    Yank meaning & definition 1 of Yank.


  • A word used by Brits, Aussies, and various others to refer to Americans. Connotation can range from affectionate to pejorative. Often associated with tired stereotypes of Americans being, of course, fat and stupid people who all drive Hummers and love George Bush (all 32% of us!) and cant locate the planet Earth on a map.
    Ironically, within the States, the term is used by the people who best fit said stereotype as a pejorative term for educated, left-leaning urban Northerners.

    Yank meaning & definition 8 of Yank.


  • Me. I dont mind being called a Yank, since us Yankees winning the American Civil War and keeping the country together (no thanks to the British) is part of my familys heritage. Thanks for reminding me. I dont particularly mind being called fat and stupid either, because Im not. So go right ahead. I get my news on the internet from various sources, making sure to check the left and the right, and I dont watch TV, so go ahead and call me ignorant or brainwashed or whatever. Oh, Im racist redneck, too. So racist that my best friend is asian american and another of my close friends is from Singapore. I guess I am a bit of a redneck, though, I like to fix my own car when I can and generally be self-reliant.
    Im an American and I love my country. If you can accept that, I have nothing against you. If not, you can go fuck yourself, because in the end, it just doesnt matter if you hate America. Doesnt matter at all.
