OOOOOOPS!!! I FORGOT!!!!!

it's july 4th! independence day! yay! yay! U-S-A!!! i just made that up in the style of a cheerleader (that's american isn't it?) ::waves pompoms and forms a pyramid::

how can you celebrate when you're country is in economic decline? sorry, hate to dampen things LOL!!!

anyway. i guess that's where the US dxp'ers are today 🙂








bunch of rednecks!

of course, without the spanish and latin americans - it would have been a very different story. it doesn't seem to be acknowledged very much that they contributed in the war of independence even. in fact, without the spanish and latin americans (who appear to be disrespected quite a bit by americans generally), the US would be enslaved by communism by now (as they ought to be muahahahhahah!!!).

america would benefit from adopting the spanish/latino 'manana' mentality. they should have a siesta every day and spend more time thinking about doing something rather than actually doing it! (especially mr bush and his successor). they should start the day with a stiff drink at 7am and have a full three course meal with wine/beer at noon precisely. office hours should be adapted to include siesta hours in the afternoon. no-one is concerned with punctuality. there is no concept of time in fact. they don't have road rage. they don't have stress. they just don't have the arse for it LOL.

so laid back they're horizontal!!

Im in South Korea and its saturday morning here.

Happy 4th everybody!

Oh and I sat next to one of those coveted scorpio men during my flight to LA...he was aiight.

hell to the No on the spanards!

LOL @ Outcast ......right— Seriously this is how most foriegn countries depict USA ....cowboy mentality.

I don't celebrate Independence Day myself. I think patritism gives us a reason to support unjust wars for centuries. America has been doing it all along when it slaughtered red blood for America's independence, enslaved Africans........Lets not forget how we liberated the African American people and than segregated them ....a bit dysfunctional to me. ........ohhhhhhh and most of all ........invade a country because it has "chemical weapons" ......that have yet to be found. I guess the USA meant to say ....we are there to preserve our dependency on oil. Let's not even go into vietnam or the iran contras either. Okay I rest my case. Perhaps I am a bit too cynical for such a holdiay.

Don't get me wrong. I love my country not necessairly our government whether it is Obama or McCain. Black, White, Democratic, or Republican....it is all the same. It does not matter who is in power because who is behind all that power .....are the same people....*Coughs Rockafellers* ......anywhoo ........

It was a lovely light show. 🙂

PD

Red necks are usually republicans LOL

LOL looks like these Americans weren't celebrating either.

the USA would NEVER do anything like incorporate siesta's into the workday. Nothing that keeps its workers healthy. Never, never, never.

"i didnt know 4th of july is only an american thing"



lol @ PP ..... funny shit right there ^^^^^^^^^^

Question: They don't teach American History in Washington?




Rox ... it's called, "Yankees" !!!!!!

England should actually be a part of Independence Day ..

..... of course, I guess you Limey's don't really want to celebrate that you LOST. 😉😉

omgmg PP!!

stop admitting things like that. lol

Since Independance day fell on a Friday, this entire weekend has been one big party. I watched fireworks displays from thursday straight through yesterday, and might even catch some tonight. But one thing I figured out is that they arent much fun when you watch them by yourself. Especially when you see couples all cuddled up on blankies with their necks craned up, arm in arm. You start to imagine them saying things to eachother like "Oooo...that one was the prettiest so far" "Not as pretty as you, honey!" Aww...Im gonna let you stick it in my ass tonight just for saying that...smooch"

LOL Tollbooth,

You're such a New Yorker 😛

"Well, i just figured since it was a holiday, it was a national thing LOL!!!!!!"

OMG Prince P...lol It IS a national thing. It's NOT an international thing.

Why did you think it was called Independence day? Just curious... 🙂

"Be nice to me! Im younger than you guys"

Aww...it's just cute, Princey-pooh. Of course..that IS covered in first grade history and rammed down your throat through the following 11 grades, but we'll forgive you. At least I will.. You were probably in the bathroom doing your hair, or out "sick" those days. 😉

"Sea Siren, nobody ever said to me "4th of july is only for americans" lol, for me to know that, somebody would HAVE to directly say it like that or else i'll have no idea lol."

LMAO! Yeah, other countries don't really give a shit about the day we broke away from England.

"Its not my fault i dont have time to sit around and study like a loser"

Knowledge is power, my love. However, this all reminds me of an Iggy Pop song..."You're Pretty Face is Going to Hell"

HAHA! Just kidding...I don't even believe in hell. 😉

*You're = your

Damnit. I'm sleeepy! 😢

"I'm a physiology major.Does that make me a loser"

It makes me one, too. What good is a Master's, after all? Of course, that's not to say I haven't used my physical appeal to contest a grade or two...lol

LMAO! Keva...that's not a good sign..

You're a psych major? THANK GODDESS YOU ARE HERE!

As long as I'm ahead, it really doesn't matter. 😛

Lemme take this opportunity to damn roxi again.

We must use every weapon in our arsenal. That one is particularly easy.

"Lemme take this opportunity to damn roxi again."

How come?

Leave it to a Virgo to turn a thread into a friggin' quiz...lol

its also the name of one of Mariah Carey's albums "The Emancipation of Mimi"

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!! You're hysterical, kiddo.

"How come?"

For being the smart ass she usually is.

Damn you Roxi.

"SR dear, you must forgive me. I accused you of being another DXP member. I've realized how wrong I am."

Um... excuse me?

"HELLO! why is nobody acknowledging that i got the question right."

:::Gives Prince P a smooch on the forehead and a Twizzler:::

I gave you a Twizzler because they're low in fat and will not damage your figure. SEE! I'm thoughtful that way.

"lol emancipation does mean freedom."

You probably googled the definition, didn't you?

SH, I think his cockiness is that typical Euro-trash snobbery - you know, the one where they look down shamelessly on all Americans .... like that other Euro snob I damned in this topic.

Well, I think they're under the impression that we, the general public, are often consulted regarding foreign policy.

And that our vote actually counts for who is in office. I still think they should hold elections here like American Idol. And do away with the Electoral College.

Dos minutos, senor Shaks.

Just phone it in and vote as many times as you want. Let's make them sing, too! 🙂

BTW, how friggin' scary is John McCain? He looks like a cross between Satan and the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Those shifty beady little eyes....:::shiver::

Ms. Siren, I must redirect you to the politix board before hell breaks out on the Scorpio board... again.

:: sigh ::

I think we need a little hell around here. It's been pretty boring of late.

Okay, that's it. MsP is really ObamaGirl.

"McCain is creepy but all politicians creep me out."

Me too. But then, most of them have previously been lawyers, so there ya go. 🙂

If you don't vote in November, you can skip out on jury duty for another four years.

LMAO! SH, you would NOT really do Nader...would you?

I think she would.... 🙂

Well, I would hope you would get a T-shirt for that and not just a button...lol

Let's hear 'em! 🙂

YES! IRONY! YES! 🙂

ROTF!!!!!

PP: LOL i didnt know 4th of july is only an american thing LOL!!!

that is so cute. you got bashed for that but it really sums up what young people must feel like in the US - like there really isn't anyone else out there in the world. but seriously, you didn't really think they celebrated july 4th in iraq or afghanistan did you— LOL.

you're an okay kid, pp. don't feel bad. you should probably try to catch the news more often though.

ok, good.
