Being Irish myself I had to laugh and find many of the statements true. Grew up in NJ where most were Irish or Scotch with a pub/tavern on just about every corner and a fish & chip store on the other corners. Laughter always abounded out of them too.

As a natural blonde, I have lived with all the blonde jokes all my life but don't take offense at them. I bet all those complaining about the so called Irish stereotyping didn't think twice about laughing at blonde jokes.

Laughter is the best medicine and we all have to be able to laugh ourselves too. If not, you grow up being one miserable and crabby old fart. So lighten up all and quit taking yourselves or things so seriously. Laugh, love and be happy.
