[QUOTE=Mayo Speaks!] I think the coin should be one of these: “America: We do not sleep. We _wait_.” “America’s chief export: pain.” “There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of creatures we have allowed to live.” Chuck Norris facts are still funny, dammit! [/QUOTE] I’ll see yer Chuck Norris and raise ya the ultimate American, G/Sgt R. Lee Ermey: **God plays His games. We play ours.** **Do we make you nervous?** **Can we be in CHARGE for a while?** **You are all equally worthless.** **Guts is enough.** [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/fifty-years-later-does-america-need-a-stupider-motto/386065.md?page=5)
