ST. PADDY’S DAY PINCH

[@stealthlock6634]

I’m glad the running gag didn’t become “how absurd is the pinching going to get,” but instead, “what is going to count as wearing green next”

How do you, as one person, make a funny 2 minute skit with like 3 different interconnected plot lines? That’s some talent and skill right there.

[@chevingladden5146]

I don't even know which part was funniest! Started laughing at Austin's chip bag, still laughing after the last "that counts"!!!

[@hye-seopshim6363]

"That counts" I was about to think he was going to say "You just vomited the only green you have" and then pinch him

[@erinpenn7745]

Splash (shoes, pants, socks)

[@galaxiaad]

Yep, now he's wearing it 😂

[@lucybrown1804]

I actually expected to see Tony once he was mentioned, he seems like a chill enough guy to join in on a KZbin sketch.

[@LucyStokesOceansofNotions]

We don’t pinch in Ireland. It’s an American thing. Like saying “patty’s day”. Which to an Irish person is like hearing nails down a blackboard.

[@AlmaWadeCrymsm]

Haha I bet that gets annoying. I actually forgot it was today until I saw some themed videos on youtube earlier.

[@Embattled5211]

I'm sure most people are well aware. Just like every other American tradition, it's American!

[@shazba1020]

I was actually sorta confused when I heard people saying only Irish people pinch, thx for explaning that

[@LucyStokesOceansofNotions]

@@shazba1020 there’s such a large Irish population in the US, it’s not that surprising that they develop their own traditions I guess! I only found out about pinching about 2 years ago😂

[@jendjoyce]

American is a strange case. We have immigrated in different waves. Those who've been here longer have ostracize "newcomers". During one period, what I call "Irish need not apply days" those being turned away decided enough was enough. They decided St. Patrick's day was going to be a day for them. A day to not shy away from racism but to be proud of who they are as Americans. Needless to say it is an American holiday. One I'm very proud of. Frankly, it doesn't have much to do with Ireland but rather acceptance and fighting back again racism as an American.

I’m American, but I’m of Irish descent and have an Irish last name. I’ve never really taken the pinching thing that seriously, but I did get a bunch of crap today because my camo sweater was apparently grey instead of green. I see green when I look at it, but maybe I’m just blind 🤷🏼‍♀️

I was born and raised in Georgia USA. Our kindergarten teacher warned us to be sure to wear green on St Patrick's Day. Folks got pinched a lot in grammar school. But not me. Momma made sure that my siblings and I had green clothes.

Best St. Patrick’s Day I’ve had; lived in SF. Late 80’s. We both dyed all our clothes green. I already had green hair. Got a bottle of Jameson’s whiskey, went down to the base of the TransAmerica building downtown. Watched the Bedlam Rovers play. It sprinkled, we were all afraid of being electrocuted, but sat on the edge of a construction dumpster, had another pull on the bottle, and stayed. Had to put the bottle in her boot due to police presence. She wore one boot most of the afternoon. On the way home, we went up Powell St and ran up to people coming out of places like the Westin St. Francis, asked to see their green, then pinched them regardless, and ran. I’m part Irish. I had potato duty. I did something disrespectful with a potato at the door of a Catholic Church. We covered all the bases that day. 🙂🙃
