Generally I dislike when folks want to explain their heritage to me. It's usually average people who are trying to make themselves seem interesting, and their claims of having exciting ancestry aren't proven, just remarked upon. Chris loves to brag, he loves to point out how unique and special he is and it never really benefits him. I bet almost everyone he tells about his Cherokee/English royalty pedigree reacts like I do, which is not giving a shit at all and remaining skeptical about its validity.
I'm kind of interested in Genealogy, because, well--it's interesting. I like knowing about the people that came before me, whether they were horse thieves or inventors or murderers or politicians/chiefs/nobility or heroes. Other people's ancestors are interesting as well. The mistake a lot of people make is to treat their lineage as an accomplishment. For example I like being part Irish, but I'm not proud of it. It was nothing I did, it was something neat I got.
