Born and bred in Australia, so I'm a binge drinking, easy-going sloth who often punches above his weight yet often manages to come out on top regardless.
My mum's a pom, but my dad's an Assyrian. Its an ethnic minority in the middle east, at the moment mostly around Iraq and Iran. There were quite a few in Turkey until the Turk decided to give genocide a go.

Nothing special except the assumption that I'm a Prius-driving hippie(which I don't) and smoke pot.(which I don't)

I'm English, but i share Irish heratige on my Dad's side, who's grandfarther was an Irish immigrant who settled in Liverpool.
Your dad sounds awesome, =] if I knew someone like that I'd ask them to kindly dress their respective parts and yell "BOING" every time they enter the room.keybird said:
I'm Australian, Polish, Russian on my dad's side, Danish, Russian, German (I think) on my mothers side. Needless to say I'm quite confused and wish I had a father to teach me to say "Its a me!"
Australian, English, Irish (I think there may be Scottish) and Polynesian...you're not alone. And out of all of them, I am the a throw back Irishman, who is born and raised in Australia...reside in Queensland and cannot go out in the sun without packing on the sunscreen. My sister got the Polynesian...***** -_-Scythax said:
Anglo-Celtic-Gaelic-Welsh
And, apparantly, I'm descended from Finnish roots (circa 1100s)
My Mum comes from near Brighton, my Dad from Dundee. I have an interesting outlook on things as a result, though god help us all whenever we start arguing over the pronounciation of Scone.
I also have a lot of Peruvian culture, as I spent a month there last year in the summer. I picked up the "Life can be hard, but so is a bar of chocolate" outlook on life there
and I LOVE ponchos

I'm about fifth generation Australian, so I don't really have a non-Australian cultural background as anything we did have would have faded over time ... oh, but I am European (Irish, Scottish, English, German, that whole region), so I guess the friendly drinking of my parents is Irish, my love of tea and stuff is mildly english, my ... okay I'm out of things to relate to my heritage in steroetypical ways.
I was born in southern California. My dad is Egyptian (We go back almost 100 years!), and my mom is Mexican (Only about 4 generations on her side.) I like to call myself Egypxican.
I'm american, & since the current state of my culture is embarassing (which you'd be painfully aware of if you've seen our reality shows), I'm gonna go with Bill Maher & claim I'm Swiss.
Mixture of 6 different backgrounds (English, French, German, Irish, Scottish, Kickapoo) which makes me the jack of all trades and master of none.
And pasty pasty pale, but that's a result of staying inside all the time.
