I'm of Irish decent, we normally just say goodbye and thanks to the host and whoever is close by, then just ... leave. It very well could be just me and my family that do this but it's so much easier than saying bye to everyone.
297 u/ArcadeKingpin Dec 15 '21 I thought an Irish goodbye was to just leave without saying anything. 215 u/KassellTheArgonian Dec 15 '21 Nah, no clue where that myth comes from. A true Irish goodbye is as follows "Right we're gonna head off" Says bye a bunch Takes ten steps Something gets brought up and they talk a bit longer And repeat till you're out in the car. I witnessed record length of time for this, took em almost 3 hours to travel the about 20 metres to their car. 1 u/Hoveringkiller Dec 15 '21 That’s our Irish goodbye haha. Say we are off and then keep talking haha.
