A dated and offensive expression generally used by English people to describe someone having an over the top strop.
Offensively refers to Irish people as "paddys" and their "over the top sulking" when it came to the English stealing Irish land, pillaging and their refusal to grant the Irish their independence for a long time.
It implies unreasonableness, obstinacy and an inability to control the temper (which go nicely with drunkeness and violence of course).
Outdated expression thats up there with the likes of "working like a black"

A person who retains a strong sense of Irish cultural identity despite not having been born in Ireland or being of only partial (if any) Irish descent; generally used in referance to Irish-English or Irish-Americans. Percieved as irritating poseurs by Irish nationals.

I nickname given to a vehicle police use to transport prisoners. The name came from the New York Draft riots of 1863. The Irish at the time were the poorest people in the city. When the draft was implemented it had a provision for wealthier people to buy a waiver. The Irish rioted, and the term Paddy wagon was coined.

When cats knead soft stuff for comfort.
Thought to be from when kittens kneaded their mothers tummy's to encourage milk flow.
Adult cats paddy paw anything soft and snuggly when in a cosy kitteny mood.
The cat may grip the item in its mouth while it paws or just paddy paw in a massaging motion going from left to right front paw.
Cats sometimes paddy paw their owners but as we don't have fur like mother cats it is somewhat painful. The hard core cat lady tends to endure this anyway.
Also known as baking biscuits.

Offensive expression used to describe someone having a tantrum by comparing someone to a "paddy". Unsurprisingly it's an expression only used by the English.
He's throwing a paddy
