I have yet to see Turbonegro and I guess it will be quite hard to accomplish as it's rumored that they really want to call it quits. sigh.

Oh yeah, Basti, for the record, I am part Norwegian and part Swedish.


Lot of inner battles there...


I think this was just mentioned on Mad Men.

Peggy Olsen was looking for a new roommate, and this was one of their first questions when they met. Unfortunately, they were from different nationalities, so when Peggy told her mom, she lied about it.

J2J do you have Scandinavian blood? I almost assumed everyone here had a grand parent named Alfred or Hilda.


Um, mine is a little confusing. I've always believed I was 50% Norwegian(Dad being 100%), and like 50% Irish, but the last year or so I've done more digging after learning some interesting facts about my dad's side of the family, which I haven't really been close to, and there's a slight possibility that he might not be 100% Norwegian. Then looked into my mom's side and it's a little muddled as well.

So I think I'm like 50% Norwegian, 25% Irish, and 25% English. My mom claims there's German in there, but with the digging I've done I can't figure out where from, so that's what I stand by.

Want to stereotype me off that? I drink a lot, can't cook, have bad teeth, sail boats, fight, and I'm HUGELY ripped with blonde hair.

But in reality I'm like the opposite of that, except the drinking thing. :-)

I'm like 45% norwegian, then the rest is a massive mix of euro nonsense, like all the countries I think. My mom's side of the family has no regard for cultural history, totally slutted it up with every country they could think of. So I just balance it out by telling everybody I'm Cherokee

Minute of research it looks like, figured that might have changed, but I guess basti is full on German.

Can't be too careful. things can change quickly sometimes

Me = 100% Norwegian on my mother's side. Father's side is not as clear (no good geneology) but it's mostly English and German. So I'll go with 50% Norwegian, 25% German, 25% English.

yeah I feel like I've changed into 97.52% German and 2.48% Equatorial-Guinean. I've heard they have dangerous dragons down there and I love dragons.
