A popular Russian mildly pejorative term for USA citizens, often imagined as a stereotypical fat American patriot. In the plural form it may mean the whole USA.
Originated from Kosovo war in 1999. Russian peacekeeping force soldiers called American soldiers pindos or pendos because they looked funny and fat, like penguins, in full combat ammunition.

-Dear officers. I'm politely asking you to stop calling pindos by "pindos". They are very offended by this
