Honestly, the best part of being Irish, and I think this has helped me in life, is the "fuck you!" attitude.
I was, and still am, at a party across the street (came back for a drink). I was leaving the house and I heard two guys say something I thought was about me. I turned around in an instant, instinctively, fists clenched (funny cause I'm a pacifist), thinking, "bring it on mother fucker!"
I seriously think that is an Irish trait, the idea of, "I'm fighting for me and what I believe in, and I'm not scared about it!" It's an amazing genetic trait. My mother and sisters are like that.. no one ever fucked with them, cause they knew. My Dad is like that too, but he's just a crusty Scottish Canadian.
I still think it has made my life better, especially my career... having the balls and the fire.
