Sarah

Being “Irish” can mean different things to people – whether it’s purely based on what passport you have, or a feeling of belonging in your heart, what makes you Irish is mostly up to the individual.

A recent Reddit thread however, has shared some seriously gas observations that really do make you Irish.

From knowing how to make the perfect stew to always staying up late for the Late Late Toy Show, here’s x things of how you know you’re Irish…

1. You steam burn the hand off yourself saving the schpuds

2. You go around in Penny’s boxer shorts your whole life because your mother still buys them for you

3. There’s a tin of roses from the 90’s filled with sewing material lying somewhere in the house

4. You know what cool-boiled 7up is for

5. You know that no pain exists like a bang of a hurl to the knuckles on a cold day

6. You mouth the words to “Owrawn na veen”

7. Local people who don’t know who will try to place you in a gigantic family tree in their head when they first meet you

8. Your ma has stacks of spare dishes that are for when you have a house of your own and have increased every year since your birth

9. Appearing on Winning Streak is the dream

10. Your father gives you a autobiography of an All-Ireland winner for Christmas, but you know what he means is: “I love you, son”

11. Chicken Fillet Rolls are life

12. You claim Irish weather is a blessing

13. You know Lyons is superior to Barry’s

Controversial with that tea one, eh? Let us know how else you know you’re Irish…
