As we prepare for another celebration of the glorious nation of Ireland, some
students are connecting with the vast and layered history of the Isle. The Boundary took to campus walkways, local watering holes, and your friend-of-a-friend’s basement to see how UofT’ers are preparing for a relaxing and culturally enriching St. Patrick’s Day.
“What, it’s not just about wearing green and getting blasted?” spat Stephanie Bridge, a
sophomore student majoring in anthropology. Given her area of expertise, Bridge should have been an expert on discussing the origins of the holiday.
“Yeah I study Anthropology, but I can’t lie, I still have no idea what exactly Anthropology is,” she admitted when asked about her studies. “Anthro means animal, and pology is some type of orgy, I think,” she continued.
“What I definitely can’t believe is that there actually is an island full of short ginger assholes and alcohol abuse,” Bridge asserted. “Well, besides Britain.”
Despite this lapse in knowledge, it was clear that Bridge empathized deeply when discovering the country’s recent struggles and growing role in the globalized world. “I ended up looking at the Wikipedia, and it looks like for a long time they were really going through the troubles,” she said. "I don’t know, I’d be troubled too if people didn’t think I existed. Wait, why are you still asking questions?” asked Bridge.
*It should be noted Bridge was found indulging in a green Smithwick’s and was potentially in questionable mental capacity at the time of his interview.
