Mine just reassigned a lot of Great Britain to Scotland/Ireland, which is a bit odd since I’m only an 8th Irish. I think differentiating between those two is kinda murky though. Only other thing it did is delete some low confidence and wrap it in to Sweden, for some reason.

My estimate changed from 99% European to 100% European. 😎

Yeah the 1% jewish thing seems to be disappearing for everyone, imagine that? <:really:453005408064241674>

Yup I lost mine too....

So glad it's gone...

I'm finally part of the 💯 club. 💪🏻

My 0.1% ashkenazi went bye felicia too!

I guess they’ve basically decided to stop trolling. I know someone who got .1% SE Asian which made absolutely no sense

Looks like Ancestry.com was #110. <:teehee:381917632359563264>

Maybe they were sued for not providing the service they were paid for...failure to deliver

My best work

Good ole' Talcum X. 👌🏻

@NITRODUBS that is such great placement

I'm pretty suspicious of Ancestry. They just updated their results (which they have done a number of times) but the results seem strange. My wife whose family is German (and her old results put her at 31% German her highest percentage) now they have her at like 70% English and 10 percent German. Our whole family has seen the same kind of heavy skews toward English. I was majority French now I'm 60% English and 12 French. It seams weird. Also some low confidence categories that we saw verified by looking at the family tree are gone all together.

Yeah, it is strange how much the results changed.

My Scandinavian parts are half what they were and my English (Scottish to be more accurate) went up.

And the "Western Europe" (my mom is at least part French considering her maiden name) is mostly gone.

I’ll never shake that 1% North African

any excuse to get rid of ypipo history

all universitites should be defunded and turned into free/ low cost housing for veterans

oooof

she swore on the quran

Minnesota... what're you doing

I feel like I'm the Ancient Aliens guy asking the audience "is cuckoldry like this possible? yes it is."

Minessota is basically going to be "New Somalia" in a few decades.

It was already new Sweden

Both old Sweden and new Sweden will become new Somalia

We’ll have to call Minnesota new New Somalia

yeah, those Swedes sure seem to love their Somalis. 😒

they won't even screen them for health problems

which is truly baffling

According to the new Ancestry results, I have a 2% chance of attracting Somalis to my area.

(makes me glad they're not leaking over into this state)

yeah, its insane they aren't even vetting these people for diseases. 😕

how is not wanting your country infested with disease "racist" (which is I'm sure why they aren't doing it)?

They are bringing diseases here that have been gone for over a century.

4% for me :(( I don’t think I have any Swedish in my though, even though my mom’s grandmother was from Denmark.

Welcome to Minneapolis! Home of the only Onchocerciasis in the Western Hemisphere!

"River Blindness". Sounds lovely.

if i'm <2% from asia minor, does that mean i can get free housing in sweden?

@Asatru Artist - MD look up “guinea worm” if you want a real kicker

Kinda graphic, so I’m not going to post it here

You can’t pull it out or you’d break it, so you have to slowly wind it around a stick- a little more each day, until you get it out.

Half of the time I go out, somalis find me and ask to live in my house. All makes sense now

It’s thought the Caduceus, that medical symbol you’ve seen a billion times, might come from the process of extracting a guinea worm.

Wow!

More and more politicians are coming out with this rhetoric

Salvini & Orban!

now if only we could get our own to speak up

at least rand paul is condemning involvement in syria

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN They're already in an alliance.

They need more help in international nationalism.

these days, you're either an international nationalist or a globalist

My Ancestry results also skewed heavily towards English but in my case that actually makes perfect sense

And is in line now with my LivingDNA results, so I'm inclined to think it's accurate

an Anglo conspiracy is afoot, methinks.

I mean, it makes sense. Anyone whose family has been in America for a long time is probably going to have some English in them

It'd be pretty hard not to

Yeah I’m still majority beady

Be awsome for Trump to step in on Hungarys side with their battle with the E.U. Someone should start a petition.

I’m also pretty sure that German/Irish census data responses are kinda inaccurate, because their self reported. So, if you don’t know about your heritage, you’ll likely just respond with whatever you’ve been told (which can be wildly inaccurate, like the Cherokee princess story.)

I’d wager the majority of old-stock Americans are mostly English, with some other stuff in there as well.

Not that any of this matters now. No matter what boat you came over on, we’re in the same boat now.

I've noticed a ton of people in the South weirdly think they're Irish. I have no idea why because there actually aren't many Irish people in the South, currently or historically. Southerners are overwhelmingly English and Scottish.

@ThisIsChris I’d wager English, but I’m not certain.

Yeah, where did the name Scots-Irish come from?

@Sherlock I’ve met like 4 billion people who think they’re Irish and Cherokee.

The Scots-Irish are Scots who lived in Ireland.

So have I haha

It's strange

I think that's part of the issue. A lot of Southerners are Scots-Irish and I guess they think their Scottish names are Irish names

From the English plantation of Ulster, begun during the Tudor era. Ulster (northern Ireland,) was considered a pretty backwater area, so the English decided to pacify it by importing a lot of Scots to settle there.

A lot of those Scots later dipped and moved to the Carolinas, etc.

This is likely where the “irish southerner” thing came from- they had ancestors from Ireland, they just weren’t ethnically irish.

The “Cherokee blood” thing comes from family folk legend and owo Muh native blood woo.

You’ll notice it’s literally always Cherokee. No one ever claims to be Creek or Muskogee or anything.

The great irony is that the Scots invaded Caledonia during the collapse of Western Rome

Yeah my grandfather insists we're part Cherokee to this day even though me and my dad have both had DNA tests and both had 0% Native American DNA

@TylerHess yeah, Scottish Gaelic is actually descended from Middle Irish. The Picts were there before them.

I was quite disappointed to discover I was 0.4% Indian. Some dalliance in the 17th century. F-ing thot.

@Sherlock same, although “Sioux” because his father was from Missouri. I looked- surprise, he was from Coventry.

Lol

There doesn’t seem to be that family folk history thing in the north, for some reason.

You never meet someone from Massachusetts claiming to be “part Narragansett”

It's quite strange

Maybe our grandfathers just grew up lusting after hot Indian chicks in cowboy movies

idk

I wonder who produced those cowboy movies

maybe the Cherokee girls just like white guys...

Well Mexican ones definitely do, for whatever that's worth

I think it’s probably out of the deep seated desire everyone has to belong to a group of people. Since “white southerner” has become demonized, they go with the strange “Cherokee” angle.

Incidentally, my grandmother’s husband was actually a Cherokee (you can tell by looking at my half-aunts and uncles.) He uh. Got drunk and beat her a lot, so she remarried a white guy from Texas (my grandfather.)

Nice guy

You have my mom and her sister who look incredibly Caucasian, then I have an aunt who looks like she came from one of those velvet paintings with the moon and wolves and dream catchers etc.

The “drunk Indian” stereotype is apparently quite true, unfortunately.

I have some distant cousins who got with blacks, but otherwise my family is huwhite af

I think I remember reading that natives literally lack the enzyme that lets them break down alcohol.
