Happy St. Panties Day!

St. Patrick is credited with driving the snakes out of Ireland...

However, science tells us that there never were any snakes in Ireland (climate & geography is all wrong, doncha know?) so where does this myth come from? Funniest story/joke/answer/GIF wins a cookie!

Actually, there should be I think. During the last ice age sea levels were much lower than today, and the British isles were joined to Europe. A large area of what is now the North Sea was part of the continent above sea level.
