Being Scottish (well, half...) I get a lot of this from Americans with Scottish ancestry. It's kind of a running joke among the Scottish and Irish, that somehow we're going to know every american's ancestor!

Having said that, when I said that my boyfriend was from the US, a lady at my work (who used to live in the US, about 20 years ago...) asked me if I knew one of her old friends. She lived in michigan I think, so how the hell my boyfrined would know him, being from Seattle and all I have no idea. How many of hundreds of millions of people are there in the US anyway? pfft..

I think this happens just about everywhere with Americans. Very sad :(

What?!? You mean not every random person from Scotland knows my ancestors even though I don't even know their names?!? Never mind that they came over here around 17something, why don't you know who they areeeeeeeeeee...

Yeah, most Americans can be culturally insensitive idiots and just general morons most of the time. The other 5% of us apologize.
