Americocentrism

1. The mindset that the United States/U.S. culture is the default and the immediate assumption that everything pertains to it unless stated otherwise.

2. Thinking that the U.S. is the centre of the universe and everything revolves around it.
Americocentrism is pretty easy to find, especially on the internet.

Ex. 1: A reddit user is talking about an experience of theirs and mentions that they went out drinking with some friends when they were 18-20 and some commenter thinks that they were drinking illegally despite the fact that OP never mentioned what country they were in, or what the legal drinking age is.
Ex. 2: Someone tells you that you spelled "centre" wrong.
Ex. 3: Someone who thinks that America is better than every other country and assumes that every other country wants to be America.

girl grip 

The ability girls and women have developed to hold several items at once in one hand. The skill has been developed due to the lack of pockets in women's clothing.
I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
