What ethnicity/culture/whatever are you?

75% English, 25% Welsh...there's a weeny bit of Irish on the English side, on account of an Irish great-great-great granddad.
 
Norwegian. However, both my great-great-great-great-great-grandfathers (or something along those lines) came from Germany. One of them came to Norway around 1670, don't know about the other. On a slightly related note, we have a pretty cool German handwritten document (a contract of some sort) from the 1500s, with seals and the lot. 'Tis killer.

WTF?! That's weird. I wouldn't trust anyone with my fucking DNA though. Fuck that.
 
Yeah DNA on file is a bad thing, some people think how amazing it is that maybe someday cancer and other diseases will be predicted by DNA analysis. The next step is throwing someone in jail because their DNA shows they have a predisposition towards bank robbing and / or buggery.
 
Actually it's not as much of a conspiracy theory as it sounds, one of the reasons behind such DNA analysis was for employment screening. "Sorry, we can't hire you because in 20 years you're going to get ass cancer."
 
OK it's odd with me 'cos I'd do it on religious history I guess (otherwise both my parents were born in India, but obviously that means little with regards to ancestory). See, I'm 25% hindu and 75% muslim (ancestory ONLY please, no practice). The Hindu part originates from North India, and the Islamic part originates from Persia / Iran (true aryan). Either way, I am not semitic, I do not have any Arab blood.

To point out to Doomcifer, I would not ride a camel, but a horse. :grin:

To add, I was born and raised in the UK so that makes me a British national. So I guess that makes me Anglo-Indo with an English accent. :loco:
