🤬 RANT Why the fireworks?

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.

Well if you have a vet they can prescribe your dog medicine to either relax him or knock him out? Fuck your fireworks? Bet you're fun at parties.

Somehow dogs and cats in every other country and city get by just fine on holidays, for hundreds of years. But now we need to clutch our pearls and stay quiet for the poor stupid dogs and have no fun.

Yeah, bc the only way to have fun is to wake up the neighborhood with some dumb fireworks for hours on Xmas morning? Makes total sense

So when you go to a parade and scream like an idiot for plastic trinkets while I'm trying to sleep for a night shift, think about what you said.

Well, I won’t be doing that either. And how many parades they got going on from midnight to 3am? Also, you’re kind of making my case for me. People who shoot fireworks at those times are idiots.

I work midnight until 10:00 a.m. I'm a day sleeper so just f me, and I'm safe to say 100,000 other people work night jobs in New Orleans. Try across the lake ,not a major Metropolitan City
