Scenario 1
Person 1: OH MY GOD! Can you believe India only outlawed acid throwing on women's faces in 2013?

Scenario 2
Person 1: European countries basically share the same cultures, right?
Person 2: I mean that's sort of a generalization.
Person 1: Dude really... What's the difference between Germans and Italians anyway?

Person 2: Just shut up before you say anything else stupid.
Scenario 3

Get the American Ignorancemug. The first people of North America. The word Indian has slid into uncomfortableness because of political correctness, but chill, Indians themselves prefer Indian over Native American. The reason being is that Native American can mean any indigenous inhabitant of the Americas, whereas Indian is used just for the first people of US and Canada. NOT OFFENSIVE.
Use Indian or American Indian (not Indian American) to refer to the first people of US and Canada
Use Native American or Amerindian to refer to the first people of North and South America and Greenland collectively.
Use Native American or Amerindian to refer to the first people of North and South America and Greenland collectively.

Hym "DO Americans love the monarchy? I don't know, I mean, maybe if you had a hot princess or something but nah... Don't give a fuck about a monarch. I find the insinuation that God would choose anyone other than me insulting! My genes are superior and my intellect is unparalleled! But I'll tell you what: If you get yourselves a hot princess... I will marry her and set the world proper. "

Get the American War Paintmug. An endurance sport similar to the Olympic Triathlon, however, instead of running, biking, and swimming, the disciplines competed in are Stock Car Racing (ie NASCAR,) Hot Dog Eating, and throwing (American) footballs through toilet seats.
