Irish Fag

"A guy who'd walk past a bar to be with a broad" from the memoir "The Tender Bar" by J.R. Moehringer

"...I asked Bob the Cop if his wife ever got suspicious about his being out every night." "Nah", he said "She knows I'm no Irish fag."

Irish Luggage

(n): a parcel, sack, or other such utilitarian container, typically constructed of either brown paper or thin-sheet plastic (i.e. grocery bags) that is either slung over one's shoulder or held beneath one arm. Typically seen on the person of bums, vagrants, pikers, vagabonds, and the Irish of South Boston. Can be used to carry lunches, clothing, or all of one's personal possessions.

The man looked downtrodden, carrying his entire life around in greasy Irish luggage.

Irish whisper

Derived from when someone is really drunk they try to "Irish whisper" something to someone and everyone hears it because you are too drunk to keep your voice down. Guessing it is called "Irish" because the Irish are known for love of drinking alcohol?

If you are speaking in a normal or loud tone "Hey Bill check out the hot girl next to me with the big tits! Isn't she hot?" You will in fact be doing an Irish Whisper.

Irish Alzheimers

A condition primarily (not exclusively) seen in women of Irish ancestry involving a loss of rational and objective memory, specifically as it pertains to any past misdoings on their behalf. This lapse in memory is almost always accompanied by an innate ability to recall with unparalleled clarity any wrong others have caused them, regardless of how trivial or seemingly unrelated.

I was winning the argument with Patricia until her Irish Alzheimers flared up and she reminded me that on our third date I told her she didn't look good in yellow.
