning a fun filled week for St. Patrick's Day on Leviathan server. So pull out your green gear, Leviathanites, and get ur Irish cream ready, because its going to be a blast!

Once again, I want to encourage other servers to join in the fun! If u have Gil to burn, and the time to dedicate to spreading some cheer, but don't know how to get ur event off the ground, send me a message and I'll gladly play sounding board. ^^

We're only doing a week this time, because the Team has work and families and pesky RL obstacles that prevent us from throwing a party all year round.

More information on the St. Patty's Day Madness later!~

Until then, watch for our posts or contact me, Quetzacoatl, or Metalraven for any questions.

Love, Luck, and Laughter

PS- We're looking for a couple more volunteers to play leprechaun, too! Send me a message! Crafters, we always appreciate ur generosity!

No-one in Europe, the UK, or you know, Ireland calls it that.

EDIT: I don't think I'm getting my point across clearly. Liam?



Cheers.

YES! I go over this every year on here but no one listens!

It's kind of a different holiday in the US, to be fair.

North Americans screw everything up.

GO EAT YOUR LUCKY CHARMS!

(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

yeah but I think we kinda nailed it on this one, pal

Or not

Don't worry, we don't come to Ireland and celebrate it, so it shouldn't effect you in the slightest. :D

You'd be surprised how many of you do >_>

Since everyone over there is all "omg I'm Irish!!!" (and its 1/25th 200 years ago)

I'm like 4 tenth Irish on my great uncles cousins side.

I'm not your pal, buddy

I'm not your buddy, friend!

I'm not your friend, guy!

sorry we decided to use your solemn national religious holiday as an excuse to get drunk and make out

oh wait no i'm not

I cannot tell you how many times I have to correct people about patty vs Paddy. That http://paddynotpatty.com/ link shall be used a lot in the coming weeks.

Not to mention, we injected some Creole into the mix! Mardis Gras part deux, mes amis!



BOOOOOOOOBS!

We all know you Americans can't hold your liquor lol

Yeah after posting I got up to get some coffee and thought to myself "what kind of fun-hating goober would give the Brazilians ***about Carnivale"


if your experience with Americans drinking is primarily based around foreign exchange students and the like I will allow for this

I mean, the Greeks only ever see the English on holiday and the former think the latter can't drink, which given five seconds thought is patently absurd considering london gets like 7 minutes of sunshine a year

I'm so sorry that I made that mistake. ^^; I was posting last minute after a night of event planning and researching. It kinda irks me that after all of that, I still made that error.
=3 During this event, I would love it if you guys keep me accurate, because I'm going to try and incorporate some Gaelic and Irish fun in honor of the Holiday and the expansion release. I am pretty silly and prone to mistakes, so please help me out and keep an eye out for those. ^^;
Once again, sorry about the Tt->Dd's mistake. ^^ I can assure you, it's not one I'll make again.
<<
I hope.

Theres a joke in there somewhere about titties and double Ds...

just a heads up, you're probably gonna make it worse

^^ you're probably right. But that's what people like you guys are for. ^^
Besides, would it be any fun if I didn't try at all? =O
Ps- if you get offended at this, you're probably not going to like the silly I have planned for the holiday. o.o this is all in good fun. I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes here, but if you guys help me stay accurate, it could turn into a learning experience as well. =3

So, I promise to take all of the corrections and criticisms in stride as long as you guys keep me honest for the rest of the month. ^^ Ty~

Didn't think that would offend anyone, but we get it now, heh >_>;

Actually this is a good opportunity for some honest feed back; is there any kind of cute little thing people in Ireland or other countries give each other for the holiday? All North American's do is buy each other shots << maybe cab fare.
For example- do friends or potential girlfriends send some kind of something to their friends or sweeties?
I was searching ffxi last night all night, and google was very unhelpful and just generalized on the whole thing, so I am working with limited resources. I know I am Irish, somewhere in my family, but I don't have access to lore like that either. ^^ If you guys have any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to chime in!~

Nailed it!

What would I know about girlfriends and all that though D:

*points to avatar*

^^ I suppose you're right again, but what I meant by that, was I don't have any definite Irish relatives I can call up and ask on the subject. =3

Ok, So while we're on the subject, I'm going to post some of the Gaelic phrases I came across online and you guys slap me if I spelled them wrong or the such like. <<

( i dont know how to make the tilde type things on here) ^^;
Pog mo thoin
Slainte
Eirinn go Brach
Seamrog
Ar meisce
An bhufui tu ar meisce fos?
Tabhair pog dom, taim Eireannach.
Go n-ithe an cat thu is go n-ithe an diabhal an cat.

I'm planning on using these as part of the Catch a Leprechaun game. Since we needed some way to make it competitive, I figured it would be determined by who could correctly translate the Gaelic. But more on that later~

=3 It's not going to do me much good to use these phrases if they're incorrectly spelled or the such like. ^^ so let me know if there's anything I need to fix~
