Isn't that only a fail if you think "America" starts at Canada and ends at Mexico?Originally Posted by crisaor
Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

Yes. That could also be considered a FAIL in itself. But I wasn't planning on being that thorough. IMO, most US natives think that way, so the America FAIL should be the first one to come to mind.

Canadians think that way too. If anyone calls us American, we get really offended and that's no lie. I've seen Europeans come over and refer to us as American and it never goes over well. I can't speak for Mexicans though.
