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 always thought it was a major fuck you to veterans that the big state funded fireworks display where I live is launched like 10 feet from the veterans hospital where they have people living there and being treated for PTSD.
Also I worked second shift so driving home through low visibility “fog” a few hours after everyone stops shooting them off feels eerie when you live in a city that doesn’t get fog. That’s probably not good for breathing, but I don’t really know about just kind of being anecdotal
