If you’re reading this, you’re in one of three groups of people: either you have to work on the 4th of July, or you don’t. If you’re in the third camp, you’re not even an American, and having to work or not work on the 4th is completely insignificant too you. If that’s the case, please proceed to the following memes.

The 4th of July is a trick holiday, because it always seems to fall in the middle of the week. Some people literally have this entire week off, while others are doing the awkward tango of not working Thursday, and then jumping back to work on Friday for one last hurrah! Whatever your schedule looks like, it’s time to celebrate America, which entails pre-celebrating America tonight. If you can’t party till the night becomes morning, these memes might be a sufficient substitute in the «having a good time» department.
