Which ethnic side to your bloodline do you identify with the most?

It seems like everyone here is of some german-anglo-saxon or Irish descency, with native and indigenous blood mixed in throughly, be it Maori, North American First Nations, Puerto Rican, or Jewish. (Havanagheela! Yeeehaw!)

I can relate to that, because i do believe it is my Irish side that prevents the Maori from throwing you in a slow cooker...pokes wux...hmmmm....about 3 hours i reckon Beware, young lady... a bowlful of me now, and the cholesterol content will kill you within five hours tops. If not the cholesterol, then your teeth will fall out due to the high sugar content (diabetes), and if not that, then my aresenic content. (In Hungary mothers in poorer families gave arsenic-licks to their young to suck on. Arsenic never leaves your body -- at least not through the nic on your arse.) Yeah...i reckon you'd taste funny

I identify more with my Italian side, which unfortunately happens to be my dads side.

Which ethnic side to your bloodline do you identify with the most? I am not sure I identify ethnically with any of them really. I was taught more the korean clothes foods heirarchy, but raised in the United States. Ethnically confused???
