If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Irish people were forced to eat potatoes because they were subjugated by british lords who took everything else they farmed. When the potato "famine" happened, they were actually still producing plenty of other food, just that the British lords didnt care and still forced them to hand it over.
Admittedly this is the extent of my knowledge on the situation, so you should look it up yourself if you want to know more.
The "Joke" at the irish guy in the greentext is actually pretty insensitive and rude, much moreso than asking a german why he didnt order sauerkraut.
Potatoes aren't even native to Ireland.
Yeah about a million Irish died and a million emigrated.
Ireland lost a quarter of it's population.
If the story wasn't gake and fay, and if that joke about bombing hospitals gets someone into trouble, then the potato joke definitely should as well.
bit mad innit?
Now now. People who accuse others of overreacting are themselves overreacting. :-)
What have we taken from you?
Youay have forgotten to take your medication buddy, calm down
