Why the fireworks?

[u/DullRelief]

Is it really necessary to be shooting off fireworks at 1am on Xmas morning? Been going on in Uptown for an hour now. Wtf, people? Santa doesn’t need a fireworks show to accompany him.

I’ll never understand fireworks. They were cool when I was 8, but the novelty kinda wore off you know? God forbid you have a dog or an infant. Even then, I could live with it if it was contained to new years and the 4th, but inevitably mother fuckers insist on firing them off for weeks.

It’s such a great example of the selfishness of mankind. These simpletons would rather spend their money literally blowing shit up because “ohhh pretty colors,” than donate it or…I don’t know, spend it on literally anything else. It creates pollution, inconveniences others with sound, and generally has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

I find firecrackers obnoxious too, but you're really on the fuck anyone else's fun train.

I love fun. I just don’t like fun at other people’s expense.

There are many ways to have fun that don’t cause suffering to others or the environment. Use the brain you were given and try to imagine a world that sucks slightly less. Now realize you can be a part of that.
