Sure, we Canadians have our birthday celebration on the 1st, and you Americans go and need to steal our thunder! J/k have fun this 4th.
Whooo, America's B-day, time to... pull a 13 hour work day, goddammit. Stupid job, at least I'm making time and half for all that.
Unfortunately, those threats mean nothing nowadays. While America might not be the greatest superpower right now, we're much more a superpower than you Brit blokes who are trying to salvage the remnants of a once-upon-a-time empire that has long since been done and got.
No hate here. I love a woman with a nice British accent. Or a Welsh. Or a Scottish. Or an Irish. Or a Cockney.
No disrespect to my Monarchical brothers and sisters. Just a bit of friendly banter is all. My mum used to slap me around when I'd forget my Irish heritage and she told me that if it weren't for the UK then the US would just be a larger Mexico. Then again, my dad would slap me around and say if it weren't for the Spanish/French then the US would have been conquered by the Cree.....How my mother and father ever married is beyond me.
Yeah I'm working today as well... but! I get paid double and I can see the fireworks on the pier from the pool deck where I work! Alright! $16 and hour to watch fireworks!
