Its actually Ungrateful Colonists Insurgence Day.
What I don’t get is why you guys drink and let off fireworks like you have healthcare.
I miss Apu Nahasapeemapetilon :(
The fireworks are due to a line in the star spangled banner
Yeah, Im sure people are thinking so much about that line as they pop the top off their 14th bottle of bud and watch their 6 year old fumble a lit mortar shell
People just like being dumbasses and blowing shit up. In my city one of the more common activities is firing live rounds from handguns into the air. People get hit every year by falling bullets. Its just dumb shit plain and simple. Im so glad to live in a place now where the fire danger means no fireworks on the 4th every year. Its legitimately a more enjoyable holiday even if you cant blow shit up
We didn’t screw up, the rich one, but that were never playing the same game. Not only were they playing a different game from the rest of us, but cheating at it as well.
I mean the “in” stand for “not”, like how the “in” in “inconclusive” makes it “not conclusive”. While “un” also mean “not”, it’s hard to argue that “undependent” read better than “independent”.
Sometimes I wonder about if the US had stayed a colony longer. Slavery probably would have ended sooner. Probably have a better government structure.
The US wasn’t a colony. It was 13 colonies that united.
Technically correct, the best kind of correct
