The 'Merica Thread

Some of us here are American....



We like our guns, bacon, fat, grease, and freedom....

We also like to laugh. (Some of us)

This is partly inspired by the old "In Soviet Russia" Thread that I found a while back. The 'Merica Meme is one of the best out there since it's (IMHO) pretty darn true and they can be pretty funny. Anybody have any good ones?



Guy in a motorized wheelchair with a gun screaming for canned bacon? I have seen this happen...but not for canned bacon.

When the Germans fire, the British duck;
When the British fire, the Germans duck;
When the Italians fire, nobody ducks;
And when the Americans fire, EVERYBODY ducks.

Of all the images representing America, posted is a guy in an electric wheelchair with a gun demanding bacon?

Never heard this one before, but I do know this children rhyme:

Jeder Schuß ein Russ'
jeder Stoß ein Franzos',
jeder Tritt ein Brit',
jeder Klaps ein Japs,
Serbien muss sterbien,

(jeder .... ein Ami').

"Every shot one of the Russians,
every thrust one of the Frenchmen,
every kick one of the Britons,
every slap one of the Japanese,
Serbia must die".

But what word rhymes with "Ami" ('merican)?
Not easy.

May be "Tsunami"? Or "Chrash-test dummy"?

@ Dan D

Oh yeah? Here's a favorite oldie for you:

Heaven:
All the police are British,
All the chefs are Italian,
All the lovers are French,
All the mechanics are German,
And everything's run by the Swiss.

Hell:
All the police are German,
All the chefs are British,
All the lovers are Swiss,
All the mechanics are French,
And everything's run by the Italians.



To which I will add:
In America we have both sides of all those things, so we have Heaven and Hell at the same time. Ain't life grand?

Sleeveless shirt,Budweiser in a bottle cozy,and Marlboro in hand that there is a true M'erican.Tremble in fear world!!
He is about to go buy $100.00 in scratch of tickets freedom baby!

P.S. I cant stand it when people say U,S and A it makes me want to knock out the 8 teeth that they still have.Of course that would likely
result in his family and friends declaring a blood feud against me which is just fine with me with all those people after me I will be facing a full set of teeth.
