What are your guys ethnic background?

[K2]

What are your guys ethnic background?

mine is candian-chinese... err.. i guess thats how u say it.. born in canada.. but chinese/asian... heh



lets see what cultural background rules GotApex...

[Rain]

Just about 100% Scottish. what isn't Scottish is British, though I don't claim it. :D

[jase71]

Majority Irish, with a little Scandinavian tossed in.

And a tiny bit of Brit, but like Rain, the amount is small enough to keep me from blowing myself up with a car bomb.

[irwin]

chinese
100% :P

[ChrisMG187]

hmm, funny wee talked about what Chinese canadians should be called in school today. We settled on Chinadians (chi-NAY-dee-uns).

Anyways... I'm 25% british, part irish, part cherokee indian, part jewish, part danish, part german, part scandinavian, part FRENCH (hate to say it though...) and i think that's about it.

[i6s1]

Mostly German, the rest British.

[LPMiller]

51Percent Italian, 49percent Swedish/norweigish/danish, then a wee bit english/scotish/irish...

[AWM]

riiibbbbbiiiiiiit. French, white, and proud.

[oblongmelon]

Italian. Pure guinea all the way through.

[Hiro]

100% pure white guy. :D

[g222leav]

mostly chinese, but i think an old great grandmother was cambodian...so that would make me 1/8 cambodian...if that's possible.

[theHNIC]

That would go for me, too. Last time I checked I was black

[hapoo]

Phew
Once this Black dude suddenly became white... and female :eek2: I think he was a singer.

[Memo]

I'm a border hopper :)

[OC]

I'm 1/4 Irish, 1/4 American Indian, and 1/2 mutt. Thank you grand-dad.

your way of saying that you don't know?

[Edited by m0j0 on 05-01-2001 at 09:06 PM]

[The Happy Squirrel]

50% Italian, 25% Polish 20% French 5% misc and 1% other

[Tuvi]

no, i know what i am. i just think its funny to say pure bred honkey.

[Loki]

Portuguese mostly with a little german rolled in.

[welfareloser]

50% german
25% native american (12.5% north am., 12.5% central am., to be nitpicky)
25% who knows what (lost contact with that branch of the fambly when my mom was 3)

i am beginning to suspect that my dad is actually of german-JEWISH descent, tho it would take more time and energy than i care to devot to the task to find out fo sho.

[m0j0]

50% deutsch
50% guamanian

and i think i am white. but maybe others don't. i don't think i care. i don't think i like the "white" idea, cuz we all came from somewhere. maybe the white came from whitelandia or something?

[welfareloser]

hmm... you sure "guamanian" is real a word? sounds like an offensive slang epithet to me. show a little self-respect...

[TheLoneGunman]

Jew-boy!

As if it wasn't obvious from my political posts (or the size of my nose)

[BADFlSH]

100% white bread right here! I'm a cracker! For those looking for something more specific, I'm mostly German with a little Swedish mixed in.

[xsiled]

i am but a figment of my heros imagination

[m0j0]

well, i'm bad company...and i won't deny it. bad company til the day i die.

[rum]

100% Indian.
Thank you, come again.

[IrishSS]

25% Scottish, the other 75%, take your pick from any euorpean country...

Umm i'm just an European Hopper(surname)(not sure exact locations)
And half Korean.

[cruelpupet]

I am...

50% Italian

at least...

3.125% German
3.125% Irish


the rest is divided up among English, Irish, Scottish, German, in unknown values.

[m0j0]

well, i am still half german and half guamanian, but in light of a recent post i am thinking of converting to native american....er...so-called native american

[welfareloser]

guamanian... (giggle) say it three times fast. now try to come up with something that rhymes with it. it's just one of those words that strikes me funny... like farfrompoopin (you know... the german word for constipation...)

[welfareloser]

not that being from guam and being a constipated german have anything to do with each other. no offense intended.

[m0j0]

unless you eat too many mangos

[welfareloser]

mmmm, yum... mangoes. mangos? mango's!

yep.

or maybe it's just "mango," like "deer" is plural. i would look it up if i didn't suffer from dyslexia, ad/hd, and severe apathy.

[gwilks98]

I'm not sure about the percentages...

The last name is english...but my granddad's great granddad was adopted and the church where the records were kept burnt down.

We know I've got Kraut and Frog in me, along with a little Cherokeean on both sides. I think there's some English, but who knows. Damned undereducated ancestors...

[GraingerGuy]

Chinese American! Awwwwwyeah!! :)

I am confused...

Perhaps their was either a slur or a joke, but I didn't get either.

Please enlighten me so I can either be amused or annoyed.

[hapoo]

naw, forget about it. after re reading it, It didn't make much sense to me either. I just didnt' bother to remove it :)

Arian...I mean...German...oops. I always make that mistake. I'm also a mix of a few other european nations, but those aren't important.

[topane]

Very well, where should I begin? My father was a relentlessly self improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15 year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.

I've actually seen an Indian with blue eyes.
They were saying in Sociology class that Indians are considered Caucasians...Imagine that.

I would be the same except I claim 52% Italian! After all, all the ladies swoon all around me and well with LPM...they sort-of run away.

