In modern usage it refers to anyone of English descent. In historical terms it describes the Germanic invaders from Saxony, and lower Denmark who invaded England shortly after the retreat of Rome from Britannia. Anglo-Saxon people tend to be members of the Anglican Church (Church of England) but this is not always true. Though England is part of the United Kingdom, the other "home nations" of the U.K. are inhabited by the descendats of Celts, not by Anglo-Saxons. This is why only English people are referred to as Anglo-Saxon. Urban Dictionary
The Germanic-speaking descendants of three tribes, the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, who came from Denmark, northwestern Germany, and Holland, who settled in what are now England and southern Scotland in the fifth century, displacing the native Celts. Though they had close cultural ties with Scandinavia, they were on the recieving end of the Viking Raids from 793 to 1066, when the Anglo-Saxon government (now mostly under the control of Vikings) was annihilated by the Normans, a powerful group of French-speaking Vikings. Urban Dictionary
One of descent from England, but no-where else (not even other parts of the united kingdom) who can trace his or her mitochrondric DNA to either the anglo mitochrondric eves or the saxons mitochrondric eves. Basically, if your family lived in England before 1066, you are of anglo-saxon descent. This label is NOT extended to Normans. Simply being pre-plantagenet is not enough to be considered anglo-saxon. Urban Dictionary
Nordic peoples who make up the majority of ancestors for the English race, main features are golden hair and blue eyes. They replaced the Welsh as the dominant power in Britian. The real Master Race, not Germans. Urban Dictionary
The result when 'white' met 'bred' Urban Dictionary
An Anglo Saxon is a person that descents of Germanic tribes and that inhabits the British isle, notably England. Vast numbers of Anglo Saxons also migrated to the US so they could spread their 'culture' there as well, only after they had murdered the indigenous population. Examples of Anglo Saxon cultural achievements are chavs, Wayne Rooney and Marmite. Anglo Saxons often have pinkish or ruddy faces which is a result of a serious lack of pigmentation. They are a lot like albinos, though different in the sense that their limbs apparently do not magically cure all kinds of diseases Urban Dictionary
A meaningless term, normally used by morons, idiots, dimwits and dorks, to refer to Anglo-Saxons, revealing a lack of intelligence and mental creativity in the person who says it. Initially used as a term in the mid to late 1980s by Kempke when his English teacher was discussing Anglo-Saxons, wherefor he turned to Skoudas and said laughingly, "Anglo-Saxon Saxaphone! Anglo-Saxon Saxaphone!" Urban Dictionary
Sticking two fingers up at somebody, flicking Vs. A reference to the Norman invasion of England. When the Normans captured Anglo-Saxon archers, they would cut the archer's index and middle fingers off. So as a act of defiance, unmolested Anglo-Saxon archers would rebelliously stick those two fingers up at the Normans. Urban Dictionary
The oddly antiquated and exaggerated body language exhibited by the March Hare (Haigha) in Lewis Carroll's "Through The Looking Glass." Victorians were intrigued by the history and culture of Anglo-Saxons, and Carroll pokes fun at this trend by transforming the March Hare of "Alice In Wonderland," into an Anglo-Saxon Messenger in the book's sequel. Alice comments "'...what curious attitudes he goes into!' (For the Messenger kept skipping up and down, and wriggling like an eel, as he came along, with his great hands spread out like fans on each side.)" This explains why the famous illustrator, Sir John Tenniel, depicted Haigha (rhymes with mayor, a homophone to the British pronunciation of "hare") in clothing that contemporary scholars viewed as being the typical garb of Anglo-Saxons. These academic jabs --- as well as subtle references to social celebrities, combined with rampant wordplay, and use of puns, puzzles, and logic --- made Carroll's "Alice In Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass" hugely popular with adults, as well as with the intended audience of children. Urban Dictionary
When you espouse white supremacist beliefs, but you still want to be invited to parties. Urban Dictionary
