For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”
Similarly, the Shamrock, (☘️) an important symbol for Saint Patrick’s Day has three leaves where most SPD kitch sold in the US features four-leaf clovers (🍀) an unrelated good luck symbol. I dont object because I feel Ireland needs a better iconic saint (and a better holiday) than the guy who brought the imperialist religion under which the native Irish would be subjugated.
They need someone like Joan of Arc who ran the English out (of settlements in France).
Wait, he didn’t chase out literal snakes?!
While I know you’re being funny, for those unaware, the snakes being referred to with St Patrick were a euphemism for the non-Christian beliefs in Ireland.
Yep yep, nothing quite as fun as associations with colonial bullshit. I definitely should have added /s

So, let’s get rid of the Catholic St. Patrick and bring in the Catholic St. Joan of Arc? That seems illogical, since St. Joan of Arc also represented what you refer to as an imperialist religion. St. Joan also overtly represented the imperial power of France, which was very much expanding its territory at the time that she lived. I agree with you about the shamrock.
I meant similar to Joan of Arc, in that she chased the English out, but I’d be much happier for someone who wasn’t a religious saint.
For now, it’s Mad Sweeneys’ day, more or less.
