People who act as if all native americans are still living in the past in buckskins
UGH SO LAME
I am tired of hearing "I have a wolf spirit" or "Do you people still live in tipis?" or they act as if we are all knowing, yes lady I am a powerful healer,give me $200.00 and I will heal your inner spirit, they give me the money, I spit some juniper water on them and tell them they are now of the wannabe clan lol(done that 5 times for real)
Then you get the ones that say they are part indian...oh really,which part? your big toe? I know its not your brain or you would not say lame stuff like that. The ones that say their grandmother was a cherokee princess are the lamest liars in the entire world, cherokee never had royalty and even the chiefs were just spokespeople figure heads. The council made the rules.
Give me a break if you ever travel to my country, Native Americans are who we are,we are not canadians, we are not americans so don't bother trying to get us into that battle either.
Yes some of our men have long hair,our men are handsome that way,please do not grow long hair if you are white, the vast majority of you look stupid.
Please don't ask me how to say something in Navajo, Lakohta or cree, I speak Hidatsa, English, German and French, I also will not associate with illegal mexicans so dont ask me if I feel a kin towards them.
However,keep giving me hundreds and hundreds of dollers every year to pose for photos with you as it paid for my trip to Aruba and Dubai and other vacations.
wow this was a rant, sorry, went off on a rage there. Inlaws are here from the Ukraine and I am sooooo sick of stupid questions.

I'm with you, I hate the wannabees.
In New Mexico, it was the easterners trying to tell us how they felt the vibrations from their crystals in Santa Fe. Thus spurring the old saying: "Wasn't it better when Santa Fe wasn't like SAN FRANCISCO?"

I worked on the rez in SD/ND (SissWahpOyate) for years and recently for Tinta Wita in MN. We couls swap stories. Ft. Berthold?

Just wondering
When you hunt buffalo, how many of you does it take to bring one down?

Any special cooking recipes when preparing the beasts?

"I speak Hidatsa, English, German and French"
No idea what the first one is - sounds like someone sneezing - but I'd certainly question your claim to speak English...

Likewise, the ability to ape lines from WWII films does not equate with 'speaking german', and the french vocabularly does, I'm told, extend somewhat past 'nous sommes surrender'.

Reminds me
I remember being in the Highlands - Glencoe with a Scottish mate on a field trip up there. Surveying the overpriced tourist crap on sale I asked him if he winced that his culture was reduced to tawdry shite - everything in tartan, etc. etc.

He pointed out that as long as dumb tourists spent their cash he didn't give a f**k.

Fair point I thought!

why aren't european-americans allowed to grow long hair?
1) if you're going to complain so much about white people and declare yourself not american, why do you call yourself native american? you used the naughty word! call yourself a native if you like, but taking on the name that we europeans gave to the country is hypocritical if you're gonna bitch about it.
2) i like long hair. long hair on a guy can be very sexy if it's well-maintained. and, in fact, aboriginals in this hemisphere are not the only people in the world to ever grow their hair long. i think you'll find that long hair was grown everywhere before scissors were invented. (sarcasm, in case you can't tell.) so... yeah, don't lay a claim to inventing that please.
