    Very cute :)

    But… as a PhD Organic/Biochemist, I kinda find it hard to imagine they did not see the DNA as non-human, but hey, maybe the code reader was a trainee. :)

    Garbage in, garbage out…all for $49.95!

    Just goes to show you what a scam these DNA testing websites are. If you think this is simply about researching your ancestry, you would be sadly mistaken. The woman who founded 23 and Me is Anne Wojcicki, who is married to Sergi Brin (Google founder) and the sister of Susan Wojcicki (YouTube CEO). They all have something in common, and it’s not just their business skills. Don’t take these tests! It’s all about collecting personal info on you, and this at its most essential level.

    You actually have to, ahem, get quite a sample in that test tube to send off. I doubt a lizard has that much in them. What did they do, wring him out?

    I believe that this is a spoof video and not an actual result from 23andme.

    “My lizard was 51% Ashkenazi Jewish.”

    Mazel tov!

    Proverbs 30:24 Four things on earth are small,
    but they are exceedingly wise:
    25 the ants are a people not strong,
    yet they provide their food in the summer;
    26 the badgers are a people not mighty,
    yet they make their homes in the rocks;
    27 the locusts have no king,
    yet all of them march in rank;
    28 the lizard you can take in your hands,
    yet it is in kings’ palaces.

    Some, like Fr. Neuhaus of happy memory, would argue that New York City is the only palace for kings:
