Today, an American lady here in Ireland asked me if I was a Leprechaun. Thinking she was joking, and me being quite "vertically challenged," I decided to just say yes. She then grabbed me and made me endure photographs, cuddles and pats on the head from all her fellow tourists. FML

SpilledWater93 tells us more.
To those of you who are American, please stop apologising and feeling bad, I actually found that lady and her friends quite amusing so they made my day. And what's more the story got published on here, that's more exciting than a pot of gold any day

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

As an American, a little part of me just died inside.

Oh behalf of Americans who aren't complete morons; I apologize for you having to endure such humiliation.

I feel so bad for you OP. I am an American and I can honestly say this does not surprise me. We aren't all that dull though.

As an Irish-American, this hurt me on both sides of the spectrum. I'm so sorry dude, people suck (especially Americans most of the time).

MADE you? If you're old enough to be on your own you're old enough to stand up for yourself when someone screws with you!

As a fellow Irish person, I feel your pain, OP. Just remember that not all Americans are like that.
