Are you secretly Spanish?
This describes half my colleagues on the faculty.
My problem with them (or there problem with me, I guess) is that I'm not so secretly a Hugenot/Sicilian/Irish, the dreaded genetic combo that creates the deviant personality type of HUGSICMICK.
How do you know if you are a HUGSICMICK?
When faced with bureaucratic inanity, do you:
A. Laugh politely and bend in complete meek subservience because that is the prudent thing to do; or
2. Scream "AREYOUFARGINGTALKINGOTOMEYOULAZYPIECEOFSHITSORRYEXCUSE? ISYOURPHDINDIPSHITSTUDIES? PREPARETOBEBOARDEDYOUUSELESSCLUELESSWASTEOFSPACE!"
(And no, Liz, this has absolutely nothing to do with the Instruction Committee and Faculty meeting tomorrow!)

I have Pioneer ancestry AND Indian.
I have German ancestry AND Jewish.
I have ancestors who fought for the Union AND the Confederacy.
I'll never be schizo because the personalities would kill each other off.
