#1 Is it unfair to call this "red on red"?

#2 Idiots, I thought they came here to escape that kind of bullshit.

#3 Nope! They're just importing their culture.

#4 Nope! They're just importing their culture.

Truly! Mr. Wife was elected captain of his high school soccer team, not because he was the best player (he wasn't) or even the most popular one, but because as a Polish-descended, American-born lad he was the only one the fresh-off-the-boat Serbs, Croats and Bosnians could agree upon. And of course they went to separate churches, as still do the previous generations of Polish and Italian immigrants. In fact, the only reason my darling mother in law was allowed into the family was that as a French Canadian at least she wasn't Italian. They still viewed her innovations with suspician, though.

#5 Opportunity knocks. If suddenly there were a spate of fire bombings there, one could leave a Shia calling card one night and a Sunni one the next. And, valla, urban renewal all over the area.

#7 Wow TW - you win.

I thought my Amish/Italian/Pennsylvania German family background had you all trumped. In school I was quite the superstar - I could swear in ~~three~~ four dialects/languages. Almost forgot I can do it in English too.

I've been told when my grandmothers first met, they circled each other warily like fighters in the UFC octogon.

#9 Strange. Shiite power is paramount in Deerbornistan, etc. However, the Nation of Islam have Sunni pretences.

Who else knows that NOI doctrine holds that there are dynamite carrying space ships circling the earth, waiting to herald a 5000 year period of black rule? Bring em on!

#10 GORT dear, that's Mr. Wife's side of the family. My side is half German (Mama) and half Latvian-born Israeli (Daddy). And while Mr. Wife's Polish consists almost exclusively of language inappropriate to the drawing room, I can't swear properly in any language, not even English. So you can still win if you want to. ;-)

A stunning revelation there 3550.
