Actually, None of This Has Anything to Do with St. Patrick’s Day

Why do I have to tell you this every year?

Good try, but this ain’t it

I’m glad you’re celebrating St. Patrick’s day, and that you’re enthusiastic about Irish culture, but actually, none of this has anything to do with the real St. Patrick’s Day. This is all a shallow, modern, Americanized version of the holiday.
