Wait, when Americans go to other countries, we aren't suppose to beat our chest and expect all to yield to our greatness, driven by testosterone and a feeling of superiority?

I'm all for patriotism. But this isn't like when the Yankees come to town and you tell the guy next to you from NYC to eat sh$t and die because he's wearing a Jeter jersey.

It's almost like many people here have the same mentality of Kim Jong-il‎ - "We are the supreme leaders of all. The entire world is against us, when they should be bowing to our might."
