Are there any positives to fireworks? Got a ton of them going off near my house. Some people say it’s for Diwali, some people say a town near us is celebrating some anniversary. Both seem equally unlikely, but in any case, it’s just loud as shit, fucks up the air quality, scares all the animals, every fucking dog in my neighborhood has started barking. Subjective I suppose but they’re really not worth all the negatives.

Edit: turns out that some dude around here, his dog had a seizure bc of fireworks tn. I think the dog is okay but yeah, fuck fireworks

    Before I left CA, my immediate neighbors didn’t even care for the light show as much as just very loud floor-rattling BOOMs. grillman

      In downtown Sacramento the people on my street had straight up professional full sized fireworks, I don’t even know how a regular person gets ahold of those.
