American Euro-mutt.

Swedish, Irish, British, German, White Croat.

Americans Good: We are the only nation based upon an idea; that being that all men are created equal and are endowed with certain rights, blah blah....

Bad: Don't [censored] with us, or we'll bomb the [censored] out of your country. Maybe that's actually good. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Yeah, let's all pay homage to the great American thinkers Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, the Abbe Sieyes, Jean-Jacques Rousseau etc.

This is common among Texans: They think of themselves as Texans, not Americans.

I'm from New England. We're not the most social bunch of people around here, we're really keep-to-ourselves types, and here is Massachusetts we drive like psychos and like to drink too much. But we're hard working people and generally try to be nice and helpful once we are spoken to.

Other than that, I dunno.. generalizations don't mean much. My "heritage" is Irish and Italian.

that sums me up pretty well...
