what is america known for again?[edit]
I think america is also known for its terrible hollywood movies and distastful music. The french still love michal jackson. And russia releases our movies on demand for free to combat profit from movie privacy so much the world loves our movies. I often think that it is our one main industry of production that we truly have left. God forbid we start making crappy movies.... wait a moment.OMGwhatHaveIdone (talk) 09:44, December 20, 2013 (UTC)
Protection Works![edit]
Just to confrim major , protection works. I was gonna attempt to do the irresitable and apply a four word edit consisting of "we're listening to you" underneath modern controversy.
Some dark humor regarding the NSA...
MORE DARK HUMOAR! everyone that volunteers to particpate for wikipeda .... muhahaha on the insinuation. But seriously (sorta) I was gonna ad a note about the survellence ... exectly as quoted. Houston as the most awesome big borther signs, they are creppy as seen and literally say ala 1984 "Texas is watching you" Since those are government signs I can take a picture of one and that would be just fine for the media wiki and creative common and their would be no conflict right? then could I insert it here? If I went to the trouble of doing all that? Tilds, I forget to use them sometimes.... amongst many things. OMGwhatHaveIdone (talk) 09:52, December 20, 2013 (UTC)

Lead poisoning & tone 'inch' away from solving it.[edit]
Lead poisoning is a major and notable problem in Uncle Sam's Ass (USA). It is mainly done through intentional creation of shrapnel, using a device called a gun. They say they are an 'inch' away from solving the problem, which invariably raises the question of what that inch thing they are talking about. 203.129.48.224 10:02, March 21, 2015 (UTC)
US Americans think that "America" is the country's name.[edit]
Sequence of events:
- The New World is discovered by Europeans.
- They call all these new lands "America".
- The 13 British colonies established on the north of the America gain independence and call themselves "United States of America" (the reasons are obvious: they were united states located in the continent called America).
- US Americans start thinking that "America" is the name of the country, they begin to call it by that name and say there does not exist a continent called America...
Okay, I think this is all a big joke and is sufficiently offensive to be added to the article. Offensive to Americans (as they will be confused with the southern underdeveloped countries), offensive to Canadians (as it would mean being called Americans) and offensive to Latin Americans (since Americans do not care if the Americas have been called America in the past, in the English language). --Dbenndorf (talk) 01:21, July 8, 2016 (UTC)
