Quote from: Pica Pica on January 15, 2011, 08:40:15 PMIt reminds me of the story about an American that went into an Irish bar and said that his Great-Grandmother was Irish so he felt at home there - to which the locals beat him up. When he asked, from his bloody, toothless state why they had beaten him up when he was Irish, the locals said, 'You're not Irish, your great-grandmother was, and she ran out on us.'
Way to treat their cousin.  :o

My Dad's side is of French Canadian descent with a bit of Cree, and my mother's side is Pennsylvania Dutch, English, and we don't know what else.

I could go on listing all the different parties from past generations of my family but if you saw me in person you would say "she's black".  Yeppers.

Username

White Hispanic, which tends to be weird when I'm filling out forms. I remember tests that didn't let you check more than one. So annoying. Plus, people won't believe it exists... wtf...

Anyways ancestor wise... Spanish on my dad's side, Italian on my moms. I love that I'm Italian, it will make it super easy for me to move to Europe when I'm older. I don't like the states much, and my country of birth isn't that great either.

I was under the impression from the family history we have unearthed that I was Anglo-Celtic (Cornish) Australian, but I have discovered that I have a Jewish Great-grandmother, so according to certain people I am Jewish. In lots of ways that's almost the same as being an Aussie anyway.

i use to say i'm sami because i don't want to be norwegian. unfortunately both my parents are norwegian, so it's impossible for me to not be norwegian. my father's sami, but refuses to be anything other than norwegian. somehow ethnicity's become very fluid here up north, you can't know what anyone is really. even sami isn't just one ethnicity, but it is a different culture. if you're part of the culture, you're sami, unless you don't want to be sami, then you're not

Half Mexican.  Quarter White.  Quarter Lebanese

For some reason the latter two show up much more than the first, but there are aspects of them all.  I believe I have some facial features of the Lebanse, skin color of the white [though if i tanned.... can match up to Lebansese tone or light Mexican], and the hair of a Mexican [as it is black, and my skin color is white, most people are thrown off and ask me if I color my hair, since it is about as likely for a white person to have black hair as it is a Mexican to have blue eyes]

Ethnically I'm African American; however, I'm lighter than my pale-as-bone English friends though. Nationally I'm Japanese-American but have no Japanese relations. My mom still claims I look Asian though...

One half Danish. The other half is a mixture of Scottish, English (including Cockney), and French. There is a rumor of some Native American, but that's not documented.

White as death, generally. XD
But I also carry Cherokee, adopted Creek, adopted Dutch, Irish, Italian, German, and other-odds. @_@;
The adopted ones are my dad's side. XD I don't know my biological dad, so there's probably more.

My sister and I tend to like to stress the Irish part. ;D

Okay, time to make a list...lol

Irish, Scottish, English, German, Italian, Cherokee, Sioux, and...Chinese.  Yes, Chinese.  I don't look Chinese at all, but it's definitely there; I can see it mostly on my dad's side, especially his mom and his aunt.  But his mom's totally racist and denies it all over the place, but it's too easy to see it for her to lie about it.  She says it's Irish...but that ain't no Irish; I know because I'm 50% Irish.  :laugh: lmao.
