Are you that dumb? They did not describe "ethnic background", they said "I am such and such." If somebody says they are German then they should be from Germany. If you are an American citizen then you should say "I am an American." Take some pride in your country for God's sake. My ancestors came form all over Europe but I don't call myself European. The people of Europe would be very amused to read these posts where people say "I am Irish" or "I am German." The Irish and the Germans would laugh their asses off and say "Are these people really so ignorant?"

If you want to talk about ancestry then say "My ancestors came from such and such."

Mitch, my friend, I am an American. I didn't mean to offend your sensibilities. My ancestors came from England. I also forgot to mention the Norwegian ancestors on my mother's side of the family. I'm sure there is a bit of Norwegian on the English side, too, what with those horny Vikings raping and pillaging England.

Paris, BABY, I was not talking to you, I was talking to ViceKid. Not you sweetie.

 

[mitch768292]

Mitch,

What the blazes are you talking about? What is your definition of "AMERICAN"?

If you are referring to Native Americans, then of course almost all of us are foreign. Over 95% of the Citizens of this country have origins overseas. Looking again at the posters, only one poster said he was a Native American. 4 had some Native American in their blood. Only 2 said they were NOT American, 15 shared their ethnic background and 6 really did not share any ethnic background info. So what is your basis for saying, "Everybody seems to be from Europe"? Or, " Is there some shame in being an "American"?

Putting foot in mouth only leads to athletes mouth.

Live Long and Prosper,

Vicekid

If you are born in America, or are a naturalized citizen, then you are an American, and nohting else. We do not have dual or triple citizenship in this country. Check the law. I think you are the one with payer dans la bouche? The posters did not describe "ethnic background", they said "I am such and such." If somebody says they are German then they should be from Germany. If you are an American citizen then you should say "I am an American." Take some pride in your country for God's sake. My ancestors came form all over Europe but I don't call myself European. The people of Europe would be very amused to read these posts where people say "I am Irish" or "I am German." The Irish and the Germans would laugh their asses off and say "Are these people really so ignorant?"

If you want to talk about ancestry then say "My ancestors came from such and such."

"British" does not describe "ethnicity," it simply identifies a person as being a citizen of a particular nation.

Are you sure you want to go down this road with me? Better men than you have tried before and failed.

A great American

 

[scorpio]

Can we move on with the "American" thing? Cos it REALLY but REALLY bores me.

OK. Tell us what you like to do in bed?

 

[GreatLakes2]

Perhaps we can move the American discussion to a different thread. I am not judging or discounting the validity of the arguments either way, but this thread was supposed to be about learning about each other in a particular format. If there is something that comes up of interest that merits discussion, start a new thread; they are free. I just would like to see this thread remain on topic lest we scare away new members.

Just my 2 cents.

2. Was married almost 13 years before wife passed (2 years ago this April).
3. I'm a Scorpio, moon in Libra.
4. Never liked watching sports but played 3 years of football in high school. Ended up winning the Coaches Award my senior year.

6. Love to cook. Since we had snow earlier this week, made some home made chicken soup with dumplings (bisquick).
7. Used to collect comics - I have 8 boxes in the closet. Plan to go see the midnight viewing of Watchmen tonight - I have the original 12 issues of this comic and have given 1/2 dozen of the bound editions away as gifts.
8. I am a horrible speller....without spell check, I wouldn't survive in work.
9. My family has been in the US since at least the 1800's, however, my ancestory is English, Irish, French and German.
10. I just got my green belt in Tae Kwon Do last month - I can't believe my body is doing the things it is doing at my age!!!!
