Paper irish: Americans who are genetically irish but are scoffed at by the REAL irish. That is, they are irish only according to 23 and me.
If you are a yank and you may have irish descent but you think "too-ra-loo-ra" is an Irish lullaby, and you get drunk on green beer on st. Patrick's day, you're just "paper irish."
