So there's a conversation on FB yesterday about a bad country record.
And someone posts a photo of the guys

Someone else comments on how Irish they look

So I'm all 'wut??'

My friend hatesplained to me that

it's certainly a stereotyped irish guy i have in mind of which Colin Farrell is the Grand Poobah. It's the belt buckles and leather bracelets that are shouting it to me. . . and their similarity to the ridiculously stereotyped irish character in this really dumb rom-com.

sorry.

The proceeded to post the trailer for PS I Love You and Gerard Butler being another main offender.

I didn't even know this stereotype existed

It's definitely a thing. So many stoopid Americans think that's what Irish men are like, or some crap. In fairness, I have no problem being compared to Gerard Butler.

So the department admin sends around an email saying big boss man is buying us all chinese food next Wednesday for lunch to kick off Thanksgiving. Which is great. There'll be beer. It'll essentially be a half day.

Is it a case of him thinking reply to all was fine? Or was he sharing a joke with the also racist admin?
