To all Americans, have a Happy Fourth of July, and go celebrate your legally protected right to own and use firearms. Or if you don't like guns, go shoot of some fireworks. And if you don't like like fireworks, go sit at home and cry or move to Europe.


Limeys, STAY OUT. America FTW

We have guns and gay marriage in certain states. And baseball.

"...of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more." -John Adams

"um.......no.......who are we independent from?"
"not foreign oil, that's for darn sure"
"um.......okay, but do you remember what happened on July 4, 1776?"
"we sent a whiny letter to the British and started a war that lasted for many years and killed many people only so we could get out from under their taxes and start making up our own?"
"um......I don't think that's exactly right"
"yeah, mom, it is."

^conversation with 6 year old last night.

G-d bless the Smunklings.

Anyway, I will NOT be going to any firework shows due to PTSD from being in Northern Israel when the Lebanon war started in 2006. Bottle rockets sound like Katyushas.

Atleast you have a valid excuse.

Can you believe some states dont support fireworks...So unpatriotic...

Happy rich white men didnt want to pay their taxes day!

Happy rich white men didnt want to fund your wars and house your soldiers and buy into your monopolies

Fixed...

Bastards. (my states one of them) Gas is to expensive to run across the border and grab some from South Dakota.

Happy 4th!

Sadly enough though, it'd been 3 years since my cat Sara died. :(

She was my first real pet. :(

Sucks...My Dad bought a shitload from a wharehouse in AL on his way home...Im gonna go visit, and if theres any left, shoot some off, lol...

The cops have put out a sign near my house warning that fireworks are illegal. Killjoys. What's a Fourth of July in Texas without a few accidental brushfires? :(

Sucks...My Dad bought a shitload from a wharehouse in AL on his way home...Im gonna go visit, and if theres any left, shoot some off, lol...

I'll probably have a bugass bonfire to make up for it. After riding my bike into the lake from a dock. Maybe I'll find my glasses I lost doing that yesterday...

happy independance America. At least we made you what you are now

Quick, my fellow Britons, while those crazy yanks are celebrating and unprepared we can finally reclaim this colony for Her Majesty. God save the Queen! Huzzah! Toodle pip.

I used to live in Minnesota, about 30-40 miles from Saint Cloud. It wasn't fun to be limited to the official fireworks shows.

I hope there's a few fireworks tents here with clearance sales tomorrow. . . . .

I'll probably have a bugass bonfire to make up for it. . . .

How many bug asses does it take to build a bonfire??? o.O

happy independance America. At least we made you what you are now

Quick, my fellow Britons, while those crazy yanks are partying and unprepared we can take back this silly colony. God save the Queen! Huzzah! Toodle pip.

I wouldnt do that...Itll be worse than last time...

This time we'll be drunk with more bombs and more effecient weapons...

Besides, dont you have to wax our Airforce on ye old Island, lol...

Aha. But your leaders will be drunk. This, combined with the famed inaccuracy of US weapons will mean you will be unable to hit these fine islands. Also, while you simple folk need sleep, we can stay awake for days due to the refreshing qualities of tea. And thus victory for the Empire is assured.

King Arthur was a Celt, he'd probably join us in shooting you Limeys, lol...

Hell, he'd probably partake in the Beer we took from your Breweries, lol..

I doubt that a dusty book of fables can do anything against American tanks.

Didn't you hear the news? We have united to defeat the common U.S. enemy, and with our combined strength are now prepared to take Britain to its natural role of total world domination.

Sucks...My Dad bought a shitload from a wharehouse in AL on his way home...Im gonna go visit, and if theres any left, shoot some off, lol...

The best little wharehouse in Texas, sorry Alabama?

We dont need to sleep, we can just go to the Many Starbucks Coffee houses to match your quantities of Tea...

Besides, we dont need leaders, we've been going leaderless for years, lol...

The best little wharehouse in Texas, sorry Alabama?

yep, surprisingly enough, there's a really huge Fireworks Storehouse in Alabama...Seemed a little random to me too, but its there, lol...

Bibles can stop bullets. Imagine what books of truth can do! Just imagine!

