    @madman You have a knack for posting part-Filipino people, though in this case I assume you didn’t know that you were (though subconsciously you must have).

      I find people who are a quarter or less of a different race than the rest interesting. Most times I realise they are when I start investigating, like with Roger Dale Floyd or Ella Anderson (but yes, on some level, I think I always knew).
