Everyone is a 'yankee' to the foreigner.

In 1962 around the time of Bay of Pigs there was a lot of Anti-American activity in Mexico City with "yanqui go home" scrawled on walls. A Texas girl I knew told about being on a bus tour with some New York type guy trying to make points with her. He pointed out one of these displays and asked what she thought of it. She told him "Oh Honey, they don't mean US!"
