Originally posted by zeeblebotTo be honest, as a citizen of the US, it bothers me a little bit that we are called Americans - as if Mexicans and Canadians weren't Americans as well. I am not offended by it or anything. I just think it's a poorly chosen term.
there were a couple of posts in other threads complaining when people call U.S.ers "Americans".
