World's Best Nationality?
Most nationalities around the world probably consider themselves the best of all. That's just human nature. Americans certainly do. Brits, Aussies, French, Brazilians, Chileans, Egyptians, Mozambiquens, Chinese, Japanese, Indians, all feel the same way. Most nationalities are proud of themselves and would want to at least be considered for world's best. For my money though, I have to cast my vote in favor of the Irish and my reasoning is quite simple, Irish pride and Irish pubs.
To get yourself in the door as world's top nationality you have to first think you indeed are the best. Some folks think it's too bourgeois, egotistical or arrogant to think you're the best; we've got a lot of those here in the US. The Irish don't have that problem at all. They are a very proud people. OK, pride square filled. Most importantly though, for my choice as the best nationality in the world, is their invention of the Irish pub.
I read once that the greatest invention in the history of man is the clock. That may be true but the Irish pub is a very close second. Pub is an acronym for Perfectly Unbelievable Bar (I made that up) and when you put Irish in front of that acronym it becomes a kickass bar. What makes Irish pubs even better is that they are everywhere. I just made a trip to Paris and rather than going to museums, towers and cathedrals, which I've already done, I did an Irish pub crawl. No matter where you go you'll be able to find an Irish pub. London, Dallas, Moscow, Bangkok, Tegucigalpa, Jabuti, even Mogadishu. I'd put money on the fact that there's an Irish pub somewhere along the coast of Lake Titicaca. (Maybe not but I just like to say Lake Titicaca.)
Whatever or wherever you visit an Irish pub you're going to meet locals, folks from throughout that country and maybe even others from around the world. People in Irish pubs are always friendly and willing to talk. Irish pubs are an interactive, real world social setting that promotes political, racial and class harmony and tolerance. If you're a stranger in town and you're looking for a comfortable place for a few pints and some agreeable conversation, do a search on Google, Yahoo or Bing for Irish pub and you will be pleasantly rewarded.
The Irish have given the world a place where people from all walks of life can come together. Irish pubs have infiltrated countries around the globe and made each one of them a better place and a more tolerant society. Irish pubs are the reason the greatest nationality on earth are the folks from the Emerald Isle.
When you go to an Irish pub, here's what you want to wear.
