Generic America. Those things which are the same no matter which city you are in and deprive that city of character.
Coca-Cola,
K-mart,
7-11, and
McDonalds, are part of Generica. Corporations interested in nation-wide branding are at the root of it, but one can now leave the U.S. and still find themselves in Generica.
Example: "
It took me a minute to figure out what town I was in, since the mall was filled with Generica."
