DNA Ancestry Tests

I cringe everytime I see those stupid commercials.
It strikes me as a extremely narcisstic endeavor meant to appeal to the vanity in people that in the end changes nothing but the persons perception

The actor dancing around in lederhosen after learning he had German ancestry used to make me laugh, now its just silly

We are not remotely defined by our ancestry, by a percentage of a culture we've never experienced

But I may be over reacting too, my wife says Im getting ornery in my old age
