First poll, hur hur~
It's funny. I was bored procrastinating, then the randomest thought occurred to me...
Hey self,
How American are you?
Cuz really, I'm not racially(wow that was a bad typo) an American, but I'm not a die-hard PRican, either. I'm a total gringa, and my Passport says "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" right on it. (That's thanks to the 'Jones Law', btw. PR History has taught me something, how 'bout that?)
I did a quick search in Google and all the quizzes for 'How American Are You?' are cliche 'are you a gun-toting, beer drinking, red-state dude who speaks American' style quizzes, so...
Help me out! What do you think defines 'an American'? Do you wear 'sneakers' and pronounce Z as zee not zed? (But actually less cliche would be better)
I might turn it into a meme or something.
[Poll #1341227]
s-sob. I really need a paid account. So many cool icons, so little space to put them in...
EDIT: You know what's really American? The TV I watch. As far as TV's concerned, I am American in that I can understand almost every popculture reference on the big network's shows. And yet (this is what clinches it for me) a lot of these big networks block Puerto Rico from their online content! Pisses me off like you wouldn't believe!
