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.
Most places will have loud thunderstorms at least a few times a year. They scare pets, trigger PTSD, and can cause a hell of a lot more damage than fireworks. We also only know about them a few days in advance, and have to deal with additional problems like rain and high winds. But we don’t get mad at the thunderstorms, and most of us aren’t filled with hatred and dread while we wait them out, they are just something that happens.
So considering mother nature will out-do fireworks multiple times a year without any sort of schedule, I really don’t see the issue with people using fireworks to celebrate two times a year on dates and times that everyone should know well in advance.
Do they have to happen? No, but enough people want them to happen that you should maybe just learn to put up with it. That’s part of living in a society.
Oh you sweet summer child, where people only light off fireworks twice a year at expected times.
Motherfuckers set em off at 3am multiple times a month around here, and it’s not just like one problematic house or something
And what kinda shithole is this? We’re redneck as fuck, and on the bleeding edge of town. I hear nothing but the occasional gun pop from the woods, and you can barely hear that if you’re outside and paying attention.
