Happy St. Patricks day

If I did not live in Ireland myself and know the Irish I would not believe this, but it is so true.

1) You will never play professional basketball.
2) You swear very well.
3) At least one of your cousins is a fireman, cop, bar owner, funeral home owner or holds political office. And you have at least one aunt who is a nun or uncle who's a priest.
4) You think you sing very well.
5) You have no idea how to make a long story short!
6) Much of your childhood meals were boiled. Instant potatoes were a mortal sin.
7) You have never hit your head on a ceiling.
8) You spent a good portion of your childhood kneeling in prayer (catholic guilt forever!).
9) You're strangely poetic after a few beers.
10) You are, therefore, poetic a lot.
11) You will be punched for no good reason....
12) Some punches directed at you are from legacies of past generations.
13) Many of your sisters and/or cousins are named Mary, Catherine or Eileen.
14) Someone in your family is very generous. It is more than likely you.
15) You may not know the words, but that doesn't stop you from singing.
16) You can't wait for the other guy to stop talking before you start talking.
17) You're not nearly as funny as you think you are, but what you lack in talent, you make up for in frequency.
18) There wasn't a huge difference between your last wake and your last keg party.
19) You are, or know someone, named Murph. If you don't know Murph then you know Mac. If you don't know Murph or Mac then you know Sully.
20) You are genetically incapable of keeping a secret.
21) You have Irish Alzheimer's...you forget everything, but the grudges!
22) "Irish Stew" is a euphemism for "boiled leftovers."
23) Your skin's ability to tan -- not so much.
24) At this very moment, you have at least two relatives who are not speaking to each other (not fighting, mind you, just not speaking to each other).
25) Childhood remedies for the common cold often included whiskey.
26) There's no leaving a family party without saying goodbye for at least 45 minutes.
