I'd title the thread appropriately if I were you.

Celebrating a national holiday is not epic win. It's completely normal. There is nothing 'epic win' about it. :eyebrow:

Perhaps you should title it, 'Independence Day thread'? A lot more true.

Okay, I love America and I'm not saying the anthem isn't "epic win," if you use that term to describe something good. But maybe you should name the thread like "American National Anthem" or "Fourth of July--National Anthem" or something.

I think this title is misleading and suggests a lolcat or some dude on a motorcycle getting his nuts chopped off somehow.

Those two things and many others are widely considered "epic wins." And yes, I have studied Win 101, Advanced Epic Win, and Lolcatology--so I know what I'm talking about.

I suggest changing the title, adding more to the description, or taking it down.

But aside from that, Happy Fourth of July.
Part of me grew up here. But part of growing up is leaving parts of ourselves behind.

I suggest some Tom Lehrer- merely because I feel the urge to share some Tom Lehrer in a thread so aptly named. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIpr0s52yVk&feature=related

Unfortunately here, people only celebrate the Fourth of July so they can have an excuse to throw a party. :( I bet 10% of Puerto Ricans can name the second U.S. president.

See, this is the first time I have been in US soil for the 4th. of July. This place is a ruckus! I know parties are good and what not but... it's still morning! Can't they wait to start the hoopla later on this afternoon? And, this celebration isn't even Puerto Rican. For chrissakes!

Romanians are Latins. Hungarians are the only Magyars this side of the Urals. And I think a Voivode is a duke or something along those lines.

Magyars are more commonly associated with Hungary. It's even on their coins. So it's possible that the person could have been referring to a different country, but Hungary is more likely.

My confusion must stem from the fact that Hungary had Romania under its rule for quite a while. I seem to recall a problem in the are with the Magyars too.
