She probably means “the majority of my DNA traces back to Ireland”.
Well she looks like a Dub (and I’m a Dub before yiz all get offended!!)
Crying 17 times is probably a bit much, but I don’t have a problem with this. I don’t know why we are so eager to shit on American people who can trace their ancestry back here and are proud to do so. A lot of people had to leave here for reasons outside of their control.
Yeah the way Americans talk about their ancestry/DNA is fucking weird, but lads do we not have any better hobbies than publicly shaming someone from the safety of a keyboard and computer screen?
God forbid people feel a connection to the land of their ancestors and their history.
Irish people online seem to be weirdly fixated on this in a negative way whereas everyone I know in the real world is proud of our diaspora’s connection to us.
One million percentages
Honestly, fair fucks to her, she’s absolutely nailed the Irish dancing hairstyle if that photo is any guide.
What’s “nearly 17 times”? So, like 16?
As a nation who’s history is so rooted in emigration we really have no patience for Irish-americans who feel a connection to our island.
I mean.. that’s cool and all. Seems a little over the top.
Most Americans have some kind of Irish heritage.
I find this stuff a little cringe but harmless. It’s only the (mostly) right wing Americans who think they’re ’more Irish than the Irish’ that are the problem.
I’m an American of mostly Irish descent who thought I was over the top but this is too nauseating even for me. Does she have, say maybe, 132% Irish DNA? 148%? Wow, she defies time, space, and physics! Make her Queen or something
So
Emotional
What in the Ellis Island is this?
Typical hack YT-er shilling for Subs…..
As dumb as it sounds I can relate I was born in Galway to 2 American parents with Irish ancestry on their honeymoon, we moved to the states when I was four so I only recalled a little. As soon as I went back to visit some family for Christmas, it was like a long lost friend called out to me, truly beautiful country.
This is just the typical human reaction to seeing Irish weather for the first time
Whoop doopy, unfortunately I was born and live in Ireland suppose crying is opt emotion
She cried “nearly 17 times.”
So, 16 times then?
Is that whole country mentally unstable?
Everyone time i land in aldergrove and ring me da to pick me up because theres no public transport from the airport, I start weeping too, maybe shes on to something
I likely have zero ancestry tracing back to Ireland, given that I am Cajun and Mexican (Mexi-Cajun, if you will). However, I’ve been obsessed with Ireland since I was a kid, probably all those weird pure mood commercials with Enya, idk. It’s just turned into my Autism/ADHD hyper fixation/special interest. I will probably cry a lot when I go there, too. Might even puke from excitement. Y’all have an incredible island, incredible history, and incredible culture, in my humble American opinion. The poetry, the music, the language, and the fucking absolute sheer stubbornness of clinging to it while colonizing forces tried to rip it away. 10/10, no notes.
Anyway, I suppose my point is that there are some of us out here who love your land and your people because y’all are class and not because of weird white supremacy or whatever this is.
We’ve all cried 17 times in Ireland, you’re not special bitch
Cried “nearly” 17 times? What was that like?
“… *Ok, I’ve just finished cry number 16. Oh wait, I feel cry number 17 coming… nah, false alarm, I’m ok.*” 🥲
One stands to wonder just how large of a breakdown she will suffer once she visits the Horn of Africa…
LinkedIn lunatic
Why did I know it was LinkedIn before even reading it
This is an ad. Americans can be very silly about ancestry (myself included) but this one is just too on the nose. Like she wanted to push as many buttons as possible to boost exposure for her YouTube channel.
Right down to the “you’ll never believe why this young irish american woman was crying” lead in. We’re a nation of immigrants and we’ve become a nation of grifters.
Crying ‘nearly 17 times’ isn’t very Irish behaviour. She needs to bottle things up a bit more, like a true Gael.

She’s not harming anybody like.

This has to be the most Irish American thing ever
