83. Think about it: The Declaration of Independence is America's most iconic document, written by brilliant men who believed America was being crippled by taxes, exploited by England and parliament, and were not being treated as well as they felt they deserved. These factors and more led our founders to literally pen a detailed letter (the "Declaration") to King George and England, and possibly the greatest breakup letter in history. To prove my point, I'm going to provide excerpts from the "Declaration," followed by how it translates into actual breakup letter terminology.

84. TRANSLATING THE D. OF I. The Declaration: "When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another..." Translation: There comes a point in every relationship when two people can't work it out, and have to break up and move on, regardless of all the good times.

85. TRANSLATING THE D. OF I. The Declaration: "The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states... He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good." Translation: "For the longest time you've neglected me, disrespected me, take me for granted and try to control every aspect of my life. You no longer tell me you love me, that I'm beautiful or care about my happiness."

86. I WILL: point out the reasons why the authors wrote the Declaration and why they did NOT include the ladies (on the bottom of BOK pg. 22)
