I thought it was Happy Drive the Non Existent Snakes Out of Ireland Day.

St Patrick didn't drive the snakes out. St Patrick invented whiskey. The snakes left on their own because they were tired of getting puked on.

St Patrick invented whiskey

Don't tell the Scottish that.

Please! The Scottish invented whisky. :P

The Scots would admit that whisk(e)y was invented by Irish monks. They'd also happily inform you that they then perfected it.

Personally I think of it as "worship the oppressive cult that destroyed your ancestors' culture" day, but maybe that's just me.

Your ancestors' culture was destroyed by green beer and drunken kissing?

And there's a cult for that?

Haha, very funny, I see what you did there. :P

Try St. Brigid on for size. You'll like her.
