    How was everyone's J4?

    Or what are your plans for the rest of this weekend?

    Mine sucked. I had requested Fri-Mon off because I have a family reunion up in Michigan I wanted to go to. My manager said no because it's going to be busy and I was needed. I understood that, but it's not why I'm mad. I went to check my schedule Thursday(Our schedules are posted bi-weekly and it turns out I was given Fri-Sun off. Like wtf, you cuoldn't just give me all 4 days off? And ontop of that, why do I get Fri-Sat, the busiest days of the week off instead of Monday? Oh... And did you just lie to me? Yeah F U dude.

    Well.. I'm back on the job hunt... Till I find one I shall remain with this one... Oh I work at a bakery.

    Mine was pretty uneventful. Had the day off, so I pretty much played games. Had no plans and don't give a flying fuck about fireworks. However, it was an extremely GOOD gaming day, so while uneventful, it was pretty fun xD.

    Mine was great. Went to a party, had a couple drinks, hung out with some friends, watched the fireworks. I hope everyone else had a good time as well!

    Doesn't apply to me. I just had a @home type holiday. Good gaming/anime day though. Haven't had one for a long time.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    I went to the gym only to find it closed, cursed America, then shed a single tear in remorse. People fought to close that gym. They deserve a little more respect.

    Then I worked all night and went to bed.

    Arguably less eventful than the Independence Day in the film of the same name.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Doesn't apply, but had a light working day, and a very high end japanese restaurant established in 1956 in paris (extraterrestrial at the time, you bet).
    My wife and I found it very nice, then we had the afternoon off and had fun doing various things.
    I did thought it was fourth of July and mentionned it to my wife, so my heart was with fellow americans too.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    So as a Frenchman, do you think it was wrong for the US to invade Iraq?

    July 4 was the same as any other day here. Didn't really feel the festive spirit, but that was probably because we've been having delays in supply shipments, so no sparkling cider at the cafeteria this holiday, and the menu wasn't as nice as on other holidays, especially patriotic ones.


    “For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

    the question is a tad off-topic and "invade" bears an oriented meaning.
    I'll just answer quickly with a no, and would probably develop if a specific thread was created in the appropriate section and the discussion remains civil.

    Did you know that after France denounced the US invading Iraq, that some Americans wanted to boycott French's mustard because of its name, even though it's an American company?

    Hehe, I shall do the same. I made a 'Happy Birthday Canada' cake for my camp, and drew a little maple leaf on each piece in red icing. It was 50 pieces in total (which made me glad it was a small week for the camp, since we have 100 campers this week). Then I watched a movie after I got off work. I forget which one, which means it probably wasn't a very good movie (the only girl at camp with actual DVD's only owns chick flicks, so there's not a lot of selection).

    Saman - which Disney movies? And I'm totally jealous of getting to play guitar hero. I won't get to play again until September T_T

    Finally got to watch the Incredible Hulk (Hulk SMASH).
    Had Korean BBQ and Kirin Ichiban. =D Watched fireworks at my friend's place and saw a pokeball in the sky. I have no idea why but that totally made my night...XD

    (At first, I thought the title read "J5"like...ABC...easy as 123)

    I tried my best...

    mmm cake. lucky campers. a maple leaf on each of the fifty pieces, though? that must've taken you forever!

    i watched dumbo in the afternoon, and then cinderella at night. they don't make them like they used to anymore. although wall-e was really good. boo for not playing guitar hero either. only two more months left!

    Strange, since I fully expected to be accused of baiting and trolling when I posted that.
