I Am Italian

I am largely Italian on both sides of my family, with small amounts of Norwegian, British and German, so at a conservative estimate, I'm guessing I'm about 80% pure-blooded. I have typical Sicilian features, including dark skin, dark brown hair and and large brownish-green eyes. I take pride in my heritage, and admittedly rather enjoy being a stereotype, although I kind of wish I hadn't inherited the trademark Italian temper (if you're an Italian, you'll know what I'm talking about). I love Italy, and want to go there someday, maybe as a foreign exchange student or something like that. I think I would fit in quite nicely. The only problem is, my crush is Irish, and I don't know how well she's going to live up to stereotypes, but I have a feeling we'll end up at odds at some point, probably over who gets the last swig. If we ever end up together, which I doubt we ever will.

This is good information to know. I'm taking notes...

Don't be shitty. Oh, and where are you from?
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Okay... sorry... I guess I was trying to be funny. From the USA...
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: Okee dokey. And I was asking about your ancestry. I'm American too, but American isn't an ethnicity in the same way that Italian is.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Oh... Russian.
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: Kewl. You know, I was always kind of fascinated with Russia. I'm kind of a history buff, if I do say so myself.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Wow... me too... but to be honest I don't really have that much of an affinity to my ancestral heritage. I am more into American history.
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: I can understand that. I tend to focus more on being American too, since that's where I live and all.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Yeah... but history itself fascinates me. Sometimes, I imagine (daydream) what it would be like to go back in time to see things... not interact... just see them happening.
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: I know that feel.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Yeah... but I guess people in the future (including us) will want to do that in the time we are living in right now...
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: Wouldn't that be cool? I mean, imagine if you got famous. Then people would daydream about going back in time and meeting you.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
yeah... that blows my mind...
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: Not to sound like a dick or anything, but are you high? You kind of sound like me on weed.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
LOL... I swear, I'm not high...
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: K. I really wish I was. But I got the mombot on my back, so hey, wachya gonna do?
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Yeah, I hear you. It would be cool to get high with you right now and talk history... I don't have any excuse not to, but... I don't know...
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: I'd probably be too fucked up to make much sense anyway.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
yeah... but still... we'd be talking about time traveling... I still wish we could...
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: Maybe. Mom's leaving in a sec, so I should have a few hours to myself. I'll keep you posted. Unless I forget. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Ha... okay man.. that's a deal!
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: 420 blaze on, bruddah.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@WorldAtArms2000: Now you're talking!!!
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: Might have to take a rain check on the weed.My stepdad's gonna be here soon.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
:-( Yeah, I know how that goes... okay man... maybe another time.
WorldAtArms2000 · 22-25, M
@MarkPaul: Kewl. I'll let you know when I get a second.
