[Misc] Independence Day fireworks

[Bozza]

What could possibly go wrong?

What a bleak hellscape that neighborhood looks like.

Plain grass lawns, concrete, fencing, boring fungalows.

It's basically an American Saltdean.

Loving the dad that runs last a kid leaving them there

There's obviously a lot of dumb things going on there but I think my main question would be: why are you starting a firework display in broad DAYLIGHT?

North American suburbia really is the most unappealing place to want to live. Dull, identical houses, entirely dependent on driving everywhere. Nothing within walking distance and very little (if any) public transport.

Thank goodness we didn’t do that at all those early season Premier League games

One particular highlight:
"The family told NewsNation that lighting fireworks is something they do annually and that they always take appropriate safety measures."

I've done the old Riverdance jig on the patio before, when a rocket has fallen over pointing in the audience's direction and clatters around for a terrifying few seconds. Had a few catherine wheels fly off the fence as well.

All good harmless fun.

God bless America.

At least none of the kids were killed. Which makes it safer than school.
