Yes you rebelled (if you did it now-a-days you'd be branded as terrorists!)

And yes Fox News Twitter got hacked and they tweeted that BHO got shot!

'Murrica!

I think the finest part of my day was logging onto facebook and seeing about a dozen of my australian friends all wishing the US a happy independence day and telling GB to stuff it.

I <3 Aussies.

To all my British friends wondering why they can't celebrate, etc. Just remember, you may have lost, but we don't hold any grudges. If you would like to celebrate with us, you can, you just have to push for annexation of your nation by the US of A. Don't worry, I'm sure we can work it out so that the Queen (maybe King in a few years?) can hold on to power of the new state.

Are you kidding, with how america was going nuts over the royal wedding GB could probably annex us and only a few would throw a fit.

Happy 5th of july!

Happy illegal revolution/terrorism/liberation/independance day

No, I believe my Southampton compatriot is referring to some news story today about an Obama assassination hoax. I can't find it now, but I came across it earlier this morning myself.

If the troll accusation is in reference is to the second line, then come on, we're British

I just did it because it seemed funny.

Besides, I'm from russia.

Twas a good day, spent half my time awake playing 40k then went to a bbq and watched my neighbors blow stuff up. It's always amusing how visibility gets reduced to 20 feet after everyone's done because of all the smoke from the boomies.

I get confused when I hear other nations celebrate our independence day, but hey any reason to have a pint and blow shiz up is a good reason I suppose.

I will happily drink ten pints to celebrate 4th of July, were friends now. And the now is all that matters.

Well.. and pints obviously.

I like your style

Most British prefer to drink to the wars the UK lost rather than the wars the UK won as it saves a lot of wear on the liver.

Foul day. I shall not speak of it.

KK is correct here...
We would run out of booze quickly if we drank to our victories...

Well the fact that there were several TV spots over here showing massive celebrations all over the US, then yeah, a lot of people were going nuts, all over the world. No matter how much you want to ignore that, a stupid amount of people celebrated the Royal Wedding, all over the planet.
