Unless your goal is to set off car alarms, scare people’s pets, and upset veterans who have ptsd. Then, they are amazing. Equally amazing for signalling you are an inconsiderate dick. Other people don’t want to see or listen to your display of insecurity and lack of self satisfaction. Want to see the flashy boom boom in the sky? Go to fucking disney world. Otherwise, leave the other 99% of us alone.

    I don’t mind them when people don’t set them off in the middle of the night. My cat is absolutely terrified and twice a year it breaks my heart to see her cowering in fear under my duvet. Therefore I would 100% welcome a ban. They also kill birds and mangle idiots’ hands. Though it’s probably deserved but it’s putting undue pressure on health services.

        Ooooh oh OHHHH you little sh… Thanks for the giggle though. I’ll have you know my delicate cupcake princess is not a murderer.
