I feel like growing up in the suburbs has severely stunted my growth. I never had the opportunities to hurt myself and my fellow Americans in spectacular ways the way kids from, say, Ohio could (side-note, apparently it is illegal to arrest someone on the 4th of July in Ohio, or on a Sunday for that matter.)
I'm wondering what I can do to finally get those experiences I missed as a child, even though I'm still living in the 'burbs (I feel like I'm having a much less-creepy Michael Jackson moment right now). So, here are some things I'd do on the 4th of July if I could:
- Find a beaten up pickup truck and a semiautomatic weapon. Tie the steering wheel so it's constantly turning right, and put a brick on the gas pedal. Then proceed to take potshots at the truck until it a) blows up, or b) stops running.
- Go fishing, with dynamite.
- Have a BBQ involving "unconventional" methods of cooking meat.
- Shoot stuff.
Ha! Fishing with dynamite. I'd also like to know what BBQing in "unconventional" ways means. Like a blow torch? That would be sweet. Hope you have a great Fourth!
ReplyDeleteI left it open to interpretation. I'll see your blow torch and raise you a flamethrower?
