So this post is not going to be one of my hard-hitting journalism pieces (you know the ones that are basically the only reason people go on Thought Catalog)—no, today I’m going to do something different—I’m gonna post a Reddit thread, cuz I’m cool and original like that!!
So, I found these comments on a thread asking British people what they thought about Independence Day, cuz, you know, they lost and were sent home by the Founding Mothers. OK, here we go:

Wow. Just. Wow. I didn’t understand much, but I think they’re angry at us. All the more reason to call it “Kick a Brit Day.” Anyway, before I leave you to enjoy the 4th of July, I have a patriotic quote for you to take in:
Freedom isn’t free
No, there’s a hefty fuckin’ fee
And if you don’t throw in your buck ‘o five
Who will?
Oo, buck ‘o five
Freedom costs a buck ‘o five
—Abraham Lincoln
OK, that’s all. Kbye.
