You clearly have no sense of humor.

And wtf do you mean I'm not an Indian?
I may not have been born in 1621, but my ethnicity is still Indian.

So? I'm part German, does that make me German?

I'm also part Scotish, Canadian, and a bunch of other's that I can't think of right now.

What?

Yeah, it makes you part ethnic German, just not a German citizen.

Take Kornfrog for example.

Our mom is white, she's got Mainly Irish, and Mainly Swedish.
Matt took on most of the Swedish traits, (tall, blue eyes, blond hair(well, at least before video games anyway, now it's more of an extremely dirty blond)) and so, he tries to take after more of the Swedish than Indian.

Anyway, I had more of the Indian traits, so I try to learn more about the Cherokee people, which is my tribe.

pie, I didn't say anything about being a citizen...

*sigh*
I'm danish, but I don't try to take after the danish. lol
You're an American citizen, no matter what your ancesstors were.

THangsgiving is one of the most important Holiday's of the year!!
What other day brings so many families together to put on ten pounds as they stuff themselves in a frenzy of gluttony?

I myself am thankful for:
Chocolate Pie
Pumkin Pie
Apple Pie
TUrkey
Ham
Cranberry
Corn Muffins
Bread
and many other food items, and I give my thanks by eating them all

I'm half-german and half all the good white european nations (mainly NOT russian)

I still consider myself German. Then again I'm also related to Hitler. It's funny, when my teachers find out I'm related to Hitler they tend to all be like "...that explains it..."

are you seriously related to Hitler?
I am 75% German 25% English. Thanks Giving was the Native americans helping the pilgrims that woulrd a month later kill the men and children and rape the wemon. It is now celebrating the great american past time, football.

Yes, I'm related to Hitler.

what is thanks giving O.O .........

i heard of it but dont know what happens........

Thanksgiving is a time where we are givin thanks to God that our ancestors found this country and we are now able to live freely and that we don't have to abide by another country's ruling(unlike canada).... that is thanks giving's meaning and purpose..... now a days it's been altered to just giving thanks for the things in our lives.... most have forgot the real meaning but none the less it's still a holiday....

Canada: Hell on Earth.

Have you even been to Canada, pie?

*intercepts question*

I have

there was cheap food there, and we couldn't bring it back into america so we had to eat it all really fast when we came back over.

god had nothing to do with it

[sarcasm]Yes, because we have perfect records of that time in history.[/sarcasm]

rzgrz.....

leave canada alone...... its a great place.....

and the commonwealth shares an army.....

I'm sure we could find a holiday in England that sounds stupid too.
