Walsingham Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I had no idea Monday was going to be St George's day, and suggest we get into it the same way we do St Patricks.

SteveThaiBinh Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I vote for openly admiring Georgia, a plucky country with many trials and tribulations. I would do the ceremonial slaying of the dragon, but I'm not that far advanced in my game of NWN2. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

LadyCrimson Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 - Eating roast meat I'm up for that one. But I don't need a holiday excuse to do it. *grunting noises* “Things are as they are.

Walsingham Posted April 23, 2007 Author Share Posted April 23, 2007 I've always found it rather appropriate that Great Britain, which is herself as much an act of wilful self-delusion, should be a semi-fictional character.

Jorian Drake Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I had no idea Monday was going to be St George's day, and suggest we get into it the same way we do St Patricks. Ideas: - Eating roast meat - Forming closed rank of squares - Fighting France - Secretly admiring Germany - Even more secretly admiring Peru - drinking of brown ale - Drinking of gin and tonic It's a funny idea to make it similar to that of St. Patricks, but not a bad one Be wise, strong, and live long my friends. (and try not to kill many dragons please, they are an endangered species novadays ) I forgot eating Turkish food, because of course St George was Turkish Right, in the times of the Roman Empire circa AD 200-300 there were a LOT of turks in Anatolia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorian Drake Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Probably threatend some guys to death until they turned christian. The cult of St George probably first reached the Kingdom of England when the crusaders returned from the Holy Land in the 12th century.

I mention it because I don't think it's healthy to forget that England has done its fair share of ethnic cleansing in the past. However, as all good Englishmen know we always make light of the most serious things. I'm told reliably that I was never so funny as when I 1) had typhoid and nearly died 2) nearly severed my thumb off ... and nearly died. I've considered having a stand up show in which the audience participate by trying to kill me. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete.

SteveThaiBinh Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Of course we can cook. It's whether we can eat the results that's the question. There is of course a website demanding that St. George's Day become an official holiday, and I'd support the idea. I think we need to abolish Bank Holidays for being irredeemably dull, and replace them with actual days of celebration that mean something. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."