No. They can't. A .22(which is a pussy round) can easily shoot through a bible, let alone any real round like .223(much larger powder charge), or .308 Win.

I say we get John Bull vs Uncle Sam in an MMA fight to really settle this, lol...

Bull's got the power, but Sam's got the reach...who wins!? lol

It was one time. Just to see if you could.

Such misplaced arrogance and reliance on "fact" are just more examples of faults in your national character that mean your puny forces are most surely doomed to be defeated in time for our brave men to be home for supper.

I used this day as an excuse to eat junk food and bunk off work all day

I'm more American than any of you!:cool:

Here in Arizona they're banned because they start forest fires or something lame like that :(
damn forests

We may rely on untrue facts, we may be arrgogant, but it is those veliefs that guide us. Brave men home for supper? I doubt that. America is impossible to invade simple because of the numbers of firearms used and owned by the public. Even if only 1 in 4 fight back with them, thats still more people than you have in your entire country.

But we have our mighty, charismatic leader Gordon Brown to inspire us! The Gordon factor is like rolling two sixes. Critical hit and maximum yank-damage!

Up near flagstaff, ya. But down here near Tucson, sort of. They're like pretty thin pine forests. And they always manage to get caught on fire.

Whats going on here, chaps? Hang on. I'm picking up readings that suggest an American is trying to use basic humour. We must retreat and hide in sealed soundproof caves until readings of "unfunny" return to a safe level :p

Maybe in those caves you'll be able to hear how annoying your accents are, or realise how bad your teeth are.

I love fireworks...in the hands of professionals and people who know what they're doing. Fuckwad kids of further fuckwadded parents who think it's funny to launch them at people or animals and blow stuff up that doesn't belong to them, well, liking that takes a moron. Thankfully for the fireworks industry (aka China), we have no shortage of those, and they intensify with faux patriotic fervor enhanced with booze. God bless America.

Limeys, STAY OUT. America FTW

See, now this is where I have to use judgment to determine whether or not you're just messing around. Thankfully, I also have your post history to help me determine that the answer is no, not really.

And that's just sad.

You have forests in Arizona?

More pinons and Ponderosa pines that you can light a match at. But please don't. Yeah, northern Arizona is rife with trees.

Maybe in those caves you'll be able to hear how annoying your accents are, or realise how bad your teeth are.

None of that. We are Britons. On this sombre occasion we will not converse or self-analyse. Stiff-upper lip and all that, chaps. We will wait it out while the rest of world civilization falls as a result of the mass depression caused by the replacement of quality British sitcoms with awful, cringily acted American replacements. Compared the British and American versions of "The Office"? That is what is going to happen to all quality programming. MWAHAHAHA! You shall all cede to Britain the right to rule over your puny lands in return for our wit once again gracing your screens.

Then you'd better change your pants.

*pitiful attempt at humour snipped*

Then you'd better change your pants.

Oh, so you are serious. Firstly, even at its peak, the USSR did not take Western Europe, so it would hardly be described as 're-taking' if they got to Britain, my dear. Secondly the idea that Russia could invade Europe on its own without getting utterly destroyed is ridiculous. If we plot a graph regarding your argument with credibility on the y axis, and time on the x axis, a distinct and rapid downward trend is evident

Smart Kid ;).

Plans for tonight:

1.Go to church for food and fireworks.
2.Go home and put off some cheap fireworks.
3. Stay up till 3 or 4 in the morning play games and reading the declaration of independence.

As you don't specify which area of Europe I guess you must mean the whole thing. A war on that scale would hugely negatively affect both sides by nuclear damage and casualties in battle. However authoritarian a leadership Russia may have, good luck trying to gain support for that level of sacrifice from any country in the modern world. And even if Russia did win a war, the level of destruction would destroy everyone's economies. So its quite clearly not in the national interest if you think about it. If you want to take this discussion to another thread and make yourself look silly, then go ahead.

"Entire American forces defeated single-handedly by the resurrected King Arthur"

Please. Just try invading and in a week you'll be just another minority group with your own dialect and culture.

