That would be awful if that was a terrible prank pulled on you by a mean older brother.

Oh, yeah, I got to pinch you.

No, no.

No, something related to the Irish.

Oh, Irish goodbyes?

Yes, Irish goodbyes, it turns out, are fine.

For those who don't know, an Irish goodbye is when you quietly leave a party without telling anyone.

You just disappear.

Some say that's bad manners, but some say it's good.

But everybody can agree that the Irish goodbye is better than the nowhere else to go, last one to leave.

So people have said, well, the Irish goodbye is very poor.

Poor manners.

You should say goodbye to your host.

But now a group of etiquette experts have agreed that in the right circumstances, it's actually the correct thing to do.

That's true.

Do you guys do the Irish goodbye at a party?

Do you guys seek out the host or do you just, eh, I'm out?

Okay.

It's on the record now.

If you're going to a party at Paula's house, let her know you're leaving.
