I want to hear what insults you have heard others using to refer to americans
Ooooh we HATE it when you call us “pretty boy whom I long to hug and kiss” just so fucking much even typing it out has got me quaking with rage
I am absolutely turgid with rage when someone calls me that.
lmao typical cutie. you people are all so handsome it is unfathomable. you know what go touch some grass and make every passerby’s day by the simple fact that they get to see you.
Shipped.
What do you call someone who speaks three languages? Trilingual.
What do you call someone who speaks two languages? Bilingual.
What do you call someone who speaks one language? An American.
“Americans”.
Fucking devastating.
My favourite is
seppo
???
It’s Cockney rhyming slang. If you want to come up with a slang term for a something, you take something that rhymes “yank → septic tank” and then cut it down “septic tank → seppo”
Jeebus, that’s a lot of work. “Americans are loud and smell bad” seems so much easier.
Maybe Americans are
lazytime efficient with their communications. What a zinger.Part of the point (the whole point?) of rhyming slang is that it’s opaque and convoluted. That’s what makes it fun. It also makes it a bit of a shibboleth - you only understand it if you’re part of the culture.
If you’re eating with an Australian and they ask you to “pass the dead horse”, it means they think you’re Aussie enough to know what it means. Or they know that you won’t know what it means and they’re fucking with you intentionally.
Idk man ‘American’ is a slur in like half the world
The term “Yank” is incredibly loaded with all kinds of stereotypes the world over, but it has a very different meaning in the US.
What kind of bait is this bullshit question? I don’t know. Get creative, you witless hack. ✌️
-A fucking human
Haha, Americans are fat. I mean, it’s true: American obesity is about 40 percent. I blame wheat.
It’s probably the government-subsidized corn syrup but wheat works too
There are a over 48 million African Americans, so does anyone know some insulting words or phrases people use against them?
Then we can move on to the > 60 million Latinos (there will be some overlap).
It’s important to recognize US diversity when dreaming up insults.
Or you know, you could not focus on race, and just insult Americans as a group … oh wait, is that your insult?
“I object to the term ‘loud-mouth American’. It’s a tautology.” --Magda S. in Fast Forward (maybe?)
Yankee, Yank, Yanqui
Seppo I guess but that doesn’t hit as hard because silly
“Freedumb” is another one that’s too silly to really be offensive
Rule 1. Locking.
In china people think foreigners have big noses

I’ve mostly heard ‘yanks’ in English. I don’t know if Japanese slang specifically has a word for USian foreigners as most situations don’t really care about which country and, if more specificity than ‘foreigner’ is required, it’s usually going to be some adjective/descriptor (loud, rude, skin_color_here, etc. in the case of people being those things).
