Why do Americans talk about their ethnicities like they're full-blooded ones?
Talking with a person online
No culture
Cool fanfiction
>Later on they tell me they're Italian when I brought up pizza
do they really
The thing you need to understand about Americans is that they are very, very stupid. Like, "spending all your money on magic beans" tier stupid.
moral of this story: everybody is ashamed of being american
It's true. Seen it several times before as well.
But ur ppl rlly are like dat tho
This has happened to me in real life. And sometimes there are some great mind-bend comment threads in places like reddit where a guy claims to be of a ceryain nationality and talks with authority about how 'his people' behave and what 'his country' is like, but it eventually turns out its an american who has never been to the country he's talkung about. They always give me a kek.
haha i sure hope nobody hurts and abuses her, am i right broskis?
It is true, I have a friend who always calls himself Italian. Italian-Americans in particular seem very prone to this. I say this as a muh heritage genealogy DNA testing obsessee
i heard that they are the ethnicity corresponding to the cuisine of the last fast food meal they ordered
they never do this with austria, arnie alone excepted :)
Hi I am Austrian now
There are less than a million Americans with Austrian ancestry compared to 43 million with German ancestry and 17 million with Italian ancestry
It's not really an American thing so much as it's a second+ generation immigrant thing (which nearly all Americans are). Had a girl whose parents came from Nigeria switch between calling herself British, Nigerian and Ghanian in the course of a single conversation.
>tfw no blind gf
feels bad, man
They really do though
probs more common for non-white diaspora in western countries these days. there's this thing about 'owning' something and being an authority on it on a racial basis.
Italian american culture is watching the godfather for christmas
I mean Arnie was literally born in Austria
Also hand gestures and saying “va fongool!”
