I did one of those mail in DNA test and found out I'm like over 50% data breach

Americans love to answer the question "where are you from?" with an ingredients list.

My lineage is German, Irish, and Scandanavian, but my stomach is 100% Mexican.

Basing your preferred genetic heritage on how much you like a TV show. Smh.

American Italians have embraced the pop culture caricature of themselves and become it.

Americans when they find out they're 1/823th of a footballfield finnish: "OMG I AM SO DIVERSE! AND NOW A CERTIFIED MINORITY" Americans when they try to do finnish things: "Yeah no this is fake, its not possible for anyone to survive in 230f"

I'm 25% Finnish (Grandmother)

I enjoy saunas

Is 25% enough to enjoy other Finnish things?

230? Holy fuck, I'm happy to accept bitch-hood for not being able to handle that. How do you breathe?

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You throw water on the oven to cool it down enough so you don't die. You need to try it.

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Is the air temperature 230f or the stove?

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Why would the stove be so cold?

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Idk I'm super confused. The hottest I can handle a sauna being is just below 200, and not for long enough to really enjoy it. 185 is my sweet spot

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 days ago

My family prefers 110c but i prefer around 90c as i want to relax and not tryhard.

Y'all actually know your ethnicity? I know i'm white and that's about it.

[–] General_Effort@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Americans use ethnicity as a synonym for race. That's not formally correct. Wikipedia has it thusly:

An ethnicity or ethnic group is a group of people who identify with each other on the basis of perceived shared attributes that distinguish them from other groups.

If you don't know your ethnicity, then you don't have one. Except you do have one. White American certainly fits the definition.

I know i’m white

I'm over 90% Italian, it was a very small town full of my relatives, that should pretty much explain everything without having to go into detail.

My family was actually apart of making the Soparanos 💀

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!
