[American Declaration of Independence was the most patriotic days of the year. It was a day to celebrate being American - to celebrate being independent from the governing forces of the British.]
[Americans celebrated this holiday as a mark of their independence from oppressive governments and monarchies. But it was truly a farce - at least for Snake. Despite his cynical attitude towards his country, he found himself up on the roof of the Nexus with a beer in his hand as various meat products were being cooked up on the grill. Gaudy decorations litter the roof, and in the center of the roof is a table with a large tier cake, similarly decorated with the signature red, white and blue.]
[Snake couldn't help but be bitterly amused by it all.]
((ooc: In true Nexus fashion, July 4th celebrations are being held up on the roof. Come for the fireworks, the food or the booze.))
