american

1. An individual from the continent of the americas

2. A term of nationality for a United States citizen, a nation who's population approximates 70% of western europe. Certain states within said nation are larger and more densly populated than many countries within Western Europe, which makes travel within and particularly outside of the nation monetarily prohibative for approximately 50% of the population. For that percentage, governmental working standards do not provide paid holiday remotely simiar to world standards (10 days per year.) These conditions prohibit experience outside of a limited sphere and therefore perpetuate ignorance and indifference. This results in the unfortunate election and re-election of a system who maintains these standards in the name of 'patriotism' and 'freedom;' whilst never really providing either iconic ideal. This group maintains psychological function by instituting self-protecting biases of uniqueness and self importance to maintain integrity, and anything that threatens it is fiercly defended against, furthering the vicious circle. Perhaps after witnessing certain evidential and undeniable mistakes of their chosen system of rule, the population will over time begin to realize that the government is providing more regulations than freedoms and will moderate their opinions accordingly. With the passage of time, perhaps these citizens can accept, and be accepted to a place among the world's great nations, rather than claiming their right as the 'best.'
I am an american (from the south, no less) and I'm proud of my diverse and world aware 50%. I don't believe the US is the best country in the world, however, I don't believe the rest of the world has the right to take the piss on 'americans' for choices half of us didn't make and don't agree with, especially when their understanding is limited and often misinformed.

Americanisms

Americanisms are ridiculous mispellings and mispronunciations of the beautiful English language by the yanks. This often involves missing vitally important letters from such words as 'herbs' (in American ' 'erbs'); maths ('math'); through (thru) and bizzarre pronunciations of words such as basil ('baysill'); mirror ('meeyor')and aluminium (alloominum). We invented it, albeit it with a little help from Ancient Romans, Celts and French so stop messing around with it!
Such Americanisms are

Billy-Jo-Bob: Yo whassap dude, yo mama got any 'erbs?
Mary-Jane-Sue: Yeah, they're in the trunk behind the alloominum foil and math books. Be careful of my sweat pants and sneakers.

Americanize

1. To make food unhealthy as possible by loading on excessive amounts of condiments or by cooking it in a deep fryer.

2. To add a large amount of unneeded accessories to something such as a car, house, or any other object or idea that represents the stereotypical American lifestyle.
1. The Chinese food in America tastes much better than the real food that people eat in China. The cheap Chinese restaurants must be Americanizing their food with excessive amounts of trans fats to make it taste better.

2. Customer at a deli- "I'll have the turkey sandwich. I see the option of 'Americanize It!' on the menu. What does that mean?"

Employee- "That means with all of the toppings plus a bucket of grease."

3. Jack blows all of his money Americanizing his car such as buying spinners, spoilers, and a $5,000 sound system. No wonder he's always broke.
