Just some gentle thoughts here - Ethnicity can be defined by a variety of criteria that can include national origin, common culture, race or religion. I suppose Independence Day (USA), Cinco de Mayo (Mexico), Easter (Christian), Anzac Day (Australia), Passover (Jewish), Ramadan (Islam) and a host of other holidays could all be considered ethnic holidays. I, for one, celebrate those who celebrate them. While I’m not a theologian, my understanding is that St Patrick was the patron saint of Ireland and is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland. By linking ethnic holidays with St Patrick’s Day and concluding such holidays are dumb, are we to infer dislike of the Irish? Or dislike of all those who celebrate the holidays mentioned above? I’d be surprised if that was the intent of the quote above. The only thing sort of dumb I find about St Paddie’s day is its modern glamorization of excessive drinking. But, that’s just me and I suppose the same can be said of many holidays.

QUOTE(Rohirrim @ Mar 19 2014, 01:24 AM)  I meant to infer general dislike of the way people celebrate such holidays: big paper sombreros on Cinco De Mayo, stupidly big green sunglasses and ECKSBAWKSHUEG shamrocks, and *grr* Columbus Day. WHY THE FUDGE ARE WE CELEBRATING COLUMBUS?!
Edit: Oh, and the Fourth of July: "MURICA! LETS ALL EAT HOT DOGS OFF MURICA PLATES WHILE WE DRINK FROM MURICA CUPS AND WATCH THE MURICA FIREWORKS! MURICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
The fourth of July celebration is a bad example because it is about celebrating American independence. It is one of the few holidays where the way it is celebrated actually makes sense.
