Just an FYI... in the US nobody "celebrates" Black Friday. It's a shopping event pure and simple. Some people do it... most don't.

Because you're hoping, after Brexit, that we would consider you for statehood.
Unfortunately, as per a previous post[^], we've enough troubles of our own with respect to incorporated third-world territories.
So - for the present - you'll need to limit yourselves to worshipful imitation.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
