It's bonfire night, there are so many fireworks going off it sounds like Baghdad during an invasion. Hurrah!

Hey, my mom was just telling me about this yesterday.

Pretty interesting "celebration", really.

She showed me some of the pictures she took when she used to live in Europe. Looks pretty fun.

Yeah, same down here. The dipshats in the choir school next door are launching them outside my window, and part of one landed on my roommate's desk earlier.

All in all, it's very surreal and my room smells of sulphur.

Bonfire night kicks ***. I find it very weird, though, that while we celebrate Halloween and Independence Day (although I'm buggered if I know why), you guys don't even know about Guy Fawkes. Crazy.

We don't celebrate Independence day, wtf?

Posted by Ant

Why would you? :(

Posted by Speedfreak

Exactly. WINGS IS CRAZY.

Guy Fawkes night is better than Independence Day becuase:

1>It celebrates the stopping of a terrosit act
2>It's in winter rather than July which means it gets dark earlier which means more time for fireworks
3>We get to burn Guy Fawkes!
4>We are England

we don't know about Guy Fawkes because he isn't a huge deal to American History. Who was Booker T Washington?

Rofl, it seems like everywhere is that gaudy red, white, and blue on July 4th, at least from where I'm standing. I remember we used to have themed school dinners and everything. God.

from where I'm standing, you're lame, so hah

it really sucks, I almost wish I gave a **** enough to make up some really cliche anti-England jokes, but. . . well, there's the whole pre-requisite I mentioned earlier

just for ****s and giggles

Why Independence Day is better than Guy Fawkes night

1) It celebrates a colonial power majorly whooping an Imperial power's ***
2) It's in July, which means girls are typically drunk and half naked
3) We get to shoot firecrackers! Also it's not named after someone named "Guy", I mean, jeez, what are you, French?
4) You are England

Dude, when are girls NOT drunk and half naked? Or usually, half drunk and naked?

Posted by Bj Blaskowitz

good point, but this one is fire+explosions+drunk/half naked girls. It's like. . . getting to watch porn while blowing **** up. WIN^2

Posted by WILLETH FOR MONTHS

When I'm with a half-drunk naked girl, there's no need for fire and explosions.

OH GOD I'M GOOD AT THE SECKS
