| First off I'm no patriot I think this country has a ton of flaws and their are better places to live, and I have no issue with someone criticizing my country if it's constructive and thoughtful, but referring to America as Murica or American citizens as Muricans well it just makes you sound like youre 12. I mean most of you are smart enough to know the Damn Daniel meme is stupid and not particularly funny so why would you think saying Murica is clever or humurous? I know the term was made to make fun of southern accents and patriotism though I assume most of you use it because you like to think Americans are all stupid and immature which ignoring the fact that's an ignorant generalization when you say Murica it makes you yourself look stupid and immature. I've seen this image pop up several times on this site and I feel this appropriate.  |

| its just a meme derive from how americans pronounce it as "murica" instead of "ah-merika" |
| Murica is how rednecks say America. It's making fun of them. Although I do hate it though because rednecks only make up a minority of Americans. |

Flevalt said: Black humor can be clever though like in Life of Brian. Constantly making fun of the way southerners pronounce the name of their own country isn't particularly clever. Also it's probably more common to see Americans who think it's cool to hate their own country.I find the term to be funny. The same way I find black humor funny. I wouldn't be so sure that most people using the term use it sarcastically or jokingly though. US citizens clinging onto patriotism is not a rare sight. |

People just stereotype Americans by one type of American. A lot don't realize there are different subcultures in america. |
| it's a meme. usually used for sarcasm, |
cumshotz said: Never said it was a big deal just saying it make people sound like immature children when they say it. Also most of the time I see it used people aren't even discussing American patriotism.the term originates from nixon. the way i see it it's just making fun of blind patriotism in a cheeky way. not really a big deal. |
|
| Some people here sucked the joke factor out of it and are using it casually which is kind of obnoxious. Like if you're going to use the term, at least use it how it was intended to be |

I understand youre feeling that this 'Murica meme is a little overused but i havent really gotten this feeling on MAL. |
