 As you may recall, the film "V for Vendetta" was released in 2005, exactly 400 years after Guy Fawkes was caught and the Gunpowder Plot was thwarted.

In the film, V invites the people of London to join him in a year from then, to "give them a 5th of November that shall never, ever be forgot."

Well, this 5th of November is Election Day in the United States, and the 419th anniversary of the arrest of Guy Fawkes. This means that next year, 5 November 2025, will mark 420 years. Yeah, 420. 😅

It'll probably end up meaning nothing (right?), but the next year will definitely be interesting! 😬 
 Just watched this with Jaden Sunday night! Remember the 5th of November!!!  😁
