Jul. 4th, 2005 09:35 pmWell, today is Annual Watch USAdians Make Asses of Themselves Day. For those of you new here, 'USAdians' refers specifically to those residents of this nation who suspend reason and judgement in the interest of jingoistic displays masquerading as patriotism. You all know the sort- the people who chant "U-S-A" over and over at international sporting events and the like. Nothing wrong with celebrating a nation's independence, but there's a lot the people of this country by and large could learn from our northern neighbours, who manage to pull off Canada Day with a modicum of taste.
Anyway, the folks across the street are making jackasses out of themselves. Alcohol and incendiary devices shouldn't mix, and i'm finding myself torn between mercy and hoping that one of the men manages to take himself out with the illegal devices they're setting off.
Sinuses are killing me again, so i've spent much of the day popping decongestants and trying to sleep, mainly unsuccessfully. We all made a brief appearance at I.'s party and hung out with some nice people, but all in all, i'm pretty much in both the 'bleh' and miserable places.
