Happy Fourth of July, Midwesterners. This is one day of the year when we really lock in as a culture. Because it combines some of the things that we are best at. We love throwing any type of processed meat on the grill. We love asking everybody how they would like their burger and then proceeding to cook them all the same way. We love clicking tongs in the air to make sure that they work before we use them. We also love calling things salad that aren't really salad.

And what is the Fourth of July if not an opportunity to eat every kind of salad that isn't salad? Fruit salad, potato salad, and heaven forbid Snickers salad. Midwesterners are also really good at kicking their feet up in the lawn chair with a cold beer and letting the day wash over them.

And what is the Fourth of July if not an opportunity to kick up your feet have a cold beer and let the day wash over you? We are also great at doing things that are slightly illegal. Like setting off firecrackers in a state where it is not legal to sell them. Who’s going to stop us today? Nobody. So enjoy the day Midwesterners. And use these memes to celebrate.
