This phrase was coined and publicized by the once cool punk band Green Day. Though it is often thought of as the "all-american" republican, it was really given a new meaning by all the followers of the song. Now, the term is more fitting to those who think that Green Day stuck up to "the man" when recording this CD, although they became extremely commercialized, and ultimately conformed to the capatalist society they were singing against. If you don't realize this, and you love the album, you're an american idiot.
So the other day, these hella conservative rednecks came up to my car and wanted to tell me how bringing a republican back into presidency would help us find jesus, so I just cranked up my American Idiot CD in their face and sped off.
Dude, YOU are the American Idiot

A shit album that should be paired with 39smoothed-out/slappy hours(or whatever the fuck those are called when packaged together,lol) and packaged and sold together as THE WORST OF GREEN DAY.
,
Green Day was doing so fucking good and they were maturing so well and then they went and released this piece of childish shit and went totally fucking emo on us.
,
Man,what the fuck happened to Green Day.They used to be so cool and laid back and best of all non-political.
,
And why are Green Day now putting out media propaganda and brainwashing people with their music when that is SUPPOSED to be exactly what the fuck they are against???
,
It's hypocritical and non-sensical to say the least.
American Idiot is one of the very worst Green Day CD's there is.They have alot of good CD that you could buy instead such as:
,
Kerplunk
Dookie
Nimrod
Insomniac
Warning
Shenanigans
,
Those all rock!

A highly combustible rectangular piece of material used throughout the world in place of fireworks.
The burning of this kindling material when performed in crowds usually causes great joy and elation to the people who see the occurance, who generally begin dancing and laughing with delight when viewing this activity.
There is only one place in the world where this activity is frowned on (The U.S.A) however most of the citizens of this particular location do not recognise the rest of the world as valid independent nations.
Dave turned on the TV to watch the 9 O'Clock news.
There was some kind of celebration taking place in the Middle East with lots of dancing, laughter and American Flag burning.

A word obviously disliked by most of the people on urban dictionary for being 'politically correct'. While that may be true, it is no less 'proper english' than the use of the word black for people who are usually varying shades of brown and tan.
If the word is so detestable maybe we shouldn't use hypenated-american terms at all. Should we refer to chinese americans as yellows now? Or JFK as the first redhead catholic president?
The truth is that african-american is suited to some situations and black is suited to other situations. Just like caucasian americans are routinely refered to both as white and by terms like 'english-american'. Just because africans were brought on ships hundreds of years ago doesn't make that heritage any less important to a black person as european heritage to a white person.

African is a useful term for implying geographical heritage. There are people in South East Asia who for all purposes look like what we know as 'black people'. When refering to the geographical origin of the american black population african-american is a useful term.

1) The term mistakeningly used by people who see fit to walk on eggshells around a Black Americans out of fear of offending them. In reality, a person may actually offend a Black/African American person more because they assume that they will be offended by Black.
2) A term used to formally describe an American ethnic group. This specific group uses this term mostly in formal situations and Black in casual situations but most could care less about which one is used to describe them.
3) The only term used to describe an American ethnic group that is constantly debunked, although this particular American ethnic group are only seen as Americans when it's convenient.
1) Girl 1: Yeah that was such a cute Bla.... I mean African American guy!
Girl 2: You know, you don't have to say African American. Black isn't offensive.
2) Guy 1: Do you prefer Black or African American?
Guy 2: Either is fine, just not Nigger.
3) After the tsunami and earthquake in Japan, people noticed how organized and orderly the Japanese were. When speculators tried to use the comparison between how Americans reacted to disaster after Hurricane Katrina and how the Japanese reacted, these were the popular responses:
"Japan didn't have any looting because there were no Blacks."
"Only Blacks and Latinos were looting the stores"
"It wasn't Americans who did the looting, it was "African-Americans""
Why these responses? Because African-Americans are less American than all others and become American enough when it's convenient.
Rap=Black music
Blues=American music (although it was also made by Black/African Americans)

What most americans are. Some who is AI may do any of the following:
1. use "gay" as a general insult.
2.tlkz lik dis on de intrntz.
3. lack basic school knowledge (i met a guy on the internet who didn't know what a compound word is.)
4. hate on famous people (like Justin Beiber) ot of jealousy.
