When I was in Ireland I used to come across Irish people telling me what 'I' had done to 'them' in the past. When I pointed out that I personally had never done anything to them because neither of us were alive back then they would then go on to say that it was my ancestors who had done it to their ancestors - at which stage I would point out that a large proportion of my ancestors were amongst the 'being done unto' group.
