happy 4th of July

What's the big deal about the fourth of July?

It's some huge historical date in the US history, Independance day if I'm not mistaken. Apparently, it's huge enough for the US that some of them believe it's international, hence this thread.

How long until this thread is moved for off-topic?

Independence from what...?

OK, it was a sarcastic comment. Must remember to somehow make that more obvious whenever I post

LOL I know we are English and couldn't give a toss about it, but its nice to wish the Americans a happy 4th of July, although we should of wished the Canadians a happy 1st of July too.

Although when i was there for it, it was a great excuse for a great knees up........it was cool

Yep, I was at Panama City Beach, FL for Independence day last year, fantastic party. And I felt very welcome at it, and a big part of it, which was both lovely and sort of odd...

Mind you, I've had the same experience on Malaysian Independence day and can't imagine it being different on Canada Day, India's independence day or really any others

But then, I'm all for any reason to celebrate something

Lol nobody cares about us canadians... probably cuz nothing interesting ever happens here. guess its better being ignored half the time than to be disliked by half the world :/
