Because I need a good laugh today :)

I'd love to see his DNA markers. Look at that brow, or rather, lack thereof.

Not an insult, just an observation. My DNA shows I have more neandertal in my genetic makeup than 95% of most people.
Kind of explains a lot.

haha I have not checked my DNA, would be interesting to find out since I'm culturally and racially blended.

It really is fascinating, and a bit of information overload, leaving more questions than you started with.

What do you mean? Russian/Ukrainian/Mongolian Siberian Kozak... I'm sure that there's neanderthal in there too, would be fun to check.

Yeah, all of those and more going back to the beginning of time. True Africans do not have neandertal.
My lineage starts in North Africa, Eurasia Caucasus , Armenia and Georgia, going back fifty six thousand years.
If you get a male in your family it will give even more info, don't ask, I don't know why.
This was done through 23 and Me.

Would love to try "23 and Me", how long did you wait for the results?

For me, it was about two weeks and they inform you via email so it's online immediately.
The neat thing is, they tell you about variants such as markers indicating disorders, that, if you marry someone with the same markers/variants, you could pass the malady onto your offspring.
Mental issues such as retardation, liberalism, etc...
