I think "FUUUUUUUUUUCK" while running away would also work

As mialinay said, it was too painfully unfunny to be a joke. I think everybody can pretty clearly see through your act, that you decide whether to try to pass something off as a joke based on other people's reaction. If they agree, then it was serious. If they disagree, it was just a joke and "stop getting offended bro, why are you so offended by a little joke?" As I said, Schrodinger's douchebag.

Oh yeah our culture is basically 50% Germanic 50% Slav

Oh like Alsace-Lorraine? That'd make sense, both Czechia and Eastern parts of France are influenced by German culture and I think the lamb cake might have originated there.

Czech here, I don't know where purplepumpkin is from but it's customary here as well.

@mialinay Nah just a general observation. And I'm glad we agree on the basis.
@m Oh look a Schrodinger's douchebag, haven't seen one of those in a while.

Yeah it's not like philosophy has gotten us anywhere in the past or anything.
Honestly I've never seen more hate and spite towards thinkers than from code monkeys who think they know everything about the world because "muh practical skills". Practical application is important. But thinking is also important. Progress can't happen with just one.

Eh, tomato tomato.
A lot of combinations that go well with pasta are also great on pizza.
While I'd personally prefer this combination with pasta, I wouldn't have a problem with it on pizza either.
That said, I also like pineapple on pizza. It's not my favorite thing but I'm not against it. So maybe my opinion isn't valid to picky eaters as I will eat almost anything.

I recently switched to solid shampoo and vinegar water instead of conditioner because it's a lot more eco friendly than regular shampoo and conditioners and dang does my hair look good.
Point is you don't have to use expensive products (I have bad experience with how expensive "professional" shampoos make my hair look and feel) but find one that fits your hair type. And damn using a product when it might cause hair loss is is just real stupid.

and sometimes they're so heartbroken because they thought they had ancestors in some place granny told them about, and they found out they didn't (again it might just be due to the inaccuracy of the test itself). So really cultural identity is something in your brain, not your genes, and I think you should be able to celebrate a culture without being perceived as offensive.

Hmm, you guys make a good point about the ethnicity tests. Africa is made up of so many tribes that dividing it into countries as the colonial powers did messed up a lot of things because it forced warring tribes to be in one country while separating other tribes. So it might not actually be accurate, I didn't realize that. I also agree with guest_'s point about cultures, the US is a land of immigrants, of course the descendants of Irish immigrants probably don't speak Gaelic and don't know a lot of the history or traditions. But that doesn't mean they can't try to immerse themselves in the culture.
I dislike this trend of accusing people of cultural appropriation. Cultures are beautiful and we shouldn't try to stop people from celebrating them, whether they have a genetic connection to said culture or not. I watched some YouTube videos in which people did ancestry tests,
