Yes indeed!

Happy independance day America. It was on this day a few hundred years ago that you announced to the rest of the world; Don't come within 20ft of us, unless you want a black eye! And you haven't looked back since!

:wink:


Please turn on your 'good humour' emotion chip and understand the above was sincere (the congratulations) and also comical (the announcement to the world) :P

Well, we can't forget America's first allies, for without them, there probably wouldn't have been a United States of America. So, thanks to France (you cheese eating surrender monkeys, you), Spain and the Netherlands. :)

On this, I have no choice but to quote Something Awful.
The English were super evil, like shown in the extremely realistic movie "The Patriot" with Mel Gibson. Gibson plays an old fighter who wants nothing of the war but his son is shot for being a spy, so he turns into a ninja and kills like, 10 British dudes while his infant sons shoot rapid fire muzzle loading rifles. The final battle for America was at Helms Deep where the British breached the wall with an orc bearing explosives. All seemed lost, but then an old friend returned to America to help them in their time of need. Steve Perry mounted a cannonball that sailed over the heads of the British hordes, as he held an American flag under his right arm. He steered towards the British command tent, leaping forward and impaling the King of England with the flag, and then blew up all the rest of the guys in the tent too. Victory was ours, and America was free! Soon after the founding fathers drafted the constitution, ensuring the God-given rights of all men to be free, they enslaved a bunch of black people from Africa to make this country the great economic powerhouse it is today. Hooray for America!

Today is the day where everyone parties like it is New Year's Eve. Everyone is getting drunk on American beer, eating American food, and then waving American colors, and watching good ol' American rocket-mortars shoot American explosives into the air. :twisted:

Actually, the fireworks and launchers were outsourced to China, the flags are made in Taiwan, and the ingredients for the food and beer are from Mexico.

Chefs proved to be too difficult to outsource. :P

How? By waxing poetic about your monarchy? WE HATE MONARCHS!

By sending a horde of popular musicians to convince America's young that Britain is the way to go? You tried that in the 1960's. Didn't work.

Military conquest? What a joke. The US spends more on its military than ALL OF WESTERN EUROPE COMBINED. Plus, we've got more nukes than you, more aircraft carriers (with more planes), a larger army, etc. :lol:

Trying to buy the USA from us? I doubt the crown jewels will be enough....

Attempting to send mass immigrants to launch a coup? Sorry, the Mexicans, Filipinos, Indians, Pakistanis, Central Americans, etc. are all beating you to it. And some of those really don't like the British.

Suprise attack on Washington? Tried in 1814. Turned city into weenie roast, but were beaten back. And the US was a lot weaker back then.

Try a Unified Empire strike? Hmm... Canada would make a nice addition to the US. so would Australia...

Hypocritical alliance of convenience with China or Russia? Nuclear endgame - world ends; Britain and America both lose.

As you see, the British aren't taking the US anytime soon.

The only proper way to enjoy the Fourth of July is drunk and so close to the fireworks that little burning bits of cardboard are falling all around you.

lmfso! Wow, Thanks for that ;) It was a pun actually... you know, with the main site being about the 'Empire' ;) But I knew a patriotic, flag waving yank would pick up on my being English and saying that :P I hate Monarchs too, but wait let mego and put my stereotype hat on...

Blair might kiss your arse, but I doubt we'd want to 'take' the US anytime soon :D You can keep it! I'm very happy with my own little patch of land right here thanks! Hope you enjoyed your day of hypocrisy.
