Seriously, what's your problem? Calling people Yanks is fecking rude. You're not better than anybody. Is there something wrong to be an American?

I shouldn't be feeding the troll but sometimes I just need to laugh at ignorance.
Lmao. Yep, you and your mother think you're Irish. I guess Australians are now trying to be like yanks. You should head back to Ireland to discover your ancestral roots. Just like the guy from Boston. No wonder he's getting pissed off, everyone from Boston is obviously Irish. Even though they all speak English.. And have English surnames. Oh, and they're all German as well.

You must be Irish too if you have all this knowledge of Irish history & genealogy.

Knowing that yanks from Boston call themselves Irish because of their grandparents or even more absurdly great grandparents+ doesn't mean I'm an expert about geneaology. I'm simply pointing out that yanks are all stupid.

Scottish yank sympathiser. What's your ancestry then? You're probably French-Scots-Irish considering you love of yanks.

Nothing but Scottish as far as tracing can go. Wildly indifferent.

Then what's the problem? Yanks think they're Scottish because some guy and his wife immigrated 200 years ago. You'd probably like to twang their members considering you're defending them.

It's just an accident of geography. Nationality doesn't actually mean anything. Borders are made up and don't actually define who we are.

And you know this because you live up north? Where? Boston?

I knew it. You should move to Canada. Because in your eyes they're more Scottish there than in Scotland. Mind you, they're French and German too.
