Quote: Dolly Dagger @ October 22 2009, 6:22 PM BSTYes, so I believe. After researching my family tree I've discovered I am in fact a genetic mongrel.
For a while I thought I was a bit French, because family tradition had it that my mum's maiden name derived from a French name and the family were Huguenots fleeing France.
But my mum recently bought a historical analysis of the name and it turned out it was bog-standard German.
Ah well, now I'm English (not by the rules of Nazi-Nick, though).

Good, isn't it?

You certainly have a very English sense of humour, dear. By which I mean you have a sense of humour.

Bloody hell, everyone's at it! We're you not given the upbringing then?
Oh shit, my post count! What shall I do, what shall I doooo?!

My grandparents were living in Germany in the 1930s and fled to England, leaving a lot of the rest of their families either in Germany or back in Lithuania. For whatever reason, they felt it unwise to be open about being Jews when they arrived and changed their surname to an English one. They didn't really practice any religion anyway and my Mum and her siblings were basically brought up as good old C of E Christians. A couple of my cousins have "embraced" their religious ancestry, but not I.

They must've done that when I was briefly unconscious during my National Insurance Number interview (you're only properly here if you're able to claim benefits). I *did* feel a bit funny afterwards.
Oh, and .

Oh but it's in your DNA, all that Jew blood causing so unkosherly through your veins.
Can't you hear those drums? Those semitic, irresistible, yiddening, maddening drums.
They're playing Hava Nagila just for you (well you me and Suzy Cocktease).
I do tend to shout "Jew hater!" at my foreskin every time I see it.

My German ancestors did the same thing because of anti-german feelings I suppose.

Do you truly want to be ashamed of showing your dinkle to the All Mighty on the day of judgement.
