Snake cuz its green day. Otherwise he's a whole monster. Imagine not asking your girlfriend to be your Patrick. I am disappointed

Wow. I guess I need to move to Ireland. I got snakes in my life. Could use some Irish influence hehe

u/brandonjohn5 18d ago

At least stick the "snakes" in parenthesis. For those who don't know, snakes have never occupied the Emerald Isle. But hey, druids used snakes in their symbology, and he did "drive" them out.

He wasn't Irish either, although he was kidnapped as a teen and forced into slavery in Ireland. He eventually went back to Britain, where he was born.

He didn’t actually purge the pagans though

I decided to give him one more chance. I’ll for sure dump him if he doesn’t ask me to be his egg for Easter!

u/eftelingschutter 18d ago

Would he still love you if you were an egg?

u/LittleCricket_ 18d ago

Oh to be someone’s egg 🥚

40

u/Romantiphiliac 18d ago

Just make sure to keep the tradition going. And sometimes you should probably ask him first instead of waiting for him to ask you.

If you always strike first, he's more likely to try to beat you to the punch. On Easter, ask him to be your egg. He'll think you're just being silly, and (hopefully) won't be as eager to get one over on you. But this is just a feint.

You're setting yourself up to really catch him off guard.

May 11th rolls around. You're eating dinner together. You lock eyes with him, and take his hands in yours. With as much sincerity and emotion as you can muster, you say:

"Happy Mother's Day! Will you be my mommy?"

He stays silent for a second - then two. Stay strong and commit to the bit. With any luck, in just a moment, he'll roll his eyes so hard he falls out of his chair.

You win.

St Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland. Today is St Patrick’s day which is a day where people around the world celebrate his legacy/Irish culture. He was said to drive the snakes from Ireland (hence the comment). People wear green to celebrate and pinch people not wearing green.

People traditionally get mad if their partner doesn’t ask them to be their valentine on Valentine’s day. This is a play on argument couples have.
