Does anybody else think America has the best holidays?

Easter: You hide eggs around the house filled with candy.

Halloween: You get to dress up as something else to hide your shame, and knock on peoples' doors to get free stuff.

Thanksgiving: You get to eat as much as you can and not feel guilty about it.

Christmas: You get free stuff, wrapped in colorful paper, put under a tree. You also get to let your elitism shine by making your house unnecessarily bright.

I'm game.

Oh, and how could I forget? Independence day: You get to blow things up and people won't call you immature.

I have all those with carnival on top of it and divali, and eid (yes my country is very accepting when it comes to these things), republic/independance day and random government holidays D:

EDIT: we don't have thanksgiving D:

It's just eating and spending. Though I suppose that's what most people want out of a holiday.

Those holidays are not unique to America.LJS9502_basic

We have bonfire night, 5th of November, which is even cooler than the rest. :P

At first I thought you meant best places to go for a holiday, I was going to say "clearly you have never been to Scotland" :P

Christmas and Easter are hardly unique to America.

I think Australia has the best holidays. Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Years Eve/Day and Australia Day all being held in Summer. While those in the Northern Hemisphere freeze through their Christmas and New Years celebrations, we have nice summer temperatures.

Also, come back when everyone who is permanently employed in the USA gets four weeks of paid holidays a year.

No, I don't think so.
