Yeah, it's bad for the environment. Nobody ever fucking cleans up. Also stupid people hurt themselves and others.

It shouldn't be a thing for the average consumer in 2018.

Next year in sweden you will need a permit to shoot fireworks

yay
Damn nice, I wish they'd introduce something akin to that over here as well. Or at least add major extra tax which would silence the "but muh tradition" fucks.

I can appreciate a nicely choreographed firework but this dumb stuff that private people are pulling, basically just making noise and awful looking light that pollutes and produces waste? Eff that. Not to mention people throwing explosives/shooting rockets towards people, animals or property.

Not sure if there are a few kids with some heavy fireworks outside or if ISIS is taking over.

I mean, it's like one or two times in an entire year. Let people have some fun for a sliver of time.

I loved them, now I hate them. My cats hate them too which makes me hate them even more. (the fireworks, not the cats)

fireworks are fun. but every 4th of july and new years are we going to have a thread with a vocal minority bitching about fireworks?

people have been setting off fireworks near my house out in the country since christmas eve, almost every night. No big deal i just turn the tv a little louder or go outside and watch.

I love fireworks. Lighting fireworks with my family on New Years are some of my favorite childhood memories.

Few things leave me in such an ill state as parents who take kids to see fireworks only for their children to be completely terrified, crying their lungs out in fear.

People pulling that shit in the city can fuck off. Let the professionals do that kind of thing.

Also something something safe, sane, and consensual

It's my least favorite thing about new years. Watching animals going nuts at midnight always made me really sad.

This is a question that has a "can and should" answer. These kind of answers always bother the crap out of me.

I did see fireworks for sale at Walmart on Saturday night.

I've seen it many times, it's kind of a thing here to put the wooden stick part of rockets in your butthole

no actually, my dog freaking loves fireworks. She will literally watch them go up, if you shoot like roman candles sideways she wants to chase them. but she's weird and fun.

my neighbors have horses and i asked her 4th of july if it would be an issue if we set off fireworks and she said her horses will be fine.

Good to hear, and good that you ask the horse owner.

But how would you feel if your dog, for days was shaking, barking, anexiety and general uneasy?

There are few things that are more of a waste of money than fireworks.

I remember arguing with a professor about that, and he told me that I did the same on video games. Well, one lasts seconds (unless you prolong it by spending more and more and more), whereas one offers 8-100 or more hours of entertainment

I thought this thread was a serious question on whether one could shove a lit firework (sparkly end first) up one's ass without it being extinguished.
