        the name of the city is gray rather than black. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 08:12
        
        if the city has an (i) next to it, it means the player is inactive. -- nm - znufrii Mar 17, 08:11 1

Ugh - I pulled a muscle in my neck last night, and it is making it pretty much impossible to turn my head to the left. - kelly Mar 17, 07:59 6
- probably a muscle spasm. also called wryneck or torticollis. I've had trouble with it for several years now. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 08:00 2
  - No, I'm pretty sure it's not a spasm. -- nm - kelly Mar 17, 08:03 1

A wiki article on the Marching Season in Northern Ireland. This is contemporary. To me, this is what I think of when pepole talk about wearing orange. -- (link) - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:55 1
- and the article doesn't really get into it, but the marches have historically been a flashpoint for violence. -- (link) - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:58
heh, well those AI spec spoils are completely in line with what we've seen (spoils) - Jovian Mar 17, 07:52 8
- LIR ... the text about ignoring votes is actually in each contestants contract I think. The number of votes received is probably used more for sellin - DreadPR Mar 17, 08:05
- I haven't watched this season. (I haven't really watched since the travesty of Taylor Hicks) Is Danny's singing mediocre? -- nm - Diva Mar 17, 07:57 6
  - spoils - con_carne Mar 17, 08:02
  - I think he is the most overrated contestant this season. nm - Jovian Mar 17, 08:00 4
    - for me, that's Adam. so overrated. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 08:02 3
      - I like him, but I've thought about it and I can see the arguement - con_carne Mar 17, 08:12 2
        
        I like the ones who make me feel the emotion of the song. he doesn't. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 08:13 1
        
        Yep, I can see that -- nm - con_carne Mar 17, 08:15

I hate St. Patty's Day. If you want to get drunk, get drunk. If you want to wear green, wear green - Mr. Havens Mar 17, 07:48 6
- If you need a holiday to drink...you're not doing it right. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 17, 08:05 2
  - "...you're not JackDawson." would have also been acceptable -- nm - znufrii Mar 17, 08:25
  - I think I might steal this. :-) -- nm - maura Mar 17, 08:06
- eh, I rarely wear green otherwise. And I'm not going to drink whether it's a drinking holiday or not. -- nm - Callisto Mar 17, 07:50
- And if you want to sing out, sing out. And if you want to be free, be free. -- nm - TFox Mar 17, 07:50
- but shamrock shakes are not available any other time of year! -- nm - The Quiet Roger More Mar 17, 07:49
[deleted] 1
- I think they have that in there so that they can overrule overt acts of crap - Will Hunting Mar 17, 08:02
I was going to ask this even before the Strongbad thing. Who's wearing green today? - Callisto Mar 17, 07:42 5
- Well, I'm wearing green in my FB profile pic -- nm - con_carne Mar 17, 08:29
- i sort of am - but by accident (i have a heathery muted green wool wrap cardigan on). i didn't realize the date this morning till i got to work. -- nm - Andie with the black velvet band Mar 17, 08:21
- me. -- nm - kelly Mar 17, 07:50
- me. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:48
- I am -- nm - znufrii Mar 17, 07:44
"I have red hair, I don't need to wear green today." -- nm - Strongbad Mar 17, 07:40 42
- no BE green and not just today -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 17, 08:01
- Sometimes I wear orange on St. Patrick's Day. Is that mean? -- nm - maura Mar 17, 07:43 37
  - I'm wearing burgundy today -- nm - Mr. Havens Mar 17, 08:12
  - I gave it some serious thought, but orange really isn't my color. The logo on my green sneakers is orange - I hope that counts :) -- nm - Galway Girl Mar 17, 07:49
  - i wear orange tights and a green shirt every time i go out on st patricks day. - Andie with the black velvet band Mar 17, 07:48 2
    - I like that, it's very inclusive. :) -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:48 1
      - (I'm going to think you are Hunting all day long.) -- nm - TFox Mar 17, 07:49
  - some might see it as rude. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:47
  - Is there an explanation to this or is it mean that I also wear blue? -- nm - Max Mar 17, 07:46 28
    - Both symbolize Ireland, but orange is for Protestant. -- nm - maura Mar 17, 07:49
    - support for Protestant Irish - has roots in William of Orange -- nm - The Quiet Roger More Mar 17, 07:49
    - wearing green or orange was historically a political statement. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:48 2
      - Hawthorne always said he wore orange on purpose. -- nm - Reagen Mar 17, 07:49 1
        
        yeah, I found it kind of fighty. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:50
    - it's the protestant colour. (and st patrick is a catholic holiday) -- nm - Andie with the black velvet band Mar 17, 07:47 22
      - If St. Patrick is a Catholic holiday, then I have no business observing it at all. -- nm - maura Mar 17, 07:50 13
        
        well, it's named after a saint. :) - Andie with the black velvet band Mar 17, 07:52
        
        it's weird to me that it has turned into a US national holiday. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:51 11
        
        It's weird to people in Ireland too. -- nm - znufrii Mar 17, 08:04 1
        
        The Irish PM is in Washington DC right now, just as he is every year. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 08:05
        
        well, about half of the population of Ireland packed up and moved to the US in the 18th and 19th centuries. -- nm - Reagen Mar 17, 07:56 2
        
        in some cases, were put on ships. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:58
        
        The other half were sent to Australian penal colonies, but St Patrick's Day is nowhere as big there -- nm - The Quiet Roger More Mar 17, 07:57
        
        Despite the perverse way it gets exploited, I still see St. Patrick's Day as a sort of ethnic pride holiday - con_carne Mar 17, 07:56
        
        is it? I thought it was like a way more popular Cinco de Mayo. - TFox Mar 17, 07:52 4
        
        people are mentioning it everywhere you turn, right? -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:53 3
        
        yeah but it's not like official, is it? they aren't closing shit? -- nm - TFox Mar 17, 07:54 2
        
        not a federal holiday, but seems to have turned secular. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:56
        
        No, it's not a federal holiday. -- nm - maura Mar 17, 07:54
      - I don't think I ever knew this. -- nm - TFox Mar 17, 07:49 7
        
        Neither did I, but now I want my own Protestant Irish day. -- nm - Max Mar 17, 08:10 1
        
        July 12. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 08:11
        
        well, he's a Catholic saint. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:52 4
        
        No, I knew that. I didn't know the orange Protestant part, or that there was an especially bad color to wear today. -- nm - TFox Mar 17, 07:53 3
        
        have you heard of the marching season in Northern Ireland? -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:54 2
        
        not so much -- nm - TFox Mar 17, 07:55 1
        
        it's not pretty. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:56
  - it's.. antagonistic. -- nm - Reagen Mar 17, 07:44
  - slightly. -- nm - znufrii Mar 17, 07:44
- I caved in. -- nm - Will Ye Go, Loosi, Go? Mar 17, 07:41
- I just realized that I unconciously chose a green sweater today. - Reagen Mar 17, 07:41 1
  - I just realized that I chose between 2 identical polo shirts this morning: one maroon and one green. Picked the maroon. - TFox Mar 17, 07:46
*ahem* -- nm - O'Beryllium Mar 17, 07:40
Trish: I have an iPhone, not an iPod -- nm - Beryllium Mar 17, 07:39
