The following American words/phrases make me laugh:
- "Americans celebrate differences". (good for a chuckle)
- Name of a group: "Americans For The Arts". (laugh gets louder)
- "America, the culture of life". (Yeah right, as long as life is $. Another laugh.)
- "One Nation Under God". God's (or Jesus) picture should be on the dollar bill.
-"Americans value their freedoms". (Ho, ho ho! Americans value [worship] their guns, bibles and money.)

The only thing that is laughable is how stupid it is.

Well, it could have morphed into some Carlinesque "jumbo shrimp" and "non-stop flight" sort of thread, but I guess not...

Someone wants to rant about how stupid Americans are.

Visvaldis if you're in the USA I invite you to pack up and leave (probably won't because the nation they came from is worse than here). There are plenty of planes leaving daily to nations elsewhere.

You missed the nuances. I think it is whimsical. I miss George Carlin. I am astounded by the lack of humor with some people....

Hmm. I have neither a gun, a bible or money. Sounds like somebody's been drinking too many stereotypes.

But we're always glad to see someone laugh, wherever that superior place is that you are from.

Thanks for mocking, stereotyping, and insulting us all. You're welcome to leave any time you want.

Or, better yet, why not spend some time in our country - engage with all the money and the Bibles and the guns.

You might be surprised at who you find.
