Well, being of Irish descent, and from Cork, I want to know how many of you are not from the US. You canajuns…KEEP OUT OF IT WE DON’T WANT YOUR KIND HERE!!!
Anyway, who here isn’t American?

According to the census form we just filled out I’m Swedish and Mrs. Pluto is Manx. We are both American citizens, however, born and raised in the US of A. Mrs. Pluto’s dad was Canadian, but is now a naturalized American. (His grandmother was from the Isle of Man. Hence the census report.)
Apparently the government doesn’t believe any of us might be Americans. We have to have an “ethnicity”.

They may have changed things Euri (I’ve been a naturalized citizen for a long time now), but I’m not sure you had to give up yer Irish citizenship. IIRC, there is, or was, a loophole that allowed dual-citizenship so long as you went back to renew your accent every so often.
I’m a Scotsman by birth, and I think they only put in the loophole because they like to make fun of our accents. (Insert Smilie here)
Anyway, what do you call a sixteen year old Irish lad who’s in the third grade?
Gifted.
