American

An American can technically be from any of the Americas, but when a person uses "American" in a sentence, they would likely be talking about something or someone from the United States. Like any country, America has her stereotypes, many of which are overexaggerated by people who have never set foot in the USA. An American might be recognized as:

- An ignorant person.
- A fat, lazy bum.
- An uneducated person.
- An uncultured person.
- A loud, obnoxious person.
- A racist.
- A wasteful/extravagant person.

(While Americans may be some, many, or all of these things, it's important to note that "some" does not mean "the majority".)

True American culture is all about freedom, patriotism, equality, hard work, and independence. Like other countries, we share a love of diverse foods, sports, traditions, entertainment, and music. The American Dream is widely believed in. We celebrate special holidays like Thanksgiving, where we give thanks and express gratitude. Many give thanks to God. Independence Day, celebrated on July 4th, where we celebrate with a large party or barbeque, and fireworks. There are also other patriotic holidays, like Labor Day, Memorial Day, and Veterans Day.

From a personal standpoint, America is full of compassionate, hardworking folk who would lend a hand when you're in need. Despite certain differences between one another, we can still agree on the fact that America is a beautiful country and she should be respected and honored.

American Gothic

American Gothic can be used to describe a person who chooses not to show empathy, and is exhausting to be in a relationship with.
The reason you are unable to have rewarding relationships is because you are American Gothic, in such a way that you would never exercise considerate or empathetic behavior.
