african american express

First used by Kanye West. Slang for AmEx's "Black Card"

I went to the malls and I balled too hard
'Oh my god, is that a black card?'
I turned around and replied, why yes but I prefer the term

American Card

Similar to the race card, this has been a phenomena in the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens used by non-U.S. athletes or by fans of non-U.S. teams as to why an American wins a gold medal or why an American finishes above another country's athlete. The claim is that the IOC is in collusion with the U.S. teams and predetermines results when the truth is that after the 2002 scandals in Salt Lake, the IOC is very anti-American at this point. It serves a double purpose:

1) To justify a loss from an athlete.

2) To voice anti-American sentiment had by athletes, staff, and fans since before the games began.

Prime example: Svetlana Khorkina says the reason she didn't win the All-Around was because she wasn't American.

Another example: S. Koreans are attacking Americans for the scoring error more than the judges that committed the error. Where were they when judges from France and Russia were in collusion to guarantee their skaters gold medals?

American Idol

A stupid, overrated karaoke show that shouldn't have even been on the air in the first place.

I'll bet the American Idol 'judges' can't even sing as well as they can criticize.

American Taliban Beard

(n) Not to be confused with the Hipster Beard, or the Charles Manson Beard, the American Taliban Beard is a full beard worn with a shaved head.

Named after John Walker Lindh, the "American Taliban" homegrown terrorist who is serving a 20 year sentence for joining the Taliban and fighting against the US in Afghanistan.

Muslim men who are performing the Hajj to Mecca and Jihadis who are planning to commit suicide bombings often shave their heads, but leave their beards so that they are clean when they ride the magic carpet to Allah and their 72 virgins.

The American Taliban Beard is the laziest haircut a man can have. Never have to comb your hair & never have to shave.

Futebicha Americano

It's a way that many Brazilians use to call the american football or football as it called in the USA. It can be translated as "footfag". Most of us think it is a gay thing, and they also think it supposed to be called handball, because the football players rarely use their feet.

Homem 1: "Bando de viados, isso é só uma desculpa para os viados se agarrarem! Essa merda devia se chamar futebicha americano."
Homem 2: "Concordo, essa merda é coisa de viado!"

Guy 1: "Bunch of fags; that's just an excuse for fags grab each other! This shit supposed to be called footfag."
Guy 2: "I agree; this fucking shit is such a gay thing!"

The Neo African Americans

The Neo African Americans is a term used by documentary filmmaker Kobina Aidoo to describe recent, voluntary immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean. In an interview with CNN, he revealed that his working title was The New African Americans until he realized that many of the respondents did not consider themselves African American, so he changed New to Neo. In his words, "new with a twist."

The Neo African Americans is a living documentary; it’s never really finished. It’s a conversation—a conversation about how rapid, voluntary immigration from the Caribbean and, especially, Africa is transforming the African American narrative.
