I married into a large Irish family and goodbyes take bloody forever as everyone has to have a ten-minute conversation with everybody else on their way out the door. Irish ghosting goodbye my eye.

Colombians are Irish who can’t hold their alcohol and who take even longer to say goodbye.

Giggled at this one. Kinda true in Fairness.

The Irish goodbye exists because the alternative is a long ass poetic farewell. So, if you want to avoid it, you give a couple people key goodbyes and check out.

...or just a sneaky nod to someone who understands what you mean. They're left to tell people that you went home, if anyone asks. Just don't do that when your round is next.

That's with family, with the lads/co-workers the Irish goodbye it's not saying anything and leave.
