Firecrackers are so much better than fireworks. I love the loud noise more than the colors.
Fuck yeah, blew some shit up. I also got some firecrackers and bottle rockets from the Indian reservation, since those are the only types of fireworks that Washington doesn't allow. Luckily we didn't get pulled over on our way home :v: Happy fourth, everybody!
[QUOTE=gB.;23112933]difference is our bloody savage conflicts over land took place a long long time ago whereas yours took place in the 17th and 18th century when we were supposed to be civilised[/QUOTE] You're stupid. All there is to it. European states and empires established themselves centuries before America even became an idea, are you really that stupid into comparing a nation that has only existed for 234 years as compared to another European nation/empire that has existed for over 900 years? Euro countries weren't really 'civilised' during that time either. Anyways, Korean BBQ is best BBQ for the 4th.
WELL I managed to almost burn my shirt off and get 2nd degree burns
happy 234th you terrible country hopefully I'm back in Canada before the next 7/4/11

It's not "obsessed", it's called being patriotic. Every county is patriotic to their own nation to some degree, retard. All the England vs. USA fights are because each arguer things that their country is better. 2. People fought the Revolutionary War because Britain was a shit leader and imposed unfair laws and taxes. People fought the Civil War because the South was turning into a British-type situation. People fought World War I because our freedom and our safety was threatened. People fought World War II because not only were our harbors bombed, but we had evidence of nazi's plans to infiltrate US soil. 3. You're a fucking idiot why are you in this thread get out. I really needed to get that third one out of my system, please don't ban me. EDIT: [b]And exactly what country are you from, Mr. High and Mighty? I'm sure you're just angry because we take pride in our own country contrary to what everyone says. We couldn't give a shit if you say we're fat and rich because we know that it's not true. We give the finger to anyone that talks so much shit about us that it rivals the toilets at Woodstock and THAT'S WHY EVERYONE HATES US.[/b] [b][highlight]GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.[/b][/highlight]

How come you americans sometimes call it the fourth of july?
[QUOTE=jaybuz;23148942]How come you americans sometimes call it the fourth of july?[/QUOTE] Mainly because that's the day it's on. It's kinda like calling someone by their first name.
[QUOTE=Second-gear-of-mgear;23149064]Mainly because that's the day it's on. It's kinda like calling someone by their first name.[/QUOTE] No, I mean americans say the month first then the day.
I really need to visit america, with all your 7/11s and whatnot.
[QUOTE=jaybuz;23149122]No, I mean americans say the month first then the day.[/QUOTE] July 4th, 4th of July, it's all the same. I suppose it's just which ever word comes to your mind first.
[QUOTE=jaybuz;23149122]No, I mean americans say the month first then the day.[/QUOTE] July 4th sounds like just a regular old day. It's just the date. 4th of July gives it some significance.
note taken: dont buy those shitty one use shells from TNT, 2 out of 5 of them barely launch out and then blow up 2 feet from the ground
[QUOTE=Regulas021;23104829]lol, edgy teenager being cool[/QUOTE] Wait, wait, wait so the Indian genocide didn't happen? [editline]10:49PM[/editline] [QUOTE=alphaspida;23107231] The people who died for me.[/QUOTE] they died for no real reason, that's not something to celebrate
We were celebrating the fact that America decided to become their own country, if you don't want to celebrate it THEN WHY ARE YOU IN THIS THREAD? And besides, most of the people celebrate it because it's one of the two days of the year when you are allowed to set off fireworks. And to anyone who says anything about mass genocides, almost any other country has committed one. If you deny it then you obviously are extremely biased against the United States. I myself and from the USA, and I still believe that what we did to the natives was abhorrent, but there is nothing we can do about it besides mourn. Some people think that the United States is horrible, and I can see that. But think what could have happened if the United States never declared independence. That would mean that there was no American Revolutionary War, no American Civil War, and maybe even no World War I. If there were no World War I, then there would have been no World War II, no Korean War, no Vietnam War, and none of the wars going on right now. I could go as far to say there may not have been a French Revolution, for that was inspired by USA's successful attempt at freedom. Sounds like a good place, doesn't it? Well, we would probably have developed completely differently since most of the technology we have today was developed because of wars. Along with no wars, there would have been no Industrial Revolution, or at least as we know it. It could have taken us longer to begin working with steam engines. That means that it would have taken us longer to work with electricity. Going down this path, we may not have radar, radio, or even telegraph. Of course, taking all of this into account, there is no doubt that there would have been more wars. Eventually, both this hypothetical universe and ours would have technology that resembles each other. In my opinion, though, it would have taken longer for us to get to where we are now BECAUSE there was no greedy, warmongering United States to push technology forwards for the ever-hungry war machine. /rant [editline]01:20AM[/editline] I just get so pissed when people rant about how horrible the USA and how they think that it should never have been conceived when they don't even seem to think about how the world would be different if it never was.
