Who the hell said it had to be a one time thing?

Not me. I'm up for it anytime!

Wow, now I have a friend who's a Negro. How exciting!

Seriously, I would like to do Ancestry.com, but have not yet. I know that it will show that I'm mostly Irish and Italian, with a tiny bit of Scottish and English. My ancestors haven't been on this continent for long enough for there to be much cofusion about anything like that... if I were part black or Native American or whatever, I would definitely have already heard about it. The only interesting thing that might show up is that I could have a little Balkan ancestry. The village next to the village where two of my great-grandparents were born, in Italy, was sort of a refugee colony for Albanians who settled there after fleeing from the encroachments of the Ottoman Empire, back in the 1400's. They have never really assimilated to become Italians, they still speak a dialect of Albanian in that village. So, that will be interesting if I turn out to have an ancestor or two from there, but otherwise I'm basically an Irish/Italian mutt... a very common type of mutt in the northeastern USA.

Lmao!! Tied with Foz's below comment as funniest on the thread.

re-reading my original comment comes across as drunken misplaced bitter negativity, not exactly what i intended, so apologies if the 'comment deleted' was some sort of reponse to this. go back far enough n we're all from Africa, before the tectonic plates split n when early human had to emigarate to hunt, least thats what historians reckon.

assuming the quarter Cherokee came from a Grandparent, what ethnicity did they turn out to be? n half Eng, is that half a percent, or like half 50% half?

dunno bout delving straight into the urban slang, maybe test out a few 'my man!'s before going full on nigger with the homeys down the hood!

Naw Foz...was drunk posting meself lastnite so hungover this morn I did some deleting. Nevermind continue onwards.

onwards my Italian-American-Hungaro-Madhouse amigo! should maybe have just deleted my comment buttfukkit if i start censoring drunken shit on here i'll have nothing to post...

As I said...carry on forward into the breach!

Irish, surprisingly. I got about a quarter of that. There's also some Scandanavian, more English, putting me at about half, and also a little of what's described as West European, which could be one or more of quite a few countries.

Lmao!! I'll try and take baby steps in trying to fit in with the homeys. I can't see myself calling peple dawgs, but jive turkey, I think I can pull off.

haha you a hip cat m'man! I had an Irish grandparent, not a nation known for it's Native Americans so yeah that's quite suprising. Wonder where they got Cherokee from - it's cooler than being Irish so maybe thats it! Ireland's also about as West European as it gets, but i suspect they mean the Gallic or Latin countries.

aside from being drunk, i must have been in a bad mood when i first read your post. cynically misunderstanding the company who do this aside, it's pretty interesting. but i do disagree with not knowing and being a dumb fuck, if i found out i was related to Hitler, Pol Pot or Bieber... sometimes ignorance really is bliss

Well, the Cherokee lie could have been a cover up for the blackness. I wouldn't suspect my ancestors would have been particularly proud of such a quality.

I'd rather be just about anything than related to the Beibs. Hitler, I might be able to work through. Better a monster than a prissy little cunt who sings the pop.

Yeah, but the real question is....which part of you is black?

Da part dat like dat fried chicken 'n watamelon!

better than chicken fried in bacon grease?

My soul brother. I am 1% African, 1% Asian, 1% East Asian, and 97% Euro trash of which 35% is British. Something doesn't quite make sense because I have a great, great grandmother that is full blooded Cherokee.
