Carlin’s last HBO special (been hearing clips from it lately), he talked about the whole “Proud to be an American” thing. Maybe “Happy to be an American”, but it’s an accident of birth, not an accomplishment.
“Proud to be 5-11”, “Proud to be Irish”, “Proud to be prone to colon cancer” - not likely.
And “Pride goeth before a fall” - mustn’t forget Proverbs.
