I'm with Animaterra. If being too small a fraction of Irish or too far removed from it makes you "not Irish" or a plastic paddy, then not only am a not Irish ("orange" or "green"), I'm also not Scottish, English, Norwegian, German, French, Flemish, Swedish, Jewish, Dutch, Russian, or Native American. And that's just the last few centuries of ancestry. Take it back far enough, and we're all part just-about-everything, I suspect.

I have no ethnicity at all, apparently. Unless Minnesotan counts as an ethnic group, and there are probably those who say I've been away from the homeland for too long....
