Sure, they probably view St. Patrick's Day as an excuse to get drunk and destroy inner-city Dublin the same way we view Good Friday as an excuse to have a house party and buy enough to drink to get Richard Harris slightly merry.

Hey, at least they're honest about the fact that most of them are utterly, utterly twisted. Shout-out to the LadsLadsLadsLads who broke in during the filming of that one segment talking about hash.
