independence day speech

Chris      

It’s the most wonderful time of the year (depending on when you read this). We’re talking HOLIDAYS today!

 

Samantha      

Flat out – what is your favorite holiday? And does your birthday count as a holiday?

 

Q.C.      

Sure, why not? Christmas is my favorite holiday because it has all the food of Thanksgiving, but I also get gifts

 

Chris      

My favorite holiday is the 4th of July. It’s summer, so you can go outside and celebrate, and then you get to blow stuff up for freedom. Birthday’s are a personal holiday. Neither I nor the US Government observe it as a federal holiday.

 

Samantha      

So only Federal Holiday’s count?

 

Chris      

Well, let’s talk federal first, then we can go fringe holidays. Because I have a LOT of opinions on Arbor Day

Q.C.      

Go ahead. I’m ready to hear some strong opinions on Arbor Day. That Day needs to be dropped down a peg

 

Chris

First off, I’m a huge fan of trees, but they don’t deserve their own holiday. AT ALL. Not only because it’s a stupid thing to celebrate, but it opens up the floodgates for so many other inanimate objects that someone will inevitably try to rally for.

Then you gotta celebrate Shrub Day, and Wheat Day, and then the entire movement goes off the rails, and the next thing you know, the Post Office isn’t open because we have to observe Thorn Bush Day

 

Q.C.      

I would celebrate the s**t out of Wheat Day

 

Samantha      

Wait – Arbor Day is not an approved Federal holiday

 

Chris      

Good. F*ck trees.

 

Samantha      

Your bank is lying to you! Find a new bank that does not like trees

 

Chris      

Judging by the amount of paper Chase sends me per month, they already don’t like trees

 

Samantha      

Don’t you have a paperless option? I am now worried about trees

 

Q.C.

There are more trees on Earth than stars in the observable universe, Sam. They’ll be fine

 

Chris      

I do have the paperless option, but that doesn’t stop them from sending me credit card offers on a weekly basis.

 

Samantha      

Really? Why did we not include this on our “fun facts” review?

 

Q.C.      

3.04 trillion trees on Earth 

 

Samantha      

Another fun fact: I thought we changed the name of “Washington’s Birthday” to “Presidents Day”

 

Q.C.      

Only if you read the news through the lens of the liberal media, Sam

 

Samantha      

PS our government has it under “Life in the US“

 

Q.C.      

Interesting

 

Samantha      

I did not realize that Christmas Day was a Federal Holiday!

 

Q.C.      

‘Course it is!

 

Samantha      

I thought religion and state were kept separate…

 

Q.C.      

Well most of these holidays are based in some religion

 

Samantha      

Like Labor Day?

 

Q.C.      

Absolutely like Labor Day

 

Samantha      

Do they have Space Day?

Chris      

Space Day is the first Friday in May

 

Samantha      

This article probably came out on April Fools Day (a pointless holiday). I mean, there is a day for everything now, right? I am sure there is a “Day for Everything” Day

 

Q.C.      

Anyone celebrate Festivus?

 

Chris      

My birthday is on Festivus!

 

Q.C.      

Yeah it is! That’s so awesome.

 

Chris      

It’s pretty convenient that Festivus has a test of strength, since my birthday ritual has me defeat someone my same age in combat

 

Q.C.      

…combat?

 

Samantha      

Wow – serious birthday!

 

Chris      

Yeah, hand to hand combat. Right as you wake up. Alarm. Combat.

 

Q.C.      

How has that worked out for you?

 

Chris      

I’m still here, aren’t I?

 

Q.C.      

Hahahahha you sure are. That’s impressive. So when you popped out of the womb, they made you fight the baby in the next crib?

 

Chris      

It starts at age 5 and up. I’m not an animal

 

Samantha      

So were you in the movie 300?

 

Chris      

In it? Living it.

 

Q.C.      

Lmao. And that’s the true spirit of Arbor Day

 

Samantha      

Arbor Day is not about killing things? I mean aren’t you planting stuff?

 

Q.C.      

Who said anything about killing anyone?

 

Chris

Yeah, it’s just combat. Not death-combat.

 

Q.C.

My birthday is on Jesus’s birthday

 

“Presidents of the Church, including Harold B. Lee (p. 2) and Spencer W. Kimball (p. 54), have reaffirmed that April 6 is the true anniversary of Christ’s birth, but have encouraged Church members to join with other Christians in observing Christmas as a special day for remembering Jesus’ birth and teachings”

   

I should clarify that only the Mormons really believe that

 

Samantha      

I love that line “but have encouraged Church members to join with other Christians in observing Christmas…” HAHA. I thought everyone agreed Jesus was not born near December

 

Chris      

Sam, what’s your favorite holiday and why?

 

Samantha      

Favorite holiday goes to Thanksgiving – I love hanging with my family and I dig the Puppy Bowl, haha

 

Q.C.      

I thought the Puppy Bowl was on Super Bowl Sunday?

Chris      

Yeah me too. Sam, are you thinking of the Super Bowl? Both have copious amounts of food, football, and no real purpose

 

Samantha      

No the cute puppy one!

 

Chris      

Yeah, the one that happens on Super Bowl Sunday. Sorry, Big Game Sunday. Sorry, That One Really Important Football Game at the End of the Season To Decide a Championship (Please don’t sue us!)

 

Q.C.      

Superb Owl

 

Samantha      

Yeah does this count as a holiday?

 

Chris      

Does what count as a holiday?

 

Samantha      

The Big Game Who Cannot Be Named.

 

Chris      

It’s huge, no doubt, but I don’t think it warrants a holiday. It’s just a cool cultural thing we can all get together for, not something to celebrate

 

Q.C.      

It feels like a holiday, that’s for sure

 

Chris      

What do you think has more media lead-up, the week before Christmas or the week before the Super Bowl?

 

Q.C.      

Christmas, for sure

 

Chris      

Easily. Okay–what’s everyone’s favorite fringe holiday?

 

Q.C.      

It’s a tie between the Superb Owl and May the 4th.

 

Chris      

Mine is International Skeptics Day–celebrated on January 13th, October 13th, or the first Friday of the year. Nobody can really say for sure when it is.

 

Samantha

Well June 14th is Own Your Share of America Day! That seems like a kind of cool fringe holiday

 

Chris

Yeah it does, and we hope you own your share of America this July 4th as you celebrate America’s Independence Day (the one where we broke from England, not the alien invasion one). Have a safe and happy Fourth, everyone!
