I hope everyone is having a great July 4th! Hopefully your day is full of excellent barbecue action and lovely fireworks. As for me, I’ll be hanging out by the pool for a bit. When the sun goes down, I’ll get back to my weekend playlist. If you have time, share your 4th of July plans in the comments section.

N8R says:

@ Thundercracker

The best ones here are bought in Mexico… which just about all of my neighbors have already.

thundercracker says:

My funniest Independence Day anecdote:

My entire street is setting off fireworks (both legal and illegal) in the street. It's a fairly densely populated street with at least 90 to 100 homes on it and maybe 10 people have no fireworks going on. The people at the top of my street have a seemingly endless supply of illegal mexican fireworks. It's quite awesome.

Anyway, amongst all this, some douche in an SUV comes driving down the street beeping at all the fireworks that are going off as he's driving by. As if someone is actually going to go into to the street and move a lit firework so he can get by easier.

This is just a small example of the self-centered assholes that clutter Southern California. "Screw the community, I gotta get to the bar."

@N8R

I don't consider myself self centered, but i did run over some ppl's fireworks with my truck this evening. They saw me coming and put them in the road anyway. I accepted their challenge.

did i mention i was going the wrong way on a 1 way street? lol.

N8R says:

@ Smartguy

Would someone who's self-centered know they were self-centered? I don't think I've ever heard someone admit that no matter how self centered they are.

These were fireworks lit before they got there, and it was literally the whole street and not just one person. If he would have just ran them over that would be one thing… but no, this d-bag was trying to get people to move lit fireworks with their hands by beeping at them while the firework was going off and his smug ass was pointing at it while looking at the people in the yard.

bsukenyan says:

I had to work this morning so I was up just before 3:30am. Could barely get to sleep until almost 2am because of all the fireworks just outside my apartment. It just made me want to go get some really loud fireworks and set them off right about now while all of them are asleep. But I did expect to have that problem last night and I didn't feel like spending money on fireworks for that.

Well, time for some more sleep now. If I can

smartguy says:

@N8R

The self centered thing was a joke lol. If they had lit them, I would have waited, but they did it on purpose.

less than a month before training camp. It's almost time!

N8R says:

@ Smartguy

I wasn't trying to call you self centered, it was more or less one of those "zen-like" questions.

About 4 months until Halloween.

I hope you all plan on honoring the avatar bet. I can't wait to see someone rock Jem.

Iceman says:

Happy Fourth of July, all! And Happy Birthday, America.

Yes, I am still honoring the avatar bet because I have confidence in my Dolphins that they will save me from the clutches of me having to sport a Rainbow Brite (or worse, Adam Lambert) icon.

@Iceman

Jets made some crazy moves this year. How do you feel about that seeing you guys are division opponents?

Iceman says:

In the immortal words of revered wise men that came many years before my time:

F*** the Jets!

(*Grabs crotch*)

I got your crazy moves right here!

-M

Arguello says:

Iceman: 1 Jets:0

N8R says:

Oh.. I intend on honoring the bet, but unfortunately I will have no need to change my avatar because the Steelers will dominate.

smartguy says:

Of course I will honor the bet. I'll gleefully taunt and jeer those who think that my Saints are a fluke. Hell, we let Iceman's team pour it on and we still whipped'em.

Arguello says:

Week 8 won't come soon enough.

N8R says:

I don't think the Saints are a fluke… I think the Steelers are better.

Iceman says:

@ Smartguy;

You didn't whip us, we whipped ourselves. They can be masochistic like that… which kind of explains my love for them.
