American Traditions Passed On American Traditions Passed On
By Lord Of Dingoes
Did you know that the 4th of July signifies something other than American The only way to show you love Americaindependence? It's true. It also signifies Brits getting their asses kicked! Isn't that amazing? I know. But how do they celebrate it... in MONGOLIA?... I went there to find out! I actually asked foreigners on AIM. ...It counts.

Dingo: Hello sir, how did YOU celebrate the 4th of July?
*****: wut?

Well, apparently this guy wasn't foreign. But he did speak in an odd dialect. My search COULDN'T be over yet! It just couldn't! I sought out a new person.

Well, I got some answers I was looking for, and I could've given up right there. But I didn't. I was so excited to learn about this that I had to know from a few OTHER nationalities. Where did I turn? ...surfers.

Dingo: Hello, how do YOU celebrate the 4th of July?
*****3: hey
*****3: sup
Dingo: Welcome kind and gentle surfer. Please do not harm me!
*****3: lol ok
Dingo: How do you celebrate the 4th of July, friend?
*****3: fireworks
Dingo: The Mongolian way!!
*****3: what?
Dingo: I cannot believe someone truly does things as others do them. It's phenominal.
*****3: what?You know he's ready for fireworks.
Dingo: What do you do when the water gets to be too much to handle?
*****3: i get out?
Dingo: You make a sound point. If you can't handle the water, don't go in there in the first place.
Dingo: How do you feel you make it when you're out there battling the vicious torrent?
*****3: what vicious torrent?
Dingo: When you're in the heat of the moment! When you think "I sure could use... the American pride." What kind of situations are those?
*****3: i dunno
Dingo: Now, being a surferopian, how do you cope with humans around you?
*****3: what do you mean?
Dingo: For instance, how do you get along with human brethren?
*****3: no whats a surferiopian?
Dingo: ...Are you a surfer?
*****3: no
Dingo: ...I see.


Well, looks like my journeys turned up nothing worth bringing back, but I can sure say one thing, and that's that: Hey Mongolians, kick it like you're American! Fireworks! Way to go. Bless your souls.
Surfers.. seem to be a bit harder to find. But that's the way things are.
