I got a touch of neanderthal. That accounts for a lot of my faux-pas’.

I haven’t taken one of those tests. I identify as American.

There are many different ethnic groups that define as “American”. Technically Canada and Mexico could as well. All three countries are in North America; but Canadians and Mexicans prefer not to be considered like Americans. We all have our differences and similarities.

Not a designer breed, but a mutt like me.

Mixed heritage.

I like knowing my heritage. I don’t identify as anything, I’m just American. Mixed heritage, but all American…

I’m a Canadian with Irish and French ancestry.

Mostly Swedish with a minority English.

My dad was half Scotch, half Soda.

It helped me to find a long-lost cousin and solve the mystery of how his father disappeared.

Third generation Canadian with British and Polish ancestry.

A little Ashkenazi and a tag Neanderthal.

I’m just happy knowing that I am what I am and that’s all that I am and no relation to Popeye.

No lady, you are not Irish German and so on. You have ancestors who had those nationalities.

They could get your mother in trouble as well!
