Cool countries don't have independence days, because no one ever conquered them
Or....they are still....being conquered....I suppose.
Wait a minute...

We'll get it back eventually. Not the whole country. Just the 13 colonies. We don't want Florida and all that other shit.

I'll give America credit in that they have a clear, definitive day when they declared independence and formed a country. Many Canadians still seem to think Canada separated from Britain on our birthday.

Today we celebrate the independence of this wonderful country...by lighting lots of shit on fire. I always play these songs on July 4. I went down to my town's annual regatta and what song did I hear over the loudspeakers? "Born in the USA." *sigh* I expected better of my city! I'm planning to spend the rest of the day watching The Great American Bash on WWE Network.

This will always be remembered as the day Randy Quaid gave his life to protect a classified US Air Force proving ground

All made possible by Mel Gibson. That'll teach you to kill Heath Ledger, you red coated assholes.

Well in fairness, those cases were basically extended family disputes. The Norman had a fair claim. The Scot was chosen because quite frankly, there was no one else suited for the job, the Dutch guy was invited, and the English were Germans to begin with.

Congratulations on 'Not even England is arrogant enough to fight a war on 2 fronts Day. We'd rather save Europe from France, thanks'.

We lost America.
We kept Canada.
I'm OK with that

Yeah I have no problem with England, but I do find it funny how after years of attempting to invade/press claims on Scotland, it was the Stuarts who got the jump on controlling and unifying the two kingdoms. History has a really weird way of working out sometimes.

I think I'm going to follow 1776 with episodes of The Twilight Zone, picking it up from where I left off in the middle of the fifth season when I got the DVDs 3 years ago.
