One doesn't have to be a "hater" to note that there's a lot of North and
South America that isn't the US.

Canadians, Brazilians, Mexicans, Peruvians, etc., all call themselves by
their country name. Only US citizens have enough chutzpah to appropriate
the name of two continents for themselves.

OTOH, it's really difficult to come up with a reasonable name using "US"
as the root - "I'm a USer" definitely gives the wrong impression :-).

Canuckistanis sometimes refer to manufactured products as

"Made by Us, eh?"
