Editor’s note: this is a post about American Independence Day celebrations

Alright, I’m going to launch explosives around your house. For several hours. Yes it is dangerous and terrible for wildlife and the environment. And yes your pets will get sick from eating the debris and you will feel terrorized inside your own home.

No you can’t opt out of it. Everyone is doing it and frankly it’s weird that you don’t want to.

No you can’t be the one launching the explosives you need a license for that. You can however launch these marginally smaller ones though. Yeah just whenever you want. 2am sounds great.

So anyway, fireworks were a mistake and it’s never too early to start reminding you of that.

    Thank you. Fuck fireworks and the apes who enjoy them.

    That aside, what do you even have to celebrate? Fuck you if you’re proud of any of this.

      I’ve never thought about the country when lighting off fireworks. It is just the time of year to do it.

      All of the points OP put down to not light off fireworks I completely agree with. Maybe “apes” is the correct description because that boom boom sparkle really fires off the seratonin in me.

        So you’re a mindless sheep with lack of critical thinking skills?

          You’re a very charming person with rational, valid takes all over this thread.

          That’s a bit harsh. I already admitted to being a fireworks gooner in the original comment.
