Set The Building On Fire.
St. Patrick’s Day is on its way, a holiday whose real meaning has been lost on us but we’re still on board with anyway because drinking. It also brings out the puking in the street and wetting their pants at 10 a.m. amateurs.
But it doesn’t mean we all can’t drink together in harmony. Just separate yourself from the can’t-hold-their-liquor pack by opting for St. Paddy’s-themed drinks that aren’t green beer.
