I would like to know of it is offensive to Americans when someone in a fireteam party says "Merica!" or refers to one as a "Murican". And not also when playing Destiny but also in this forum. I am not from the U.S. so I would like to know.
Last night doing the raid one party member blew himself up by firing a rocket launcher directly inside a Titan's shield, and when he laughed someone else said "...that's not funny...it may be to you because you hail from Murica!"... and I thought that was funny but did not laugh because silence ensued. Everyone kept quiet about it.
So is it an offense? The internet tells me Americans like to joke about it too, but I dont know if its the same as being called a bitch or an idiot.
Any thoughts?

You were in the wrong group my friend. For the most part no one cares. I know I don't. Much like our Canadian neighbors, we learned long ago that it's a joke. Though we aren't on the best of terms with them now after they sent us Justin Bieber... That's how they getcha. The are all nice and mannerly to you till you let you guard down. They have your trust now. You are weak and vulnerable. Bam! Now your stuck with an egotistical teenage shit head. It's like bein mesmerized by the flashy lights of Las Vegas and coming home with herpies.. What were we talking about again??
