  • I said nothing of the sort you gishgalloping pissrag. My point is purely down to time frame, the Haitians and Mexicans had simply not won their independence from the European powers when the US claimed its name, nothing more nothing less.

    Probably didn’t help that there was and arguably is no proper name for the Eastern coast of the US even now let alone back then. Sure some sub-regions have terms but there’s no proper noun for them to latch onto for naming convention so they simply went with the only thing they had in common, the fucken continent.

    But I digress. I can tell you want to fight about this or that and bitch about American exceptionallism but you ain’t gonna find it with me. My ancestors were fucked by the feds and I’m fucked by the feds, I wish for nothing more than the destroy this rotting empire I have had the misfortune of being born under. To see it’s rivers bled scarlet, it’s fields salted, and it’s capitol with a big ol’ mushroom cloud above it a genocide in all but ethnicity, culture, or religion. Now how’s bout you find an actual target for your pissfit rather than a hick who thinks your reasoning is shit.


  • The failures and successes of the revolution are kinda irrelevant as to who broke away from the European powers first, Haiti and Mexico came second and third. The politics outside of that have no bearing on the naming convention therein. It really does just come down to dibs at that point.

    Personally I don’t like identifying people by continent since it’s clunky and stupid, similarly I’d rather not label people based on the political entity they live under. Region, ethnicity, culture, and religion is all fine in my opinion since those all have characteristics that can be identified rather than whatever shit stained flag happens to be flying at any time. For example I am a Californian and more specifically an Inland Imperial, but I will rarely if ever identify with the US outside of entirely practical reasons since quite frankly I want to see the USA reduced to the same category as the HRE that is to say dead.

    Oh I entirely agree on the naming thing, it’s fucken stupid. There’s a Victoria 2 mod called Divergence of Darkness that does that, South America is called Ameriga (America) while I believe North America is called Arcadia or some shit can’t remember. Personally I wish a convention could be done by the various North American states to find a better fucken name, personally I’m a fan of Appalachia-Laruntine, or however you spell that second word because I’m lazy.














  • I got into a car crash and went to the ER to get an X-ray done to make sure nothing was off, not this was a week after the crash. Anyways hurt like a bitch and after awhile of waiting the X-ray gets done and the tech just kinda looks at it for a minute, turns to me and says “Two bits of good news, your knee is just inflamed and swollen no breaks, also Ive been doing this for awhile and your bone density is absurd” which is how I found out that I’m a freak of nature who has borderline unbreakable bones. Explains why I struggle to swim in fresh water so much.
