14 - You're being sarcastic right? America is the only country that celebrates 4th of July. Other countries have their own Independence Days.

It could go the other way around: I had to explain that Thanksgiving is NOT a global thing.

I know that in Canada, Thanksgiving is the second Monday in October. Hey, OP, just don't try to tell her that the Christmas traditions she loves are a ripoff of pagan festivals. That'll make her head explode.

You know, it's people like that who give Americans bad names. We're not all fat, stupid people. Just an unfortunate majority.

Next you'll be telling her that Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean is there all year round and doesn't just appear for twelve days of Christmas?
