Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Actually yeah means yeah not no

Maybe try reading more than three words

So, no. But I can tell you one thing - your lot reminds me of Homer Simpson telling Lisa "yes Lisa, native Americans like us".

You are as much American as people from Brasil, Venezuela or Mexico. You are simply trying to appropriate the name which doesn't belong to you.

First, so I know that you read it, I'm going to repeat what I said earlier. At some point, you have to look back at this conversation and think "I got really fucking aggressive just because this guy said a date differently from how I do, and it makes me look like a twat."

Second, more important to my point, USian is not my demonym, and you don't get to decide that it is. That's really all I should have said this entire time.

USian is not my demonym

Do you live in the USA? That means you are a USian. It is not that difficult.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No, I'm American.

Yes, you are. The same as for example people from Brasil or Mexico.

All these countries are in America, USians are the same Americans as Mexicans or Brazilians.
