General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Just seen the term used a few times on the 'screaming kids' thread.

Coincidentally, I was only thinking the other day, as I was watching a Policewoman, if the term comes from the behaviour of miscreants in the back of a 'Paddy Wagon'.

I think the term 'Paddy Wagon' may also be debatable. I think the main claim to the name is the fact that a lot of New York Policemen were Irish.


Google time.
