'American'

Since when is 'American' the proper demonym for a resident of the USA? To me, an American is a Mexican, a Canadian, a Brazilian, a Chilean, a Peruvian, a Nicaraguan, and anyone else I have forgotten that resides in the American Continent. This ignorance just pisses me off. It's ancient to me. The USA is NOT the center of the earth!
