An Irish is born
(Is that funny or is that offensive, I have no clue)
Probably both...
Probably funny to a younger Irishman but also remember that the Irish grew plenty of food but it was the English who took it away from them despite the fact that potatoes, one of the few things they were left with to eat, were experiencing a blight. The joke/story is often portrayed as the Irish learning aboit potatoes from the Americas and going all-in like the entire culture just went feral for the things and had a monocrop but that wasn’t at all what happened. It wasn’t about whether or not they liked potatoes and more a matter of what the English would even let them eat after stealing all their food.
I wasn’t making a lot of Irish potatoe jokes before but I straight up stopped after learning that. The English did some pretty fucked up things in Ireland.
Ore forebears' masters were money-grubbing cunts, this is true. Let's not pretend old matey in the pits was actively participating in the enactment of policies which caused death and emigration on scales unbeknownst before.
Our masters are now too, but at least they pretend not to be. Although they still don't teach kids about the empire properly.
As a person who grew up in Ireland since I was 5: this is funny to me
As a person that never went to Ireland, i find it pretty funny
As a potato I don't find any of this funny at all.
Oh, come off it. We know you're a blonde and not a sack of potatoes.
Well I never!
I’m Irish, I hereby condone this joke. You are free to go, sir.
