Ní thuigim é seo i ndáirire. I don't get this proverb. How can you be dead with tea? |

I believe that the meaning is as follows: whether or not you have tea, you are going to die...so you may as well relax and have a cup of tea. |

Or more accurately, too much tea might kill you, and the lack of it might too. |

It's kinda like "(wo)men: can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em." Caminante no hay camino, se hace camino al andar.
