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

    Fireworks should be banned, for a multitude of reasons, but damn if I won’t miss them. I have fond memories watching fireworks. I guess I live in a community largely build around fireworks displays, so to me it’s all about meeting in the park, grabbing some too expensive food from a cart vendor and watching fireworks with friends.
