  • I'm Polish

    Yes.

    I'm a proud Pole now.

    My cousin is into geneaology and is spending his spare time doing research on the family history and so on.
    Turns out my great-great-great grandfather was a merchant from Elbing in Poland.
    It's a bit strange we didn't know this before though

    Well I guess I have to start to eat a lot of cabbage and get one of them tiny Fiats.


    Has anbody else had similar identity-shaking experiences?

        A merchant, that sounds like middle class. Plus, Elbing is quite in the core of East Prussia. You might as well be of German descendance, a name would help clarifying.

            He could also be a Jew.
            Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

                Cool. I bet he did something shameful to the family name because you didn't know this. Maybe he was like an executioner or something. Or merchant sure.. selling something embarassing.

                          It's alright. I'm also part Italian so that helps.

                              Oh, please, who gives a ****. It doesn't matter who your ancestors are, the only thing that matters is where YOU live, and how do YOU feel.
