United Statian

A United Statian (or simply Statian) is a person from the United States of America, since the term American refers to any person in the western hemisphere.

As the example above points out, if there was a country in Africa called "United States of Africa" then anyone from Africa would be an African not just people from that country.

Here is also another example; people from the United Arab Emirates are called "Emiratis" why aren't they called "Arabs" if they have the term Arab in their name? simply, because it overlaps with the other Arabs, in the same way the term American only to refer to US citizens overlaps with all the other Americans.

The United Statian (State-ian) government has declared war on Iraq.

Statians are among the friendliest people in the world.

Get the United Statian mug.

Chester Subway Station

In Toronto, Canada, it is by far the softest subway station in a city that is not quite soft. Usually crime and other mischevious activites go down at subway stations, however Chester station is in a soft neighborhood, so nothing ever goes down. It is between Withrow and Riverdale Park, hence its softness. Black people are rarely seen here.

Peter "I saw this nigga get smoked at the subway yesterday"
You "Nothing ever goes down when i use the subway"
Peter "what staion you use?"
You "Chester Subway Station"
Peter "Soft"