But we have our mighty, charismatic leader Gordon Brown to inspire us! The Gordon factor is like rolling two sixes. Critical hit and maximum yank-damage!

America uses d8s.

Also, Chuck Norris is on OUR side.

You honestly think Churck Norris could beat Gordon Brown?:rolleyes:

Firstly, from a Brit, happy July 4th.
Lord knows how things might have turned out differently if we'd kept you with us- better, maybe? Anyway, whats happened has happened, well done to you.

For all those non-Brits using the term "limeys"- why? Its offensive or derogatory in any way. I see it rather as a compliment to our own ingenuity!

Enjoy your greatness Americans, it's not going to last much longer... Mwahahahahahahahaha!
Bloody hell I'm cynical!

You Should Come Over To Montgomery County Outside Houston, Were not in the no firework zone :sniper:

I don't think it. I KNOW it.

Yay America!
You know, all things considered...and I know I'm gonna get blasted for this...the U.S. has actually done some really great stuff for the world.

And please. Who can't Chuck Norris beat? :D

And please. Who can't Chuck Norris beat? :D

Bruce. Fucking. Lee.

He wouldn't have to beat him. His fists aren't worth that. He'd just stare at Brown until he spontaneously combusted.:)

Gordon Brown is so persuasive, he'll convince Chuck to roundhouse kick himself in the face.

and your natural lime flavor!

Do we really taste like that? Heh heh!
So do Americans taste like McDonalds then? Fair bet what people from Kentucky taste like!

Fair bet what people from Kentucky taste like!

people like Kentucky taste like fried chicken. Duh.

By the way, love your name.

....touche, sir or madam. Touche.

Allow me to rephrase.

Who alive can beat Chuck Norris?

This thread was fun...Wth whyd you have to go all serious on me...Im gonna go to work now...

And when i get back, im gonna get drunk and shoot fireworks...

You guys change your TUNE!!!

....touche, sir or madam. Touche.

Allow me to rephrase.

Who alive can beat Chuck Norris?

Stephen Hawking. Its like in that godawful film "Unbreakable". He is Chuck's opposite, so he must be his nemesis, and his only equal opponent.

Who alive can beat Chuck Norris?

Who could beat up a 68 year old actor - pretty much most people.

I reckon the flu or common cold will end him. God works in ironic ways, plus when Bush, the Pope and I had our last videoconference with God, He said He's really fed up of chuck norris jokes and wants to find a way to kill the phenomenon once and for all.

Hey! I liked that movie!

Somebody has to :p

My reaction was to check the DVD several times just to be sure I hadn't watched a joke alternate ending by mistake. Actually, the last few minutes were probably the best part, because I knew it was nearly over.

Hmm...sounds like irritating postmodern sillyness. A film about making a film? Done too many times now. They just shouldn't have told him and dropped him into an actual war, then filmed him being shot. I WOULD pay to see that:p

I didn't know Bruce and Lee were like that!:eek: :p

All the time. I mean seriously, try living in the apartment next door. I'd be fine with it if they were quiet. But they're not.

It's always like, "Oh Bruce, Oh Bruce! Oh! Oh! Oh!"

"Lee! Lee! Lee!"

"Pull out!"

"Oh my God, there's blood everywhere!"

"I told you not to set it at high!"

"Call 9-1-1!"

"Goddammit! That was my last one too!"

I've always thought that the addition of the Turkey baster was just inviting tragedy.

Bruce Lee isn't dead, but he must let the world think he is until he can control the beast within.

Now, as a Scot, I have an inherent natural hatred of the English. Therefore, we Scots tend to have an affinity towards England's enemies, including the Irish, French etc.

However, I cannot allow my cultural language to be mocked in such a manner! You have made an enemy of Scotland, American! And I for one will bury the hatchet and unite with the rest of the British posters to futilely try to dampen your 4th of July spirits!

I've got a better idea. How about you stop telling people to leave my country if they don't like guns or fireworks? My country can have them just as much as it can have nutty people who go crazy over firearms and fireworks.

Now, I happen to quite enjoy fireworks, and I enjoyed a nice display of such, but that's beside the point.

