Especially apt, too, because there are certain words we always pronounce in an Irish accent around here. Included: the phenomenon otherwise known as the "shart" in our house is referred to as a "dorty fort".

AHHH!!
Any opportunity to insert the following is appreciated and Adam’s “Smarties” provide such a moment.

To be spoken with a fine Irish brogue (the trick to the story)

Colin: Eamonn, you seem to be enjoying those beans,
Eamonn: Ah yes Colin, I’ve been counting as I’ve been eating. 239 of those delectable legumes.
Colin: Well, what about that last one? Aren’t you going to finish off the plate?
Eamonn: No, Colin. That would be 240.

It warms my heart to know that I can count on your for a post that includes references to things as disparate as fatwas and farties.
