Thread Name: BS: Plastic Paddy comments
Subject: RE: BS: Plastic Paddy comments
I once helped a mate dig a hole in his pub car park.

Does that make me a plastic paddy?

People who crave to be and faun over Brits are known as Anglophiles. (Bill Bryson being an excellent example.) At least plastic paddy doesn't sound all posh and intellectual.

Anyway, to be a plastic paddy, you cannot be Irish, so I fail to see who can be outraged by the term?