Can you believe some states dont support fireworks...So unpatriotic...

I like professional fireworks shows.

However, since my state is normally dry as... well... I can't think of any metaphors that aren't disgusting, but it's really dry, I think it's a good idea not to let any idiot who wants to shoot off fireworks, even if people do get around the law.

Especially in a drought year like this, when the state's burning up as it is.

I've got a better idea. How about you stop telling people to leave my country if they don't like guns or fireworks? My country can have them just as much as it can have nutty people who go crazy over firearms and fireworks.

Now, I happen to quite enjoy fireworks, and I enjoyed a nice display of such, but that's beside the point.

...i think it was a joke friend...

Yeah, hope that ends soon...

But, as most people know, it stays perpetually wet around here, lol...

the fourth jeweled lie is over for another year. thank the goddess and all the little kitsuni. forth jeweled lie, wup ee do i ee.

pretty lights in the sky. boom bang crash. silly kids. hope they had fun.

still think mid summer should be about ice cream. and have the big boom bang lights in the sky in the middle of the winter or sometime when everything is wet down well and less likely to burn.

as for nationalism and idiology, that can crawl up its own backside and the horse it rode in on, and take its little green pieces of paper with it.

Since, as I mentioned before, fireworks set off my PTSD, I celebrated Fourth of July by eating the following dinner:

Hot dog
Fries
Watermelon
Apple pie

G-d bless America!

Wee!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!

Ah, Southern Independence Day celebrations. Guns, booze, bands, more guns, booze, guns, fire, booze, guns, guns, guns, booze, guns, booze. Explosions. And guns. and booze. Did I mention guns and booze?

I think you'll find that was 11 March. ;)

Fortunately, no one celebrates that anymore.

...i think it was a joke friend...

Maybe, but I've met far too many people who say things like that seriously to have let that go without a bit of a rant.

Now, as a Scot, I have an inherent natural hatred of the English. Therefore, we Scots tend to have an affinity towards England's enemies, including the Irish, French etc.

However, I cannot allow my cultural language to be mocked in such a manner! You have made an enemy of Scotland, American! And I for one will bury the hatchet and unite with the rest of the British posters to futilely try to dampen your 4th of July spirits!

*Flies the Saltire, marching on Washington DC*

I was actually using my little "how to speak like a Dwarf" guide. Of course you're free to take out your wrath on the person who started the Dwarven accent = Scottish accent.

Not that I'm afraid, mind you. Last call we drew with Britain. How did Scotland do against them?

But then they're not true Americans, and should leave.

The patriot doth protest too much, methinks.

Commie.

I'm not a commie. I oppress those that are poorer than me on a regular basis.

you still need to explain how many bug asses it takes to build a bugass bonfire (see page 2)

Not as many as you'd think...

That was a typo. I'm blind as a bat and lost my glasses when I rode my bike off the end of a dock, while wearing them.

Which lake? There are more than the advertised 10,000 in that state.

Hope you'll be able to get a new pair soon, mate. And don't do that next time. Believe you me, riding a bike off a dock may SEEM like a good idea, but it's not once you're in the water. :D

Haha, the fireworks show in my town lasted for three minutes, and in that time burned down a park and a nearby house.

Good certified pyrotechs we have.

And if you don't like like fireworks, go sit at home and cry or move to Europe[/IMG]

That wouldn't really do them any good as when I lived in Europe they seemed to like fireworks just as much as Americans. In fact, I could buy better fireworks in France and Germany than I could in Michigan.

I'm blind as a bat and lost my glasses when I rode my bike off the end of a dock, while wearing them.Curious that you would ride off a perfectly good dock like that when could still see the end of it coming up ...

When you say, "good", you kinda mean "incompetent", no?

In fact, I could buy better fireworks in France and Germany than I could in Michigan.But where else could you simply build a thermo-nuclear device to use as nice firework, and also to use it threaten the world into giving three billion dollars.

I rode off on purpose.

Not rose-tinted, then?

You're not fooling anyone, comrade.

Not rose-tinted, then?

No.

I thought it was flag day-. oops.
