reesetee And SUVs! Jul 24, 2007
uselessness And we'd bribe 'em right back with nukes. Big honking NUKES!! Jul 24, 2007
jennarenn Nope, he'd bribe the needy voters with free world maps. Jul 24, 2007
uselessness If anyone could do it, we could. The United States: bully of the world. I think we'd have success everywhere but Venezuela, and eventually even Chavez would cave under our might. Bwahaha. Jul 24, 2007
reesetee Hmm...that could work. *strokes chin* Jul 24, 2007
jennarenn R, that's too much work. All we have to do is rename the continents. Jul 24, 2007
reesetee Okay, how about this: We make all the other countries in the Americas change their names, and....
No, never mind. Jul 24, 2007
uselessness Sounds like something from Gulliver's Travels. That would make sense to the five of us who actually know where the word "America" comes from. ;-) Jul 24, 2007
reesetee *looking around* Who, me?
I have it: Vespuccians. We'll call ourselves Vespuccians. Perfect. Jul 24, 2007
uselessness How about Stater? ;-) Jul 24, 2007
slumry U, think of the scorn that would be heaped upon us if we were to call ourselves that. Leave bad enough alone! Jul 24, 2007
uselessness Got any better ideas, smart guy?
...besides, you know, what we have now. Jul 24, 2007
reesetee If we call ourselves this, I'm moving! Jul 24, 2007
slumry Ah, high school. . .it is fortunate that we mature, isn't it? These are the kinds of memories that tend to make us blush in retrospect. Jul 24, 2007
uselessness Ahh, I confess I don't really care. I'm just a selfish American, anyway. :-)
I got in a mild dispute in high school with one of my friends who was from Honduras. He very passionately argued that he was an American, and I very coldly argued that he was not. Jul 24, 2007
slumry I did mean to say also I agree with you than American is a misleading description, although it seems to be deeply rooted now! Jul 24, 2007
uselessness The duck is a noble creature, and appears all the more so when it's sitting and you can't see those goofy webbed feet. Jul 24, 2007
slumry Only if we want to make ourselves sitting ducks. ;-) Jul 24, 2007
uselessness My recommendation for the new name by which citizens of the United States refer to themselves. Because American can be confusing, and should refer to anyone who lives in the Americas, which encompass much more than just the USA. Who's with me? Jul 24, 2007
