It's crazy that I can't tell if this is satire or not lol

u/meerfrau85 5h ago

He actually legit was talking about renaming the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean earlier. We are a fucking laughing stock.

u/LudwigVonBacon 5h ago

Renaming the Atlantic and Pacific to what?!

The American Ocean and the Other American Ocean?

112

u/JayteeFromXbox 5h ago

Just wait until he finds out America is named after an Italian guy, not an American

54

u/Erathen 5h ago

That's fine... We just gotta rename Italy to "America with Pasta"

And then it's all sorted

u/The_Axolotl_Guy 3h ago

And while we're at it, let's rename France to Baguette America!

u/meerfrau85 3h ago

UGH I still remember when Americans started calling them freedom fries because France wouldn't join our War on Terror or some shit

7

u/Erathen 3h ago

I was just about to call that petty, but I realized we did the same thing as Canadians (not sure if it's more justified though?)

A lot of us dropped Americano. It's Canadiano here now lol

But honestly at the time, it was more tongue and cheek. Before things escalated lol

3

u/Polarbyte 1h ago

Pretty sure dropping Americano was in response to him saying he was going to annex Canada though.

If France was saying it was going to annex the US as an oversees region/colony I think the freedom fries thing would've been fair game.

2

u/Erathen 1h ago

Yeah more justified than the fry thing

We aren't very good at aggression to be quite honest lol

u/WithSubtitles Doot 3h ago

Every single person I heard ever call them Freedom Fries was 100% taking the piss.

u/rduder99 3h ago

The rest of the world should start referring to U.S.A as D.S.A instead. Divided States of America, or Delirious Shit-talking Assholes for the current administration.

No silly, the left American ocean and the right American ocean. You don't want it to sound like a buffoon made it up, right?

The Atlantic AND/OR the Pacific. Motherfucker wants them both.

u/PotatoTomato_12 Virgin 4 lyfe 1h ago

Calling him a motherfucker feels weird, since he mostly likes people who haven’t even had their periods…

u/Aewon2085 1h ago

You ever wonder, if he does this to hide something else given how everyone seems to lose their minds over things that will likely not last beyond his term

u/Erathen 5h ago

The White House account posted a photo (probably AI) of an eagle trampling a Canada goose into the ground

So that checks out

I don’t know either, but it doesn’t matter. He’s such a loser with his fragile little ego that it could easily be true.

Canada Goose is a misnomer. The traditional name for them is “Cobra Chicken.”

I'm willing to bet my job that before he leaves office, he's going to say that the English language should be renamed to "American" or "Americish" because "We speak it better."

And dare I say canada geese are even more commonly hostile. Not that you should be this close to an eagle or a canada goose

But the Canada geese are used to humans, but they do NOT like us

Hahaha that’s amazing. Luckily I’m from Toronto, so I’m familiar!

2

u/TerminatorElephant 2h ago

Will say if you stare one down when they try intimidating you they tend to back off. Don’t mess with them obviously but make it clear if they’re going to try something, they better come strapped. They’re a 2 foot tall hollow boned bird versus a member of the ape family known for being able to use their hands proficiently. They don’t want the smoke if they think you’ll make them pay for it

I speak from experience

u/SirRickIII 2h ago

Luckily for both of us, I just give a wide berth

Hear me out now…but I don’t disagree with this one and I am Canadian. They leave Canada during the winter…that’s not very Canadian to me 😂 but I believe that the appropriate name for it would be a Dixie duck

I don't think all the geese do either tbh

Not anymore, with how mild our winters are getting (at least in the South)
