Meg: Aren’t you leaving for work soon?

Eric: No, Meg. In this country we have a holiday called Independence Day, and most people have that day off from work.

Meg: Oh, right, it’s that day when a couple people light off a few fireworks. Boring!

   Heard on twitter:

   “July the 4th Boston Fireworks night. I should say, it’s not even comparable to what we have in my hometown, a 3rd tier city in China.”

   Funny. So the U.S. isn’t all that impressive to Chinese people anymore, is it? LOL.
