So, what nationality are you?

[tsst]

dad's ancestry, English and Scottish + mom's ancestry, German and I think some Austrian = American

 

[Snake Dave]

Well thanks for all your insightful replies everyone.

I was born in England, but I live in Wales. My Dad's side of the family is Welsh and can be traced back by like 14 generations, so he was the one that broke the practice lol. :grin01:

My Mum's side of the family is pretty much just English, with a bit of scottish added like 4 generations back.

Mexican American

I am Mexican born and raised in Corpus Christi TX(city by the sea),but I had to move 10 years ago to Houston TX.

 

[jazzgeek]

I'm an "Amurrican" - with Irish and German ancestry.

By stereotype, I guess this makes makes me a drunk....but a very precise, well engineered drunk.

Lmao I like that Dale. :grin01:

I saw a picture of you and yes you do look like you're of German ancestry.

Well, it's Wisconsin; in this state, you can't swing a dead cat without hitting someone with Teutonic Gemütlichkeit.

When the mascot of one of your local professional sports teams is a guy in lederhosen, you know you're in a German town.

I don't know actually ... I'm adopted.

 

[tyflier]

I'm adopted, too. But I do happen to know my ancestry. Born in America. My gret-grandparents on my father's side were 100% German, spoke very little English, and fled Germany after WWII. My mother's side is a bit more muddied, but I know there is Scottish, Dutch, Irish, and French in there somewhere...not sure where, how, or when they migrated to America, but it was a LONG time ago...

So yea...I'm a classic American Mutt.

 

[mbdorfer]

1/2 Italian, 1/2 German.
I was once lovingly referred to as the "woppin' kraut" :grin01:

 

[Phoeb]

Born and raised in Birmingham, England. I think my grandmother has some Irish in her, I'm not 100% sure.

 

[texastailfeathers]

Texan.

For those of you who don't consider "Texan" a true nationality (shame on you), I'm just a boring redheaded white American girl from a looooooooong line of Irish people. A Scot and a Welshman sneaked into the bloodline somewhere a while back , but we're mostly just Irish.

 

[tom e]

My ethnic background isn't my nationality.. So I put Americas. But if you want ethnicity, who knows. Heinz 57 American whiteboy I guess. Supposedly got a little Cherokee thrown in the mix as well. My mom has a Danish name and my Dad's is Welsh.

Some of us argue that this phrase is an oxymoron.

Yeah, yeah....boys will be boys.

You're such a goof. You do know that redheads are evil, don't you? :devil01:

 

[jazzgeek]

You do know that redheads are evil, don't you?

Um, yeah, that's kind of the point.

Evil, in moderation, is fun. (AKA, "Everything in moderation...including moderation.")

Perv! :sidestep:






(Kidding, of course. )

 

[Dreqqus]

Me and my siblings were born in this country, as were my parents but all 4 of my grandparents are from Ireland. My grandmother being the genealogy buff that she is has traced us back almost 13 generations as being Irish.

But me I'm a Texan!

 

[texastailfeathers]

But me I'm a Texan!

Hooray for Irish Texans. :cheers:

Some day we will take over the world. :grin01:

 

[jazzgeek]

Hooray for Irish Texans.

OK, I'm trying to imagine a thick Irish brogue mixed with a thick Texas suhthun accent.

My brain hurts.
