St. Patrick's day is an excellent fucking excuse to get hammered and act like morons. Also a great reason to eat corned beef and cabbage, drink Irish whiskey and Guinness, listen to the Dubliners and watch Waking Ned Devine. Which, in my mind, makes it a pretty fucking grand day. You just need to avoid all the assholes who think "green beer" is the makings of a good time.

A holiday for alcoholics. The one day of the year you can justify being an alcoholic.

Every holiday is a holiday for alcoholics.

Cinco de Mayo = National Margarita and Corona Day
Fourth of July = Bud Light Lime CranBrrrRitas for AMERICA Day
Thanksgiving = Three Gallons of Carlo Rossi and a Lot of Regrets Day
Christmas = Everything Left on the Liquor Shelf Ends Up in the Egg Nog Day
New Year's = Slamming Bottles of Cristalino and Pretending It's the Real Shit Day
Valentine's = Whatever is Available to Mask my Crippling Depression Over my Continued Inability to Get Laid Day

I mean, honestly, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Veteran's Day, Arbor Day, Columbus Day, Groundhog Day... There's no holiday that doesn't lend itself to drinking.

-EDIT- And Halloween! I can't believe I forgot Halloween, a holiday which ONLY EXISTS because otherwise reasonable adults decide they need to get fucked up on pumpkin schnapps and dress like a slutty werewolf in the hopes of drunkenly banging that dude in the Batman pajamas who turns out to be their daughter's pre-school teacher. If you want to complain about holidays for alcoholics, Halloween is the only argument you need. It's the ultimate trump card.

I usually celebrate it by wearing as much orange as possible - orange shirt, orange tie, orange socks, (don't own orange pants), orange cycling armwarmers, orange cycling windbreaker. And fortunately my car is orange.

Personally I've never cared for St. Paddy's day. It is always amateur hour at the bars with idiots that normally stay home getting completely white girl wasted acting like jack asses. Then to add to the fun EVERY person, regardless of race wants to run up to every Irish person they can find and tell them how they're really 1/10000th Irish so it's really their holiday too!

Tempe, Arizona.. Everywhere I've been on St. Paddy's day it's the same thing. I should say everywhere in major cities it's been that way. Once I was in a small speck of a town and no one there noticed it was supposed to be a holiday.

Oh, ok, considering you're here at ATOT, you can do a lot better than a dingy bar.
 
I got hammered last night. Woke up drunk and late for work. Buddy is throwing a party tonight. Might go to Vegas Saturday. Sunday brunch club. Shoot me.
 
Just got home from the party last night. What a blast. Had one serious/hilarious drama event I'll tell you all about but I need a nap first. I've got a ton of pics/video to sort through so I'll grab a quickie to toss in the babe thread and start sorting later.
 
What's Irish, and sits on your porch all year?


Patty O'Furniture!

Our city cracked down big time on SPD shenanigans starting last year because it was simply escalating every year. They used to just wink at the public drunkenness but now they make arrests and the areas with a lot of bars have police on horseback doing patrols.

Everyone can have a good time, but you can't stand in the streets and block traffic, fight, or annoy other people.
 
Last nights party was organized by some friends that aren't part of the adult industry so most of the standard rules (no implants, no tan lines, no flip flops, etc...) were not enforced. Really the only rules were a very recent clean slate from talent testing, no hatemongers, and no smokers. We had our favorite doorman flown in to handle the front door and check-in bouncers to handle the inner door. Staff (kitchen, cleaning, etc...) were all in uniform and wore ID tags at all times.

So despite all our precautions, we had a women try to crash the party. She snuck in through the underground tunnels to get past the doorman, paid off someone on the staff to switch into a uniform, snuck by all the other staff that might have blown her cover, and once inside she switched to just undies in one of the restrooms. Thankfully someone smelled her pretty quick and she was apprehended. The only part I actually saw was her fighting and screaming as the bouncers escorted her out. Smokers are insane. I hope she paid the waitress extremely well since she's now been blacklisted among all the classy joints. Have fun waiting tables at Denny's. We put guards on the tunnel right away too but no one else tried to crash.

Other than that, this was a pretty standard party with one special surprise. A couple of us geeks arranged for 100 pies to be delivered at 9am, most of them cream based, and we had a huge pie fight right at 9:26.

I've got a ton of video clips from a lot of people so I'll start picking out the best stills I can and putting them (or the links if they have actual nudity) in the babe thread. If any of you are also on the other forum, I'll just put the full videos there.
 
Don't care anymore.

I no longer consume alcohol, and don't really miss it. Last year I pretty much acted as designated driver and security for a crowd I had little interest in watching get shitfaced. It was boredom punctuated by crisis, and I didn't even really get a thank you, so fuck that noise from here on out I say.

If I do anything it will probably involve a crock pot and like Atomic, watching Waking Ned Devine.


You guys be safe now, watch thine ass.

isn't st. patrick the guy that brought Christianity to Ireland? so why has the celebration of his death become what it is - a huge party and excuse to get drunk on green beer?
 
I'm going somewhere with real corned beef n cabbage..
Maybe girls..
Anything after real Corned Beef and cabbage is secondary, however.
 
Just got home from last nights party. Nothing as big as the previous and nothing exciting really. After both parties and reviewing footage, I can still say that the latest breast implant technology produces disgusting results. I'll take an A cup over any sort of augmentation any day. I think one chick had something done to her ass too, it just doesn't look right, I'll go post it in the babe thread.
