Of or related to the United States of America; term coined by Frank Lloyd Wright to refer to his new ideal for architecture. This word is preferable to "American" since there are dozens of countries in North and South America. In some Latin American countries, such as Brazil, the use of "American" to refer to US nationals is considered offensive and officially discouraged.
While Canadians and Usonians share a common heritage and close proximity, there are some subtle cultural differences.

Usanians 

People from or living in the USA. Characterized by silly smile, fat bodies, and neverending self-confidence. They hate Europe in most cases, and pray to Obama for salvation from the evil Second and Third World. The only country in the Middle East they know about is Iraq (and lately Iran). Good people, but ... there can be better.
A: Hey, friend, I was in California last week and I only could see Usanians, they were everywhere!
B: Normal, friend, California is in the USA, after all.
A: But they seemed to hate me when I said I was European.
B: Absolutely normal, friend, they usually think America is the best and nothing can beat it.
A: Someday these Usanians will quit leading the world, won't they?

Usonian is a alternative to American for a person, subject, of thing from the United States of American to better distinguish the USA from other modern and native nations of North and South America. The word Usonian was been coined by James Duff Law, a Scottishwriter born in 1865. The term is most know for the works of Frank Lloyd Wright.

"We of the United States, in justice to Canadians and Mexicans, have no right to use the title 'Americans' when referring to matters pertaining exclusively to ourselves."- Here and There in Two Hemispheres (1903).
John "Steel" Henry, Johnny Appleseed, and Paul Bunyan are all great cases of Usonian folklore.

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
