With you around, it has all the rawr it can handle!
Bingo! And what's not Scottish is German, so I'm doubly homocidal/genocidal. :D** spoiler omitted **
Eh, don't mind me. Don't mean to rain on your parade. I'm just grumpy. Sorry. There are plenty of stereotypes around: hardheaded Dutch, cowardly French, etc. Scots got no corner on stereotyping.Well, since you're Scottish, obviously you're grumpy. :D
<Ducks>
*suddenly pays attention*
wait what?
Treppa,

*ignores the homocidal/genocidal part*
Treppa,

Speaking of Germans, I just read an article about how German beer gardens are the new up and coming trend in American cities(like Irish pubs for the last few decades). I find that kinda cool since so many Americans have German ancestry yet no one acknowledges it.
the Biergarten is the best invention ever. of course again made by the Bavarians *shakes fist southward* but they have spread all over germany by now
Her half-German what?
Treppa,
your half german?
*grumples*
Treppa,
you are half german?
;-)
Black Irish?
My grandparents probably came off the boat from the Old Country about the same time as Shiny's greats - between the wars? So I'm half-and-halfish.
oh, just german grandparents?
where are they from?have you been over here?

My Scottish grandparents came over between the wars. My German forebears came over in the sixteenhundredsomethings! I believe we've got a little Swiss married in there too, but they stuck to the Pennsylvania Dutch country for a long time, so we're pretty much German on my Dad's side.
I've been to Germany a couple of times and love it! We visited the south, mostly little towns but did get Munich in.
Mmmmm.....Biergarten
Biergarten in Art:
wiki1wiki2
wiki3
wiki4
and typical Biergarten food:
Wurstsalat with Bretzel and dark wheat beer or
Obatzter (cheese butter)

I'm half Polish. For years, I've been praying that the Eike of my grandfather was some weird misspelling of an Irish name, but it turns out it's German. So, I'm at least a quarter that. So a quarter of me is always trying to conquer the other half of me.
My grandmother, we have nooooo idea. We know she was born in Stroudsburg (my hometown and my mom's) and her parents were born there, but we can't find much out prior to that. I'd like to believe we came fully-formed from Zeus' forehead sometime before the civil war, but there's no record, so I can't prove it.
Mais oui je le suis.AH, no comment on Jess' comment.Are you FRENCH?
Ah don' hol' nao trick wif dat Frenk stoof.

cool, the south especally Munich and the Alps are the classic tourist route - and not without reason! I love Munich.
But the North Sea Coast or the Lakes in the North east and the big Forests in the Middle Moutains are quite nice, too. (especally Hessia, of course, I live right in the heart of Grimm Feary Tale County)

Eike is a rare north german name, there once was a famous football goaly Eike Immel.
and we don't try to conquer poland anymore, because that's wrong.
I am assuaging the garden munchies with chemicals this very afternoon. Weedol to the rescue. Suck on that, bindwind. This is war.Now your garden will be really, really hungry...The weed ... the weed ...
Left the garden in perfectly acceptable and weed-free condition.
why didn't you just use
Can I just say I am a Cajun Mutt. It's easier that way.
I think I qualify as an American, due to the amount of mix. ;) (English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, French, German, Bohemian, Native American, etc).

3 grandparents were Dutch (though we suspect, because of the name, that the Lobezoos were at one time French Huguenots that fled to the Netherlands), and one is more of a typical American mish-mash, with larger amounts of Danish and Scottish blood than all the other randomness.
I'm Welsh-Irish.
On my mom's side, more Welsh than Irish, and on my dad's side more Irish than Welsh....so it evens out to about half of each. So basically I'm a Celt. :)

Cousin! My Dad's parents came over to the PA Dutch area in the 15-1600s (Swiss/German/Dutch). My mom, well she's half Irish half Scottish. Lots of other mixes in my Dad's family tree.
Do you pronounce it Celt or Celt?I'm Welsh-Irish.

My family came from somewhere in northwest Germany. I forget the name of the village but my dad and I tracked it down. We could not even fathom how to pronounce it at the time.
Oh no you don't need it. Go ahead give it to me it is such a weight off your shoulders. I am doing you a favor.
I don't know if I can! The Superunknown is trying to take it!
At first I thought I was alive in the Superunknown and then I was told to roll out for it, with all these changes I'm not sure if I have my SOUL! or not.
I do know if I've got it I may, in fact, be supah bad. WAhaoo!

Hey my 401k's in the crapper, so I figured a little Satanic sacrifice would work well. >=D
Heck, who am I kidding, I don't got no 401K. I just like sacrificing souls while listening to Soundgarden and benching mad weights.
Stuttering, cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes far too long for snakes
In my shoes, a walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send Hell away
No one sings like you anymore
Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come

I am particularly fond of 4th of July and Mailman but it is just straight up a damn good album.

We might be related? I think both of us have good reason to be afraid.
