Try doing that before you post. Anyways, about the name. How is it NOT a real name? North America is a CONTINENT. Mexico is a COUNTRY in North America. Canada is a COUNTRY in North America. United States of America is a COUNTRY in North America. United States of America is the NAME of the country. It is also called U.S.A., U.S. of A, U.S., or America. People who live in USA are AMERICANS because it is the United States of AMERICA. I dont get how you can think it isnt a name. I live in Canada so I am Canadian. People who live in Mexico are Mexicans. Have fun in Greece!!!!
Wow this thread is getting out of hand Lets just all agree to disagree. Yes the americans have brought us a lot of pretty nice things, though most of them where invented by someone else many (hundred) years ago, or atleast the idea was thought up long ago. So actually who cares, someone had the idea, someone else made it. The reason the US is the world leader in terms of business, is its sheer size, the amount of buying and people power available in the US is truely insane compared to that available to smaller countries. Thats not to say thats the only reason, but it is a large contributing factor. Also it is a very business and economy driven country, "The American Dream" is testemant to this. Also was pillow suggesting that the US invented cars, trains, planes, cheese, cats and whatever else he said? I really did try hard to read it, but I failed. *Makes a swift U-turn back on topic* Your country does have a name....
Go and tell that to the American company that is producing them and claiming they invented them even though they have not paid the Australian company that owns the patent nor have they paid for the trade marked name *** Boots. Now what do we keep calling that country, you know the one, they invaded Iraq and Afghanistan on a false premise of going after weapons of mass destruction or terrorists or 'freeing' the Iraqui's from suffering or whatever it was? It is not called Africa, Asia or Europe. Ummm, it has a name, now what was it again?
Americans do not have a country. They think they own the world. When have you heard an American say "I'm from USA(or any of its derivatives)." when you ask them where they're from? It's always,"I'm from California","I'm from New York","I'm from Washington DC". Yep, they think the entire world is America, divided into hundreds of different states. Just repeating what Inky Jones the comedian said.
No it's funny, period. And about it being ignorant, lol, get your heard out of your arse, it's called having a laugh, if you don't get the jokes, don't join in, simple as.
You're a stupid, annoying, ignorant, unfunny ****. All americans are fat, ugly, irritating, loud, obnoxious, and overly patriotic. You're right, joining in this "laugh" is fun!
Riiight... and all Brits are cold, dry and prudish with bad teeth, prone to bouts of binge-drinking when they're not sipping tea, loutish behavior, half the men are gay, the women are all frigid, and everyone is a close personal friend of the Royals and obsessed with football. Oh yes, and let's not forget the universally bad food. Oh yes, fun... gee, I forgot how to have a laugh. ;P Pointless, all really.
