Strike, I have found you a nice Jewish girl...

[Yoyoma1910]

Those damn Louisiana cajuns.

Wow. Thanks for expressing a lovely stereotype.


I'll have you know: A) My wife is French. B) My brother's wife is Hawaiian. C) My sister's baby daddy is Mexican. Also, none of my cousins married or dated each other.

You don't count. You lot aren't true Americans with red, white and blue blood running through you.

Buddy, I'm a Cajun. And just 'cause someone probably has no idea what my culture or ethnicity is, doesn't really make me happy for it to be mocked with jokes about incest.

I'm also a corpsman in the U.S. navy, so don't even start the patriotic prattle.

My apologies.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of cajun culture. I think it's one of the most intriguing and purest traditions of the United States, and that's a positive thing.

No worries. Just doing my duty to my people. I'm sure you too would have at least said something if someone here had made a similar accusation towards your culture.


...

I also don't really get the whole point of this whole thread, since not all Jewish girls only date Jewish men. I dated a couple. Of course, I can grow a pretty mean beard...

As coincidence would have it, both populations that have been the subject of this thread - (Ahskenazi) Jews and Cajuns - really do have (had) very high levels of inbreeding, and were formed from small founding populations.

As a result, both groups have high occurences of similar afflictions, notably Tay-Sachs, which is a near exclusive to Ashkenazi Jews and French-speaking North Americans.

True, true. Laissez les bons temps rouler.

Yes well, thanks for the abandonment, continental.

Edit: you also forgot the Amish.

[Louis VI the Fat]

Abandonement? What abandonment? I, for one, have always tried my utmost to personally enrich the limited genepool of French Americans.


More seriouslsy, it is all not a matter of being incestuous hicks, but of limited founding populations and subsequent isolation. All Cajuns still are relatives of one another though. It can't be helped.

It isn't that hard to figure out, a nice jewish girl, and everybody had her

My comment was tongue-in-cheek, making fun of the patriotic prattle. I am not even from the USA.

Also, all blood is red, white and blood anyway. Red blood cells (/w oxygen), White blood cells, the 'blue' red blood cells (/wo oxygen).

[Fragony]

Yeah it's true, I was really moved by Shakespear's 'The Merchant of Venice, and guess what when you stab them they really bleed. Poison experiment is pending. Antisemitism is so stupid.

Buddy, I'm a Cajun.

Would it be possible to email me some cracklin? I'm sure gmail has the technology. That stuff is heavenly.

You know, ever since I signed up in this forum and started the fire, intolerance has generally become more open and acceptable. It's crazy.

it's life.

we live in the year 2010, but some people still think this is 1850.

No, but I could post a picture of some on here, and we could all lick our computer screens. Of course, then we'd be widow lickers, which is a term one of my boot camp petty officers used to use. "You bunch of window lickers better get your heads out your ."

[Hax]

Can you kidnap Steve Riley for me?

[Yoyoma1910]

Can you kidnap Steve Riley for me?

Since apparently according to this thread I'm related to him and his entire band, I'll see what I can do at the next family get together.

Since I am fairly familar with your people May I mock?
