Why do Americans do this?

I still dont understand who would be proud to have mick blood in their veins.

My ancestors used to be the rulers of Munster and I'm a direct descendant of Charlemagne

only post itt if you're irish

They do it as a talking point and a mean of relating. I don't see anything particular wrong with it, especially when they come here and spend money or lobby for Irish interests.

One of my family lines had nobles from Roscommon, which I thought was neato
But I don't consider myself Irish American

Usually they're inept or find the culture interesting and attempt to associate themselves with it.
There are people here who pretend to be Scandi and Finnish too

Lack of real culture or identity. Notice how this is mainly white Americans.

> Why do Americans do this?
irish americans are super into their heritage. more so than other white people that live here. it gets to the point where it's a huge a part of their identity.

Yes Irish Americans do have a tendency to have white skin alright.

>Go to Boston and New York
This is expected. Shit tons of Irish immigrants ended up in the Northeast region of the country.
>Anywhere else
Posing to impress foreigners
