Kleen™ 45 Posted June 30, 2017 You yanks have always had the odd habit of wrapping literally EVERYTHING from fannys to coffins in the colours of your flag. A few swiss watchmakers just decided to play along...;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abe Fromen 1,620 Posted June 30, 2017 Funny, I thought this weekend was Canada Day weekend. Canada... the country that waltzed into your capital and burned down the white house. Sorry, eh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FL13 511 Posted June 30, 2017 If we needed to war for independence today, the USA would never have started. We'd have been lulled into believing that G.Washington was a psychotic "Right wing conspiricist" and that poor ol' King George III, was the best ever! I wish we were so anxious to take up arms for minor slights... Imagine fighting the entire British empire over 1% tax on our tea... Maybe we were Psychotic... FUCK it! USA USA USA!

SuperbMonster 4 Posted June 30, 2017 Worth Dying For - The Power and Politics of Flags by Tim Marshall is a very interesting read in these turbulent times. Interestingly it describes the correct process of disposing of an American flag that is no longer fit for purpose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
porschespeedster 19 Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) American born, but I wish the Brits would have stuck around there longer. We would at minimum have better health insurance and probably a much safer country. Big up MLK, FDR, Ike, Kennedy, Carter, and Obama though. Also you gotta remember a big chunk of world culture in the present day comes from American inventions, which is pretty interesting. (Who invented blue jeans, smartphones, laptops, Chuck Taylors, jazz, blues, soul, R&B, rock and roll, house, techno etc etc etc) U S A U S A :) Edited June 30, 2017 by porschespeedster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tonyh7 236 Posted July 1, 2017 Initially when I saw this post I thought it must be a German and a further reference to embarrassing penalty shoot outs! Anyway it wasn't, it was NC Rich and may I say: - yes you did - we deserved it - nice watch - happy holiday - nothing lasts forever, not even dolt 45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCRich 13,746 Posted July 1, 2017 This is also keep your pets indoors weekend since yahoos blow up fireworks all day long. Stay off the road since drunks are all over it. Fuel is $1.98 per gallon so everyone is on the road. No question that other yahoos will be shooting their firearms in the air. I'm at the beach so all these people who boat one time a year will be putting their boat in the water and drinking copious amounts of alcohol. Its a good day just to sit at the ramp and watch the stupidity. I went to the grocery store yesterday and the lines were 20 people deep. All in all just another holiday weekend here in paradise. But on the bright side it looked like this yesterday afternoon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
