Epic is "Irish", like 50% of Americans, compared to the other 50% of Americans - who are "Italian".

Both my parents and all of my other family were born and grew up in Ireland.

 

[epic73]

Oh yeah that got on my nerves when I was in Canada.

Here in Peru we support our NT no matter how shit we are or become.

In Canada, if Canada is shit at football they go to support Italy, Germany and Spain. If Canada becomes world class, they will say they were "always Canadian".

Try coming to America.

So you have an Irish family, that's great!

Give him a break Ste. He's saying he's Irish. Not German.

He's supporting 2 shit teams. You'd think he goes through a lot.

It could be worse though, could be Scotland.

 

[Stagat]

So, I'm part English, does that mean that I'd be everyones "favourite English Universitario fan"

Wouldn't hold your breath.

More Irish than "Irish" though.

So you are literally the only one in your family who was born in the states?

 

[epic73]

Or Peru.

Other than my sister, yes.

Knew this guy in Canada who said he was Cambodian, Canadian, German, Italian, English, Welsh, Irish, Spanish, Argentinian, Vietnamese, Japanese, Australian, New Zealand, I don't even remember all the nations but basically he said he held a lot of nationalities. Everyone knew he was just Canadian.

Think once he said that his family was in Canada since the 1600's yet he said he was all these nationalities. Clearly he wasn't

Or Peru.

Being a Peru fan is extremely difficult but I'd take it over being a Scotland fan any day.

No one would ever pretend to be Scottish, mate. In fact most actual Scottish people are so disgusted by their own Scottishness that they project an exaggerated form of misguided patriotism in a bizarre act of overcompensation.

Epic's dad?

Yesterday I had a Scottish football coach who even admitted his Scottishness.

 

[epic73]

Epic73?

Yes. There are multiple Irish people in this world and on this forum.

Epic's dad?

Yes.

Football coaching/management is the one area the Scots really do excel at and I should have mentioned that in my original post.

They are alright really, I'm messing around.

Saltire is an SNP voter, though.

Hey, what's wrong with being a German? .....don't answer

And here was me getting on no bad with him.....

Being German must be amazing, the only nation who excel in everything. However I was more talking about the fact that Epic wasn't pretending to be German

Efficient? Not me

Maybe I am half Irish or English /i

It seems that the cool thing is to be half Irish. If that is the case, then you are definitely not efficient
