I did 23andMe. The most surprising things were that I am 10% ‘French and German’, and that I am genetically predisposed to be unusually slender. I thought I was English, Irish and Scandinavian, which is otherwise about right.

I’m also apparently like a thousandth Northern African/Arabian, and a thousandth Eastern European. It is weird to me that the world has been so unmixed that everyone isn’t at least a thousandth everything, but apparently it has.
