Happy Fourth of July

July 4th, 2008 · 17 Comments

We here at Sarcastic Gamer are a motley bunch. We’ve got writers from Scotland, England and Canada, mods and cartoonists from England, Poland and Australia, but the majority of us are from the good ‘ole U.S. of A. That said, the American guys from here at SG would just like to thank England. We want to thank the English for oppressing us just enough to make us want to thow some Tea into the ocean and form our own country.

In case you’re wondering, we’re doing pretty good over here since starting our own thing here across the pond. No real problems. Sure, we get homesick once and a while, but when we really start jonesing for a return to England, we just think about the crappy food and return to our senses…

So here’s to you England, Happy Fourth of July, from Sarcastic Gamer!

      @Eagle: I agree…for the most part.

      Oi! We Scots pride ourselves on our greasy food..
      and why do people always assume England and the United Kingdom are the same thing?

      Scotland’s part of the UK too!

      Thanks to Britain for oppressing you enough to form your own country, declare war back on Britain and destroy Upper Canada’s Parliament building, subsequently having your White House torced by Canadians.

      Happy Independence Day guys!

      I had a finnish exchange student who refused to have mayonnaise on her sandwiches. THIS IS AMERICA, YOU WILL EAT AMERICAN FOOD! LOL. Mayo is awesome.

      In a way most americans are infact european as there were only native americans in american before it was discovered and colonised by the europeans who brought wealth and prosperity to america so clearly didn’t oppress america. Also if british food is that bad why are american children the most obese in the world? Must be because of all those healthy burgers!

      @R.A.F.: Well, I should have said that the English are apparently the easiest to offend with obviously stupid jokes…

      Oh and BTW, Most americans AREN’T European… sorry to say.

      And our kids are obese because they eat too much of our AWESOME American Food!

      Happy 4th, and learn to take a joke.

      wow lono , you just cant catch a break can you. i cant count how many times you tried to make an innocent little joke only to end up having it blow up in your face.

      Im Irish/english and didnt find this offensive, just funny. its an obvious joke to get people in the 4th of july mood, not a crack at the uk.

      Lono, i think in the future you better stick to p.c jokes, about fluffy bunnies who enjoy and respect all other members of the other animals in the sugar dandy forest. oh wait that sucks, better stick to the usual stuff then.

      You know the worst thing about this whole 4th July thing? It’s NOT that your treacherous ancestors (”Americans”) betrayed mine (Limeys). It’s that my ancestors weren’t involved with the treachery!!!
      That said, english food is awesome and greasy :D

      Lol happy 4th July guys!

      Happy 4th of July Americans! You can have another 100 years of independence if you agree to take McDonalds back.

      And the weather here is way worse than the food.
