What sorts of things would you consider \'unamerican\'?
 

Fellow 2p2er Duke was chatting with a friend on AIM, when that friend brought up out of the blue the fact that he hates the Fonz on Happy Days. Duke and I were, of course, aghast, and Duke joked that his friend should be put on a 'no-fly' list for an opinion like that.

So that got me thinking... what sorts of things would you consider just flat-out unamerican? I think hating the Fonz qualifies - I mean c'mon, who hates Fonzie?

Duke suggested hating baseball, but I disagree. Baseball's not for everyone, I can understand that.

He then suggested hating MacGyver, to which I thoroughly agree. Anyone that's got a problem with MacGyver should be executed for treason.

So what are some others?

It's disappointing that people already threw out some political replies. It would have been fun for OOT if we kept it humorous.

I'm sorry that people will see Kirk as the embodiment of the military-industrial complex, but the guy was smart enough to beat the Kobayashi Maru test and nail a lot of green poonani. A true American renaissance man.

I'm all about leaving early to beat traffic, but I'll never get the people who leave early from a close game at the end of the game. What was the use of even showing up?
