OK, this is going to be short and sweet. I know that this doesn't reach a wide readership. A fact I somewhat bemoan and wish were otherwise but if I can at least get you silly gits to get this right then I will have at least started somewhere.
St. Patrick's Day is around the corner (My favourite holiday next to Halloween) and it is common to abbreviate it because our culture is lazy and we like to get things done now. That being said I cannot begin to count how many times I have seen it abbreviated Patty's.
THIS IS WRONG.
Patty is a nickname for Patricia or other FEMALE names of the like. Paddy is the male nickname for Patrick or other male names of the like.
So this St. Patrick's Day please remember that it's St. PaDDy, not St. PaTTy.
Thank you and good night.
