No, just people showing disdain. St. Patrick’s Day is a large celebration here and the momentum was enough that you could see nothing but green for miles. I thought it was just an enthusiastic expression, which I was no less festive about, so here I was coming in wearing pink because it’s just how it was arranged, and I got called out for “breaking the chain” (because on all broadcasts being the only pink wearer in a sea of green would identify me to you instantly), “not reading the room”, and “attention-seeking”, fandom-style. Had a guy from an actual Irish council later comment sympathetically saying those people are not “of our flock who prize blue anyways”.
Ketchup?
