--- Quote from: IsaacKronenFaust on January 23, 2011, 03:18:49 PM ---Way to be a dumbass foreigner and call United States citizens "Americans" when that refers to Mexicans, Canadians, Brazilians, etc., anyone living in the North and South America. --- End quote --- Actually Americans refers to people from the United States. Sure America is 2 continents, but that is just how it came out. There is not any other alternative to "American" besides "person from the US" which is too long to write. |

I was just there to retaliate. Of course it sort of turned into some kind of piss-take eventually, apparently not typing in an idiotic manner meant I was entirely excluded. Biased hypos. :3 |
