Since I have more Native American in me than anything, and I look Native American, I tend to identify that way. My grandmother is full blooded. Other ancestry is a mix of German, Irish, English

I am a weird mixture.
Dad's side is English,Welsh,Spanish and Korean.
Mom's side is English,Croatian,First Nations,Hispanic.
Really don't identify with anything. Most people that see me just assume I am white,which well I partially am.

White English by way of Spanish and Danish descent. By I don't identify with any of that, it's all an arbitrary fluke of geography.

Ashkenazi (aka Eastern European) Jewish, mostly from Russia, Belarus, Poland, and Germany, with maybe some Austrian and Romanian. Nationality is American.
I can pass for white and most people here consider me white.
I'd love to try doing one of those DNA tests to see the specifics.

I refer to myself as half-English, half-German, but I also have quite a bit of Scottish and Ashkenazi Jewish in me, as well as small amounts of African, Native American, Scandinavian, and Mesopotamian. My family members often describe themselves as "Heinz 57."

On topic, but I was reading a National Geographic about homo sapiens migration paths and pretty much every single person that's part of a non-African ethnicity can eventually trace their heritage back to one of two migratory waves out of Africa tens of thousands of years ago. There was also a lot of cross-breeding with Neanderthals in Eurasia as the two human species could mate and produce offspring.
Anyone who isn't purely of African descent could have up to 2% Neanderthal DNA in them.

As far as I know I’m white and Native American, but I’ve been mistaken for everything from Latino, Italian, Turkish, and Middle Eastern depending on my level of tan. I guess that I’ll eventually have to do one of those DNA tests to see where exactly the milkman slid into my family tree. lol

White British. Technically I'm half Italian but in terms of identity, it doesn't feel a big part of who I am.

American citizen. German primarily ethnically. My mom was even a citizen until a few years ago of Germany. Also parts Swedish and some English back there (I’m a Mayflower descendant). Probably some other stuff too, but I am closest to the German stuff since I get that from my Mom and she was born in Europe. The Swedish/English I get from my dad, but I am much more removed from that culture as I am less close to that side of the family and they have also been in this country forever (see Mayflower descendant).

Hispanic. I'm technically half-white because of my birth dad, but my Mom is of a very Hispanic family so that's what I identify as.

The details of my life are quite inconsequential...
Alright, very well. My father was a relentlessly self improving Belgian boulangeure with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. my mother was a French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.
My father would womanizer, he would drink. He'd make outrageous claims, like he ìnvented the question mark. Sometimes hed accuse chestnuts of being lazy. It was the general sort of malaise that geniuses possess and the insane lament.
My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon. Luge lessons. In the spring we would make meat helmets. When I was insolent I would be put in a burlap sack and be beaten with reeds. Pretty standard stuff. When I was 13 i was given my first scribe. When I was 16 i had testicles ritualistically shaved by a Zoroastrian named Vilmer. There's nothing quite like a shorn scrotum., it's rather breathtaking.
When I was 23 I graduated from Evil medical school. want to be a triple threat. A singer, a dancer...
Ok in all seriousness, Canucklehead of German, Italian and Irish descent.

I'm adopted, so technically I have no f***ing clue other then "white". Usually go with Irish because my dad is of an Irish background and my mum swears that I was adopted from a young Irish family in Winnipeg but she might be completely talking out her ass.

Keep an eye out for sales and give one of those tests a try. Genes for Good is a free one, you do some medical surveys then they eventually send you a DNA test. The results on the Genes for Good website weren't helpful (Mine just said "100% European") but you can upload the raw data to other services like GED Match which gave a more detailed result for me. genesforgood.sph.umich.edu/
