I was curious, so I googled it... that stupid chick got 4th... I have a degree in Geography. God I wanted to rip out her windpipe!
So what do you do for a geography degree anyway? commit a map of the globe to memory?

That seems like a bizarre question to ask at a beauty pageant anyway.U.S. Americans
It's a Miss USA Pageant, so the winner is supposed to go around helping people and stuff. It doesn't end with the crowning supposedly. Every year, the previous winner has some montage of the shit they did around the country. Usually helping clean stuff and talk to kids.

Well, right now I'm a road inspector for one of my local counties. But I want to get into a job with the county as a Cartographer.

Canadians are Americans, so are Mexicans, as well as all the people in South America.
United States of America. America being the name of the continent. That's got hazy and lost over time.

There was much rejoicing when Mortious said this:
No, but "American" has become widely used slang. I was just explaining why. Because it's noon and I have nothing to do and I'm bored.
Oh god, I'm been hanging out with goonfleet too much. I almost posted and you're a faggot without thinking about it.

Probably because "America" is in our name, and not anyone else's, sort of like how Koreans are called Koreans even though they may be from the "People's Republic of" or something, or how no one knows how to address Englishmen because there are too many god damn names.

We're the only country of any significance on this continent, so we're the Americans and nobody else is.

And naming conventions for countries with similar names tend to be contextual or, by default, based on the prevalence of said country. There may be another "United States of" whatever out there, but generally if people say "The United States" it is assumed they mean the United States of America.
Gets even weirder when you jump languages. In English, referring to the "E.U." generally refers to the "European Union" but look on products in the grocery store (for instance) and "E.U." usually means "Estados Unitos", which is of course the shorthand Spanish for United States. I would not want to be the translator for the United Nations.

Stating the obvious is a great way to make jokes. Because, really, you might as well assume that of all the people who read this thread, the dumbass that can't get humor probably isn't you.
