America: It KNOWS how to do things.

"It used to be BAD to say “I can’t do it.” We played games on the freakin’ schoolgrounds where YOU WON. Yeah, somebody else lost, but you talked trash for a little bit and then you went back into class together and at the next recess the teams were different. You might lose gracefully, but it was NEVER OKAY TO LOSE. Quitters? Momma’s boys who ran crying after getting tagged with a wickedly thrown dodgeball or who sniffled and walked off when they had to play deeeeeep right field? We had a name for them. Loser was one of the more benign names. You might lose, but you won if you played at all."
