Oh Grimace boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling

Éiden and I just  got Shamrock Shakes from McDonald's (I know, I know, they're hideous concoctions but they remind me of childhood) which led me to ask the question, whatever happened to Paddy O'Grimace? 

(And for that matter, what happened to his cousin Grimace, Mayor McCheese, an Big Mac?  I suspect the creepy new Burger King may be somehow involved in their suspicious disappearance.)

What the hell WAS Grimace anyway?

You bought Éiden a WHAT!?!?!??! You fucker; you're poisoning our child physically and culturally!

I know it was terrible and horrible and very wrong of me and I am a very bad person for even thinking of getting Shamrock Shakes. It's just that they're so incredibly delicious and I wanted him to be proud of his Irish heritage on St. Patrick's Day. After all, it was the Irish who gave birth to those wonderful drinks.

(I got one for Arie, too)

You are VERY lucky you have such a cute ass.

Those things are SO NOT shakes. (But they are delicious anyway.)

I believe Grimace and Mayor McCheese died in a murder-suicide pact. Details were sketchy, but it's rumored that Grimace was tired of always being the one in the gimp suit.

No, that's just a rumor like Mikey and the Pop Rocks. According to Wikipedia it was that fucker, Jimmy, and his magic flute with the help of H. R. Pufnstuf. They couldn't handle the competition.

You know, Jimmy was a nice kid until he started carrying that flute around. Total One Ring kind of situation, there.
