Description Now this is serious, what the shit is going on in people's minds to think THIS is a anime?

This was not created in Japan, the art style is far from resembling the art style of a Japanese animation, the characters are not Japanese, is not developed and animated by Japanese people, does not demonstrate Japanese culture... Anyway, just because a person likes a cartoon, that's no reason to say that it's a anime.

I know, "anime" means "animation" in Japanese language, but people simply treat Adventure Time as in the level of franchises like Naruto, Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon. Even at conventions about anime and Japanese culture this show is present, I find this ridiculous and unnecessary.

Look at another example: cartoons like Avatar and Totally Spies were pretty much based and inspired on animes, even the art style is similar, yet no one treats them as real animes. Sorry if this is going too far, but after 6 years this show still remains a cancer present in everywhere.

...people seriously think that a WESTERN MADE animated series is an anime?

There is nothing wrong with people comparing Adventure Time with other well known animes.

Except when people consider this junk a real anime, I've had enough of seeing Adventure Time in everything related to anime, including on sites to watch online and even Japanese culture events (at a point that was even compared to the same level of Pokemon and Dragon Ball).

That's not offensive either though.

How is comparing Adventure Time to some well known animes "grotesque" and "ridiculous", people have the right to express their opinions. There is nothing wrong about you hating AT or thinking it is not on par with shows like Dragon Ball Z or Sailor Moon, but you should respect the fact people think AT is on par with such animes, because it is an opinion.

Expressing opinion is not the same as acting like a noob and force nonsense comparisons. What do you think if I compare Adventure Time with Caillou and Dora the Explorer?

About Cory in the House being a anime, that was just a stupid meme they created on the internet. It's different from Adventure Time that is taken seriously by the fanbase about being an anime. This is even present in events about anime, stores and websites of subtitled anime. Also I can not forget the thousands of fanarts that exist with the characters designed in manga style.

Generally I find the term "anime" is used quite loosely. As you said it does mean "animation" so pretty much any cartoons can be an anime. People constantly debate about if for something to be classed as an anime it has to be made IN JAPAN or just in a "anime style". This is also the cause of some controversy over are 3D animation that claim to be animes.
 Example of an "anime" made in japan but not in the art style 'Panty and Stocking'.
 Example of a 3D "anime" which is kinda themed to be like anime 'RWBY'.
 Finally I watch my cartoons on a website called "Anime Flavour" however it has western cartoons on it.

People have to be able to differentiate the genres and countries of origin from which each of them comes.

After all, it's not because a cartoon is good that it should be automatically considered an "anime" rather than a cartoon like everyone else. I say this just because the term anime has been used in vain in recent years, even so it does not change my mind about the fact that I hate Adventure Time with my body and soul.
