Good day gents, so last night I had to go and do some late night oilfeild work, I ended up taking a guy named Adam with me as my helper, he's American by the way, or rather he's a Canadian that was adopted by an American family, which he left in California to come find his biological family, anyway not the point. Adam got to telling me a story of how him and a few of his buddies were skateboarding, and came across another group of men, now for some reason or other a fight broke out between the two groups of people, now after few mins the skateboarders are losing ground, and Adam decides to split. So as he's telling me all this, and he's making it sound exciting, you know the whole thrill of evasion, and he had a tenth of my attention rite up to the point where he mentioned that they were ANGLO-SAXONS chasing him. This caused me to stop his story dead in its tracks, and forced me to ask him if it was common for German tribesmen, and/or vikings roam around California terrorizing it residents, Man you would not believe the snickering that came out of this man's mouth, when he explained to me that anglo-saxons were the Caucasian peoples of the U.S.A, but I'm calling B.S on this, and I'll say it! I don't think there are any vikings running around the U.S country side...other than those silly capital one commercials.

Just thought I'd see what someone else has to say, since Adam...is a little spacey, or, I can't tell, its either spacey, or hes a deep reminiscer. I think he's the first "surfer dude" I've ever met, and I don't know WTF he's saying most times.

No one has EVER called me an Anglo-Saxon even though I'm a 100% Viking, first generation Norwegian on both sides of the family to be born in America.
I do not own a battle axe, a spear, a shield or a mace, but I do have a hatchet, a pool cue a large pot lid and a small can of pepper spray. I also have a Capitol One card. :D
I'd say your coworker is living in the dark ages to be using that phrase. REALLY strange. I've only heard that term in History classes and on the History channel.
 
They just fall under Other. At least those are the options on the drop down menus for report writing.
 
Thanks guys, that exactly what I was thinking, what an out of time name for a group of people.

Don't want to know what happened to your sheep.

Turns out my town was set up by Saxons in the 9th century. How useful to know.
