The Irish have commented - October 12, 2007
I'm getting nearly as much negative feedback--and a slew of snide, misspelled digs--for last night's post as I got when I wrote "I hate all Christians," further proving the Irish as passive/aggressive, too drunk to spell and angrier than shit at our god damned selves. To the young Irishman calling himself "Bog Hopper": No, you don't become "un-Irish" just because you leave the island. That is not how it works, but thank you for the death threat anyway.
We are a truly baffling people.
Edit: I take this death threat as seriously as I take Murph's chirps, which is not seriously at all. This guy is only slightly less scary than the Muslim kid who keeps promising to climb through my bedroom window and de-clit me to make me pure again. He would need a Delorean and some Plutonium to do that--the purity thing, not the clit-cutting.

With all of that said. Can't we all just hug and have lots more sex together? I think death threats can be resolved by more sex!
Bunny Edit: That's the best part of being Irish.

Great to see that your sabbatical didn't dull your skills! If I lived in Cali I would volunteer to organize and become the inaugural member of "The Bunny Clitoral Guard."
Keep it up kid, you are my favorite female writer.

I am Irish-Catholic, and I laughed at what you said because for years I have felt left out, while all the jokes and mockery went to the Jews. Seriously, do we take ourselves so seriously that we can't handle a fucking joke, a joke that is true for the majority of our people anyway? I mean, don't black people laugh about the watermelon and chicken comments? I know I do.
Honest to God, people, my great-grandparents are hardcore Irish-Catholic. There are framed pictures of the pope in their formal dining room, and in the den, hanging above the pictures of the grandchildren lest we forget where we fall in rank. We are raging drunks, some of us secretly, some of us not so secretly (sometimes wine is the only reason to look forward to going to St. Lucy's with the grandparents) and they are racist homophobes who are convinced the world would be a better place if the rules were rewritten so that Dubya could serve ten more terms.
It's a joke, but it's true. You people need to lighten up. Long live the bunny!
PS- You fuckers that think what she said was over the line need to think about that next time you call me pasty-I can't help it! It's practically a rite of passage to have legs this white!

You are awesome.

Bunny, please tell me that you watched UFC 77 Saturday. I had to order it. 40 bucks is a small price to pay for a good show. I think it's already uploaded on stage6.divx.com. Anyway, I hope your weekend was great. Much love.

Hi Bunny, I'm a longtime lurker who loves your writing! As an Irishman who's lived all his life in Ireland (except a year or two in the UK) I'd like to make a few comments. First off, as a nation of 4million people the Irish have punched above their weight in many world affairs - for example literature, from Yeats, Joyce and Wilde to modern writers such as Banville, Murdoch and Anne Enright, who just won the Booker Prize. We have other things that we shouldn't be so proud of - drinking, repressive Catholicism, "neutrality" during WW2.
I think from the perspective of native Irish people, many of us see 3rd or 4th generation Irish-Americans who visit here who are obviously from another culture and we are a bit skeptical about their claims to be Irish. However, I recently visited America and it struck me how proud the Irish are there of their heritage and I thought "wow, these are our people!" In conclusion, we'd love to see your sexy pink-skin tones on these shores so we can all celebrate our Oirishness.

For a great read on your (our) historic heritage check out the book "How the Irish Saved Civilization" (http://tinyurl.com/3cnljr) it's great and will give you loads of ammo for those who think we haven't made a valuable contribution in history.
Bunny Edit: Aww, sweetie, I know we're cooler than everyone else. We're self-depricating and funny, right? That's why everybody else in Europe sucks in comparison.
