Important Issue 4

(first written 11-13-2005)

There is a problem in this world that is left in the corner of society. The problem is the idea of origin. If you’re from the United States, you’re an American. How egotistical is that? People from Canada are also American, but they aren’t associated with it. Another thing wrong with Canada is the pronunciation of Canadians. Mexico has Mexicans; Italy has Italians: Germany as Germans. See a pattern here? The way the country is spelled, so are the people that are from there. But no… Canada has to be difficult. They have to use different enunciation on their syllables to be Canadians. Assholes. People from Spain are another group like Canada. They call themselves Spaniards. Lame.

Another thing interesting is the ‘ese’ ending people. Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese and New Zealandese (Hey! What are you supposed to call it? New Zealanders? That just sounds weird). Now the one thing in common between the names of Japan, China, and Vietnam (fuck New Zealand for now. The only thing they were good for was the ‘Lord of the Rings’. And now that’s over with) is that they all have an ‘n’ and an ‘a’ sound at the end. No other countries have that in their ending. It may be an ‘n’ but with no ‘a’ near it or vise-versa. Example: Canada. See the ‘a’ at the end? But no ‘n’ near it… think about that and then just assume I’m right. There are of course exceptions such as Iran and Iranians but if they were Iranese, they would never be suspected of having nuclear weapons. Only for stealing jobs and selling us cheap and efficient porn-os.

Before we get to the last point I’d like to say that Austrian and Australian are two simple letters away from each other and if I mess up the fact I should be forgiven.

Another interesting fact is that since the ‘an’ rule applies for most places, some can prove hilarious. For instance: if someone is from Crete (an island in Greece), they are a Cretan. Ummm… there aren’t really any others… I just wanted to tell people they were Cretans without getting in trouble.
