Irish it up

To add liquor to a beverage.

Someone hands you a plain glass of egg nog and then asks, "Want me to Irish it up for you?" They mean to pour rum in it, or some other liquor.

Irish-American

An American whose Irish ancestor(s) had the balls and sense to leave a impoverished, theocratic, and otherwise rainy shithole of a country unlike the the descendants of the pussies who stayed. (see Irish)

Irish-Americans often look like Irish, but they have nicer teeth.

Irish temper

The stereotypical temper of the Irish, and those of Irish descent. Most often somewhat unexpected, extremely passionate, and very short-lived.

Patrick O'MacPatrick: Hey, I'm sorry I flipped out at you dude.
Joe Smith: What?! You were screaming at me just five minutes ago!
Patrick: I told you I was sorry!
Joe: You threw the TV at me!
Patrick: It's just my Irish temper, you know?
Joe: *grumbles*

Lace Irish

used to describe people who were obsessively concerned about outward appearances; primarily to the detriment of those inside. It came from the practice of hanging beautiful lace curtains so your house looked nice from the street but having torn/broken furniture inside because you were so poor.

My mom grew up in a lace Irish home. Her mother would hang a giant Christmas Wreath on the front door but they would have no gifts... or tree.
