Okay this actually something my sister believed but i think it's hilarious. First of all my family is the whitest white family there is but when my brother laughs his eyes srunch up like an Oriental persons would. So, my sister asked why and my grandmother told her that we had Japanese heritage in our family. She believed it for years. Turns out we are 100% Irish.
