According to The List, I ranked in the C class list. I think that this is a remarkable achievement, and aim to improve to the B list in time. This doesn't actually mean anything, apart from bragging rights.

(1) Ignorance - recently an American asked if Darren Rowse was anywhere near Cyclone Larry. Darren lives in Melbourne, Larry is in far north Queensland. Don't worry mate, your only a couple of thousand kilometres off (don't get me started on the imperial system)
(2) Arrogance - just because they're the worlds only remaining superpower doesn't mean that they are better than anyone else. In fact, I consider most countries superior to American in a lot of things, eg. friendliness, talent, skill.
(3) Strong arm action - they believe that using military tactics will give them everything. It might at the moment, but it is causing all the nations that they invade to hate them.
(4) Poor political decision - Americans voted for Bush. Enough said.
(5) Mess around with our language - I hate the way Americans have destroyed the honourable English language. First they screwed around with spelling (Mum, not Mom!) and they have an idiotic accent that instantly makes people angry.
(6) Cultural bullies - Americans try to push their culture onto everyone else. Take the TV show, the O.C. It is the worst show I have ever seen and yet it is being forced upon us. Bloody Americans!
(7) Gun control - in America you can walk around with a gun. What a great idea! How stupid could you be!!! No wonder people are constantly killing each other.
(8) Rap music - an American phenomena that I dislike immensely. I would not even call it music, but they lap it up.
(9) Celebrity worship - actors and singers are at the top of the American social ladder, despite the fact that they don't actually do anything.
(10) Oprah Winfrey - *shudders uncontrollably* - and I'm not the only one.
