Yeah, was shocked to discover I had zero Native American in me.. also shocked that I had zero Jewish in me either. Considering I grew up with always being called a Jew and even faced some hatred over it, although most of the Jewish women at my school had a thing for me too.. some of them pretty hot.. lol..

Did you happen to have any pygmy ancestory?

No. Lol.

I pretty much got 97% Northern European with a scant races of Northern African, Southeast Asian and southern European.

Yay! It's so fun finding out your ancestry DNA results. I've done the 23 and Me kit, but I want to do the Ancestry one. I feel like maybe theirs is more accurate. I waited about 7 or 8 weeks for mine but it came back that the sample had failed, so I had to do it again. The second time around was successful and it did come back very quickly, like they put a rush on it. Lol

I hope you share you results! I looove finding out about everyone's DNA results. Genealogy is fascinating.

My results shocked me as they showed I was about 95% English-Irish. I always believed it was mostly Scottish (although I'm sure there's some Scottish in there somewhere. That's a given), but it was Irish. The rest was German and Native American.
Except when I talk your ear off about this stuff :D

When there's a high percentage of Western European you can know there's most likely a variety of countries in there the farther back you go. I know my mother's line is Swiss rather than German (her maiden name is often considered German). I've also discovered a tiny bit of French in there as well. But it is primarily English-Irish-German-Native American.

Well, we were probably feuding Viking clans back in the days of old, soo why should I tolerate listening about your heritage?

We have a lot of Polish influence in our family too. Not sure if Poland is considered east or west Europe.

Mkay. I'm just going to call you a gypsy from now on because it's apparent your ancestry goes back to just about everywhere. lol

Yeah, I'm surprised by this, too. You could definitely pass as someone with some Jewish ancestry.

Yeah although, I've noticed English people and Jewish people can kind of look similar.

My little sister was always accused of being a Jew all the time too, my older sister had my father's more Germanic looks so I guess she was spared any misdirected Jew hatred.

Reminds me of this guy on this podcast I listened to a few months back. He was one of the major writers for the Simpsons. He also looked pretty Jewish. He made a joke that made me laugh out loud at work when he said to the host "Yeah, I look pretty Jewish.. sometimes I like to tell people I paid my way though college by modeling for hate literature.".

I will definitely share my results when I get them!

And @CodyFaith and @TheGirlOnFire y'all should do it!

I think we need to have a thread specifically for this and we post our DNA test results. :D

I hear there's a new movie about the life of Mr. Fred Rogers in production. What I remember most about that show is how endlessly irritated I'd get watching that show when he'd called me his neighbour because he was some guy on a tv set in Pittsburgh who didn't live nearly close enough to me to qualify for that. :ahah:

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. :D

Man, I find the most obscure movies to watch on YouTube sometimes. Creepy, sour looking technicolor BBC film from the 70s with completely out of place harpsichord background music?

Sure, let's do this.
