I don't get why they're always so hung up on being Irish or Italian or whatever.
Because the US is only 200 years old and people had immigrated to it, sometime people don’t even know where they came from and thrive for their identity.
Plus “Irish American” always sound better than “common garden American”.

Every white person in the USA is decended from immigrants, it's nothing special, I don't get why they're always so hung up on being Irish or Italian or whatever. It's like me claiming I'm Norwegian because it was them that settled in Normandy then later invaded and settled England.
