‘St. Patty’s Day?’ Never! Irish agency corrects it to ‘St. Paddy’s’
Google extension spares Irish patriots the irritation of seeing others get the saint’s name wrong.
The folks at In the Company of Huskies were driven to distraction, apparently along with the entire population of Ireland, by those who call March 17 “St. Patty’s Day” rather than “St. Paddy’s Day.”
So they created a “No More Patty” Google Chrome extension that “automatically replaces every online mention of the ‘very wrong’ Patty with the ‘absolutely right’ Paddy,” the Irish Independent reports.
