Do they have an exhibit that explains the importance of hearts, stars, horse shoes, clovers, blue moons, pots of gold, rainbows, and red balloons?

Guy #1: Umm, there will at some point be leprechauns, in your leprechaun Museum? Correct?

Guy #2: I really hate that man.

What else is a third-world country with nothing to show for itself going to put in a museum? Potatoes? Booze? Car bombs?

Loved that movie.

"It is a derogatory symbol from an Irish perspective,"

Say what?

There was this girl I knew. Had a massive crush on her. She was beautiful; like a classic 50's pinup beauty. We used to hang out & whatnot, and try as I might, she wouldn't 'give it up' for me. until one day we were so bored, we actually watched Darby O'Gill & The Little People. When we needed a distraction from that terrible movie, we started gettin' it on.

Thank you, Darby O'Gill for the hotness.

Been there, done that. Yes, got the t-shirt. It became my drinking shirt, and lasted a good many years.

Would you like your heritage to be represented by a cackling little annoyance that jumps up and down on the sidelines of a Notre Dame game? It's as bad as the old Chief Illiniwek dance that Illinois used to put on (and I don't know why the NCAA hasn't cracked down on it yet).

Guinness museum is a cash sink. Go down to Cork and take the Beamish tour. 11:30am on Thursdays. It's a better stout anyway.

You are absolutely correct. However, all the other Guinn-ites won't allow themselves to believe it.

As for the rest of this thread (and everything else):

I'm Irish and as soon as I find out where this place is I'll be heading there. I'll be going via the head shop obviously.

UK residents born in Ireland including the Northern part? No, they are Irish. According to me

actually I don't drink much, don't go to bars, and usually find that observing Lent interferes with merry-making on st. patrick's day, because I'm a boring person.

And to tell you the truth I don't actually know if it's 1/8th or 1/4th: I've got an irish name but I don't know if Grandpa was all irish or if he was half german.

I do find it funny, though, that my kids will also have an irish surname when they're going to be so thoroughly polish/german

That's cool. I didn't mean any offence. I believe the more influences from different backgrounds and experiences the more kids benefit.
