NOBODY ever has guessed my correct nationality. 99% of them are absolutely convinced that I am Italian!

The 25th of June will mark five years for this thread's existence. Five years ago...Man, I made this thread before I graduated high school (June 2011).

And it's STILL going!

This is by far the biggest and most successful thread I've ever made on the Internet.

Thanks for all the replies over this half decade.

To be fair though, that's probably only because you keep coming back to resurrect it.

The OP has not been resurrecting this thread when it has had no replies for a few weeks or even several months.

Because of my name people ask me if I'm Swedish, but I'm not. Mostly German, French (Alsatian), and English with a smidgen of Scottish and Dutch.
