Sure sure sure. Canada day was all the rage, and it took little old me to post a July 4th thread? Lazy Americans tounge.gif .

 

I hope everyone had fun weekends celebrating, or still have plans to celebrate today/tonight. Try not to lose any fingers.

Happy "Indepence Day" to "My Fellow Americans", especially those who were "Born on the 4th of July", since it's extra special for you.

So enjoy the "Fireworks", but try not to get "Heatstroke", which may be a challenge, since I know how "Some like it hot".

You should try this city, since this is where it all began. We take it pretty serious, and our 4th of July celebrations go all weekend with the big finisher tonight. I don't go out, because it is just too crazy. I'm going to miss the Earth, Wind, and Fire concert, but I am able to see the big fireworks display from my house.

people in Hartford are confused, all the fireworks were last night! But seriously, there was some pretty big firepower coming from a small street just around the corner last night.

 

Happy 4th of July to all!

Getting drunk as usual, cooking out with family and friends, and lighting things on fire. Mainly getting drunk, though.

We go out in the street and goose-step while burning British flags and ingesting hallucinogens.

Listening to music extra loud, throwing explosives at one-another, smoking a bunch of green stuff, firing weapons, more explosives.

 

Also the traditional state-wide demolition derby of course.

We have a raffle for which country we should covertly destabilize with an alphabet agency, then re-stabilize with an open military operation.

 

Happens every year. Enjoy.

Congratulations to the United States of America, who on this day 235 years ago, rejected their title of Bitch of the British Empire and who, throughout the years, became one of the most powerful countries in the world. While you are still a young nation, you have certainly seen your fair share of triumphs and tragedies in a short time. While as a Canadian I sometimes find myself at odds with decisions of your government that seem to interfere with Canadian sovereignty or where our country gets the short of the stick, for the most part, I have nothing against the United States and on this day, I wish you all a Happy Independence Day.

 

Just don't dare try and make an attempt to invade us again like you did in the War of 1812. We* took Washington, D.C. once and we'll do it again! tounge.gif

 

*I realize we were still part of the British Empire at the time, but I still like to think of it as Canada.

Well there wont be that amazing fireworks show in Arizona. Unless you count the ''fire safe'' fireworks. Whatever the hell they turn out to be! Other than that I've been celebrating since Friday and well, don't think I'll be going out to celebrate tonight or today. Might be able to see the fireworks from where I live now but I'm not counting on anything. I'm going to be chilling and probably watch Forrest Gump smile.gif

WELCOME TO ERF.

 

Spent last night getting drunk with some Belgians, singing Bruce Springsteen, and shooting fireworks off of my buddy's apartment building roof downtown. Good precursor to ID4. Today I might get some wooden teeth.

I'm not really patriotic and aren't really bothered in the end but I kind of disagree with the idea of them being the Empire's bitch. Although I honestly ain't that fluent with my American Revolution history knowledge, what I've gathered from the fairly little I've studied of it is that the colonies generally started revolution due to not liking the taxes that were 'forced' upon them.

 

However, weren't these taxes necessary to pay for the fighting the British army went through to protect the colonies from the natives and other colonial powers? Also, weren't these taxes something like 2% of what the average person in the homeland had to pay? The Boston massacre was also hardly a 'massacre' since the Redcoats only killed five men and it's speculated that some Boston trouble-maker shouted 'Fire' anyways.

 

As I said, I'm hardly an American history expert and fully expect someone such as sivispacem to come and whoop my ass in regards to this post, but whatever. If America stayed a British territory, it wouldn't be the fantastic country is it today (well, minus the Bible-belt states that is).

 

So to conclude this long winded and possibly incorrect post;

Happy 4th of July!

Those f*ckwits in Boston were throwing rocks at the soldiers, they wanted a fight and went out there to deliberately provoke us. I guess it worked.

 

Yeah, happy Independence Day and all that. America is a nice enough country.

What counts as an invasion? If I step over the border holding a large sign that says "US invasion force!111!" will you please you come take DC again? Or, if you don't want it either, at least maybe come dig a trench around it filled with lava then launch plague rats into it with a trebuchet or something?

I'll trade you Ottawa for Washington, D.C. and we'll see if that fixes any problems. I doubt it will, but hey, switching capitals can't hurt... right?

@d0mm2k8: The comment being the Empire's bitch was tongue-in-cheek. It was certainly not meant to be taken overly seriously.
