Heh. Opposite to everyone here, I am pro-fireworks.
Once a year.
Bird deaths are sad thing but if it's a planned thing once a year, people can shelter their pets and folk who are vulnerable can simply prepare. No harm done, honestly.
But oh my god do I want to murder wankers who proceed to shoot fireworks, often just under peoples windows, for weeks after that. Dear god am I feeling hateful for that.
And yeah, about why I like fireworks - they are pretty, feel amazing, are special occasion and overall, are fun. And yes, that's literally blowing money into the air so I don't do that much, but I still love them.
Edit: Oh, and when done en-masse, there's something magical to them. Even awe inspiring.
Agreed. On the holiday, even a bit on the weekend is fine. But last year we had one asshole somewhere in the neighborhood who was setting off those ones that are literally just a large booming noise until at least 12am for about la week straight. This year has been much more reserved. I'm thinking they either moved or possibly their immediate neighbors threatened them.
