At least one of your cousins is a fireman, cop, bar owner, funeral home owner or holds political office. And you have at least one aunt who is a nun or uncle whos a priest.. 4.You think you sing very well. 5. You have no idea how to make a long story short! 6. There isnt a big difference between you losing your temper or killing someone.... 7. Many of your childhood meals were boiled. Instant potatoes were a mortal sin. 8. You have never hit your head on a ceiling. 9. You spent a good portion of your childhood kneeling in prayer. 10. Youre strangely poetic after a few beers. 11. Some punches directed at you are from legacies of past generations. 12. Many of your sisters and/or cousins are named Mary, Catherine or Eileen .... and there is at least one member of your family with the full name of Mary Catherine Eileen 13. Someone in your family is very generous. It is more than likely you. 14. You may not know the words, but that doesnt stop you from singing.. 15. You cant wait for the other guy to stop talking before you start talking. 16. Youre not nearly as funny as you think you are... but what you lack in talent, you make up for in frequency. 17. There wasnt a huge difference between your last wake and your last keg party. 18. You are, or know someone, named Murph. 19. If you dont know Murph then you know Mac. If you dont know Murph or Mac, then you know Sully.. Then you probably know McMurphy. 20. You are genetically incapable of keeping a secret. 21. You have Irish Alzheimers... you forget everything but the grudges! 22. Irish Stew is a euphemism for boiled leftovers. 23. Your skins ability to tan.... not so much. (Only in spots!) 24.
