  • Others have given you solid answers on why the chicken and watermelon thing was really stupid so I’ll try to answer from the Irish perspective on the second part of your question:

    You can serve me corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick’s day as long as you’re not being a dick about it. I’d probably consider it a nice effort actually if I happened to be abroad on the day.

    My dad used to love corned beef, cabbage and potatoes with parsley sauce. It’s a grand meal but not my thing.

    If you were a unionist who served it to me in a leprechaun outfit I’d be inclined to tell you where to go though.

    Edit: I hope this answers your question. It’s a good question and the answer is nuanced so if I can offer you more perspective let me know, I’d be happy to help.

    Dubya was definitely way smarter than the media portrayed him at the time. He did very well in the debate against Gore.

    I read that the whole “fool me once” gaffe was down to him not wanting to be have a sound bite of him saying “shame on me”, copped it mid sentence then tried to cobble his way out of it. Not sure how true or accurate that is but it is at least plausible.