[ironchef]

how's the line go.. hmm... "13 inches of pure-bred louisiana black snake" or something to that effect :)

yer typical european mut - mostly irish, then scottish, then german, then.. er.. uh.. well.. my rear end is french. and that's all they get.

[g222leav]

i'm wondering how you guys do your math to come up with these percentages

[zenbooty]

Mostly French and Irish, with some German and a teensy bit of English. I think that just about covers all the liquors.

But deep inside, there's gotta be a little bit of soul-brother fighting to get out!

[Ice-9]

75% German
12.5% Irish
12.5% Misc/Don't know

Explains my predilection for German cars.

although.. my only problem is that i dont have blue eyes.

[StonedWheat]

100% tong yun (chinese)

[m0j0]

2 thoughts for stoned wheat:

1- don't steal passwird's girl
2- love your sig

[ArkiStan]

Hmm not as many Asians as I thought there would be...And the few that are here are all Chinese. When you say Chinese do you mean mainland Chinese, Cantonese or Taiwanese?? The latter two can also be considered "Chinese" right? (well, duh...what am I even saying?)

I'm 100% Korean. And when I say 100%, I mean 100%. I have nothing at all to do with this country, except that I go to school here. Maybe that's quite a lot, but I'm an alien, a legal one though. I'm no immigrant, no citizenship, no greencard, no nothing. Make that 110%, pure bred yellow ass, kimchi stinkin', barbecue beefin', Korean.

"Holden: Ah, c'mon, that's a bunch of Horse S**t! Lando Calrissian was a black guy. You know? He got to fly the Millenium Falcon!
Hooper X: Who said That?
I did. Lando Calrissian is a positive role model in the realm of science fiction/fantasy.
Hooper X: F**k Lando Calrissian, uncle tom n***er! Always some white boy gotta invoke the holy trilogy. Bust this, those movies are about how the white man keeps the brother man down, even in a galaxy far far away. Check this s**t. You've got Cracker Farmboy, Luke Skywalker, Nazi Poster Boy, blonde hair, blue eyes, and then you've got Darth Vader, the blackest brother in the galaxy, Nubian god.
Banky: What's a nubian?
Hooper X: Shut the f**k up! Now, Vader, he's a spiritual brother, down with the force and all that good s**t. Then this cracker, Skywalker, gets his hands on a lightsaber, and the boy decides he's going to run the F**king universe. Gets a whole clan of whites together and they go and bust up Vader's hood, the death star. Now what the f**k do you call that?
Banky: Intergalactic Civil War?
Hooper X: Gentrification! They trying to drive out the black element to make the galaxy, quote unquote, safer for white folks. And Jedi is the most insulting installment because Vader's beautiful black visage is sullied when he pulls off his mask to reveal a feeble, crusty, old white man. They trying to tell us that deep inside, we all wants to be white!
Banky: Well...isn't that true?
Hooper X: Black Rage! I'll kill every last cracker I set my mother-f**king eyes on!"

"Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery*. My mother was a fifteen-year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy... the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess in the insane lament. My childhood was typical... summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds... pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it."

And for the record..."a penchant for buggery" means an affinity for anal sex...

LMAO - this is actually one of the funnies threads I've read in a while :)

and, just for the record, I'm a stud. :D

actually, I kinda rememer vaguely that my ancestors were from the norweigen / scottish area, but i don't really care. I'm white, i don't tan well, and i've got sickly-white legs, cause i never wear shorts, cause there's too many darned bugs here in Oklahoma, cause it's always so humid. And i ride a motorcycle, and riding a motorcycle in shorts is dummer than riding w/o a helmet.

thanks you please drive through.

[Chinpoko_Mon]

100% Cantonese.. but I speak both Cantonese and Mandarin...
I think it'll be more accurate to say that I'm Chinese, since Cantonese and Mandarin are just dialects of the Chinese language. I think that's right.... right?

In the wise words of Monty Python:
[talking]
The world today seems absolutely crackers,
With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high.
There's fools and idiots sitting on the trigger.
It's depressing and it's senseless, and that's why...

[singing]
I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're always friendly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
There's nine hundred million of them in the world today.
You'd better learn to like them; that's what I say.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They come from a long way overseas,
But they're cute and they're cuddly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese food.
The waiters never are rude.
Think of the many things they've done to impress.
There's Maoism, Taoism, I Ching, and Chess.

I. Like. Chinese. (tap-dancing in the background)
I. Like. Chinese.
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin, and yang-ese.

I like Chinese thought,
The wisdom that Confucious taught.
If Darwin is anything to shout about,
The chinese will survive us all without any doubt.

So, I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please.

All together.

[verse in Chinese]
Wo ai zhongguo ren (I like Chinese)
Wo ai zhongguo ren (I like Chinese)
Wo ai zhongguo ren (I like Chinese)
Ni hao ma, ni hao ma, ni hao ma, zaijien!
(How are you, how are you, how are you, goodbye!)

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
Their food is guaranteed to please,
A fourteen, a seven, a nine, and lychees.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin, and yang-ese.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees...
