So, you are a USian. I thought so. I never ever heard someone saying "February 27th 2018", I think only USians do that. Everywhere else it is 27th of February 2018 which is logical.

No, I'm American, and I just gave you three good reasons to stop using "USian," not the least of which being that "US" is not exclusive to the United States of America. Are people from the ~~United States of Mexico~~ United Mexican States USians as well?

I don't have the audacity to try and force a different demonym onto you, please don't do that to me.

No, I'm American

I have no doubt you are an American as much as people from Mexico, Venezuela or Brazil are Americans. The same as people from Germany, Spain or Italy are Europeans.

United States of Mexico

There is no such thing.

Mexico's name is the United Mexican States.

I know. He apparently doesn't but that doesn't surprise me - USians are usually ignorant about anything outside of their borders.
