Yes yes, it's tomorrow. But I'm eager to celebrate! So how knowledgable are Americans in regards to history and what July 4th means?
Take it away, Jay Leno:
Notice how grandpa at the end is the only one who knows anything. It would be hilarious if it weren't so depressingly sad.

God, whenever I watched those, I had a really tough time believing people were that ignorant. I almost feel like they're paid to not answer correctly.

To be honest, I'm not all that proud of being an American.
I'll be spending my 4th working 6pm - 2am.

I would dare say foreigners know more about July 4 than most Yanks do, though that's quite common for almost everything other than maybe NASCAR, Baseball and over the top Christianity.

Just because half the people in this country are idiots doesn't mean you shouldn't be proud of having the privilege to live in a free country. A lot of people take freedom for granted just because they feel embarrassed by their neighbors. Would you rather live somewhere where the government tells you when you can and cannot take a shit? Also, I'm sure a lot of other countries have their fair share of idiots.

HELL YEAH USA USA USA MURICAAA WOOHOO!!!
Yeah!
Just because I can't do anything about the bank holding a check I deposited for five days while showing the balance to include it without actually applying it to the money I have in the account in order to then charge me for over-drafting the account by more than the check was worth doesn't mean I can't enjoy the freedom to express my impotent rage.
