African American

A controversial and failing attempt to euphemize an identity phrase for Black Americans. Unfortunately for the phrase's potential to be literally correct, all humans came from Africa at one time, therefore all people, regardless of breed, color, ethnicity or however one may choose to categorize them, are of African descent. Another problem the more-educated population has with the phrase is that the quickest way to know which specific type of African American one is referring to is to look at their skin. This takes the subject of conversation back to black, eliminating the function of the euphemistic-intentioned phrase. Due to it's failure to positively convey the identity of the Black American without error, the phrase has evolved into a dysphemism and is often spoken between air quotes.

Correct: Aboriginal Australians are black, and many of African emmigrants are black, but African Americans range in color as far as human potential has seen.

Incorrect: Jesse Jackson is an African American but Richard Nixon is not.

american gangster

A sweet ass movie about the rise of frank Lucas the heroin drug lord and the cop that try's to stop him. The movie is influenced by both Scarface and The God Father but is still of its own. A soon to be American classic.

American Gangster was the fuckin sweetest thing I've ever seen.

American English

American English is a language that has so many obvious rules that almost only Americans break.

the difference between "then" and "than". they almost always confuse them. I'm not American but I perfectly know when to use each one!
