How are You Recovering From St. Paddies Day?

Thread Starter 
Me and friends got shitfaced on Guinness, sweet tea vodka, and Bud Light then watched Punisher:War Zone and the third season of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Then we took a taxi to the town's most awesome bar and got even more shitfaced and well the night's kinda blurry after that. Anyways I wanted to ask; how did other Chewers spend last night and how are you dealing with the aftermath?

My brothers came over after work last night, and we polished off about 2/3 of a bottle of Johnny Walker Green while smoking cigars on my deck (it was pretty damn nice outside last night). We ate a pizza for sustenance, but it was really all about the scotch.

Surprisingly, I had no ill effects from the drinking this morning.

Speak for yourself...

I had 9 drunk cops in my backyard who all brought bottles of something.

That, combined with the case of Harp lager in my basement and celebrating the Irish heritage with a shitload of Chinese food, have left me mostly unable to function correctly today.

Fuck, I'm even typing too loud.

I got a stiff neck and I'm not quite here. But that was because I was attempting the butterfly. No booze yesterday.

Fuck you.

I had 2 Guinness and 1 Smithwick’s. One of these while giving the baby a bath. I had to honor my Irish heritage, much to my wife's despair...

When I first read that, I assumed that it was from puking all night.

Scottish heritage, here. While I love the Guinness (I even wore a Guinness shirt to work yesterday), we had to do scotch last night. It was a moral imperitive.

I went to bed at 9:30 after eating a peanut butter sandwich on wheat with a glass of skim milk. ROCK AND FUCKING ROLL, MAN.

I so understand. Hence the "fuck you" notice. The Green IS good stuff.

As you can see Lima, this board is filled with men who don't live by the rules.

We had no plans since my fiancee had an evening class last night and had to open this morning. Although she did manage to hit an Irish pub between her classes. And constantly text me about it while I was stuck at work.

I went out after work and had a Guinness and a couple of Killians, but it was a hollow revenge at best.

Had to stay at the job till 8, but we had corn beef & cabbage and fish & chips at work. A co-worker brought in some Guinness, so I atleast got to have 1 bottle before going home and taking care of my sick daughter while my wife headed off to work herself. I'm tired, but only because I had to get up early and take my daughter to the doctor's.

It is possible to celebrate BOTH Saint Patrick's Day and Cinco de Mayo.

Had about a dozen people over and got shitfaced and watched Sex Drive and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Went to bed around four, got up at eleven, and have been nursing a hangover with ibuprofen, Monster energy drink, and more green dyed alcohol.

Yes, we have a very large Latino population, especially in alot of the smaller towns. We also have very large Somali and Hmong populations.

I knew about the Hmong and Somali populations. But I didn't know that.

In any case, bring on the chips and limes!

Rough day at work was abated somewhat by my wife surprising me at home with ice cold Guinesses and Harps. Kicked back, downed some brews, went to bed.

Dull, I know, but such is my life. Next week I'm on a mini-vacation, so I'll get properly tanked then.

I want to party with you, Cowboy. 9:30? Fucking madman, that's what you are. It wouldn't surprise me a bit if you told me you cut the crusts off that sandwich - I doubt the cops would dare to fuck with ya if that came out.

When I lived in the Tri-State area, we use to flock to NYC every year and pubcrawl our way to McSorley's downtown. We'd drink and puke and drink some more. It's a miracle we made it to our destination and then back home alive every year. Stories. There are stories, I can tell you. Then, my buddy decided to get married the day after St. Pat's and we moved to FL. An end to an era (nearly a decade).

I did a Car Bomb when I got home from work and smoked a big ol blunt and watched The West Wing.

Definitely a lame St. Patty's but at least I wasn't miserable at the office all day.

When I was single, my Irish buddies (mostly cops) and I would get together every St. Pat's and hit a couple of Irish pubs, usually working our way to a go-go bar (for example, one year we'd be up near Sayreville, hit Duffy's Tavern (RIP), and make our way to Go-Go Rama or Go-Go on the Rocks. There'd be at least 1-2 fights, followed by puking, make-up bro hugs, and lots of bad , drunken warbling to Danny Boy). Good times.

as St.Paddies is entirely too close to my Birthday, I spent the afternoon using the bowflex for an hour and then later on having 1 Samuel Adams Boston Lager with my single serving meal of rice, chicken, and vegetables.

Then went to bed about 11pm.

Going to catch up this weekend though.

I only did it because my friends who own a bar had a 12 buck all you can drink special. I sat at the bar and made fun of everyone with the staff the whole night.

Being half Irish & half Mexican, I enjoy both!

I started the night hanging out with a friend who was bartending at a local restaurant here. Had dinner & drinks for about 3 hours, and my tab was less than $4. Gave her a hell of a tip, though.

Then I did the usual of heading out to the local Irish bar and meeting up with friends. Some of us ended up back at my place, and I woke up today with my back patio completely trashed, and various towels & clothing (none of it mine) floating in the pool.

About the usual for St Paddy's Day. Although I'm getting to feel a bit old doing this - not sure how much longer I can keep it going...

I'm a failure of an alcoholic. I stayed in on St. Pats this year.

If it helps my cred, I'm drinking now and went to a pub last Saturday where they held some premature festivities.
