WaPo wunderwonk Ezra Klein, whose youthful taste for the chillingly nerdish DC social life we’ve noted previously in this esteemed journal of American sociopathy, is back with another installment of You’ve Got to Be Fucking Kidding Me:
I have a friend who hosts a Fourth of July brunch most years in which the food is preceded by a roundtable reading of the Declaration of Independence. I like that tradition.
Sometime in the distant future, should you find it your turn to recite some crap about the King’s repeated injuries and usurpations, and wondering what sin you committed to anger your vengeful god into such inhuman punishment, we suggest you keep the above video handy on your personal computing device to remind yourself that the sole purpose of the Fourth of July is to get shitfaced drunk, make an ass of yourself, and blow the crap out of purpose-built objects.

I think I would have left that party… especially if they forced you to put on accents and wigs.
