Just be American.
No need for a prefix, it's time to grow up and embrace your own identity.

I see what you're saying tho', JP. It's almost as if those that choose to describe themselves with a prefix are qualifying being American. As if being American is a bit embarrassing so to make their nationality somewhat more palatable, it needs to be tempered with a more agreeable nationality.
Unless it's Poland, then you're just a Polack. It seems that America collectively concurs that Poland is the only country less desirable to hail from than America itself :(
Wooooooo!!!
Go Gerry, go Gerry!!!
Never diss the Polish.
They fought like fuck against the nazis long before the Americans, Canadiains, French, Greeks, Welsh, or anyone else if truth be fucking told.
Fuck you America with your "Polack" jokes. Put up a proper fight against an oppressor then come back and talk about it.
I really can't blame you all for being confused; it's all down to the idiotic political correctness that demands we "remember we are all immigrants", much as we are required to "remember slavery", "remember how we jobbed the natives", etc., etc., etc.
I'm all for history and whatnot, but this ongoing guilt-trip is for assholes, and I don't buy it.
You have my permission to desist as well. :whistling
Typical mongrel. :whistlingQuote:
