I'd like to file a complaint about the guy who is complaining about the guy who is complaining about the complainers!

@rulebook: What is worst, the complainer or the guy who complains about complainers?

OMG I can haz bitter gothamizt commentar? It only took about a second. And how am I flattering you? You just seem super angry, not unlike many of the other people you're bashing. Some people love the holiday, some people hate it. If you love it, say so! It just sounds so much sweeter than an undercutting, possibly insecure jab at other folks. And if you do love it, I hope you're having a blast--or will at least have one after work. Sounds like you might need a drink!

Haha, excellent. You know how they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery? On the interweb it's a bit different: spending time looking up people's old comments and then posting them in HTML is the sincerest form of flattery. Thanks homie! And sorry, it's not a "line"...I just don't know how to better express the visceral experience of scanning comments from the biggest bunch of complainers around. Whaaaaaaa!

@Rulebook On January 30, 2008 10:53 AM in Taxi Rider Sexually Assaulted by Cab Driver, they said: Whaaa! Bad things sometimes happen in a city of over 8 million people! Whaaaaaaaa I wanna go back to the Midwest! Get some new lines, homie!

My grandfather from County Kerry used to call this St. Jackass Day. He would rant and rave about the stupid American Irish who never stepped foot in Ireland and their celebration of this stupid holiday over a saint that didn't exist. It made me think that this is the equivalent of celebrating MLK Day with looting. Ah I miss you Grandpa.

I don't remember when they stopped selling the Shamrock Shake -- but I do remember that on St. Patrick's Day two years ago there was an actual river of green puke meandering down Canal St. from its source at the McDonald's on Lafayette.

Yay, a holiday that celebrates three of my favorite things; binge drinking, boiled cabbage and kelly green. Ugh. X-(

What a beautiful evening to stay in and listen to all the ruckus fist fights and breaking glass down on the street below.

Saw the green bagels in Zaro's this morning. Just makes me proud to be Irish... that and the underaged clowns vomiting them up all over the Metro-North and the LIRR later.

Ever since I was a wee lad, I've wanted to try the Shamrock shake every year the commercials rolled around in March. I'm gathering though, that the thought of having it is a lot better than the actual product.
