The hardest thing to conceptualize about the big bang is that it happened everywhere all at once.

Only if you define everything as everything in the reach or influence of the big bang.

An explosion is an explosion. It's just a matter of scale. How do you apply that to what we're observing?

I believe we call that the "universe".

The big bang was a universal explosion. Trying to fit it in the box of it being just another explosion really limits the ability to describe what (theoretically) happened.
