And yet, if a Canadian or a Mexican claimed to be "American", the same people who decry the use of the phrase "USian" - which I loathe on an aesthetic base, and prefer the term "US citizen" - would similarly jump on those people for 'insulting' their entitlement to it.
North Suran wrote:["The Romulan Republic"]Insisting on treating anyone in North America not of "First Nations" decent as an invader or outsider is not merely offensive, but socially damaging.
I highly doubt that using the term "USian" is going to cause the USA to revert into a racially-determined hierarchial order.

I call myself an American. I really don't care how anyone feels about either term. We all know which country both are referring to.

A flaw you would be aware of if you've studied the issue.
Even if you firmly support the Bering Strait theory, you need to recognise the problems, particularly with time frame and routes, both of which are still under great debate. I thought it was general practice to use the word 'science' in relation to facts, not hotly contested possibilities.

But... Canadians!
They're sooo, amm, so sort of just not anything about anything, other than the Quebecois, who are just French and annoying.
I think most people just die of boredom in Canada, they lose the will to live. I certainly get that feeling at any Canadian gathering.

Finnish people, from my experiences in Europe, are just fucking weird enough to make this fact completely solid and obvious from what I've seen with Finnish people. I dunno about Norway, but I've heard it is has the welfare-state-self destruction cycle coupled with the Scandinavian tendency for heavy alcohol consumption and long hikes through the woods in overcast skies and that sort of mental imagery.

The best place to live can depend heavily on your socio-economic status as well, so being poor in the USA is much worse than being poor in Sweden, but being rich in the US is far better than being rich in Sweden (speaking very generally here).
