I say that's quite reasonable compared to what other people fork out.

I don't buy fireworks anymore. Not american so not got much of a need for them. Usually would only buy some in November.
I'd rather go to an event that does their own fireworks. If I buy anything then it's some sparklers to swing about in the garden lol.
The smell of fireworks is so good. I'd love to spend time in america on 4th July just to smell it

If you were in France you could use them to burn something down.

Are you going to watch the Tour? I wonder if they will have quelled things by the time the Tour reaches Paris.

Nah, was just going to go for the sake of getting away from this shitehole for a while.

I'll flick my lighter and chant U.S.A a few times while firing a gun in the air. Just kidding, guns are fucking illegal here I don't own one.

I dated a girl in college which was getting pretty serious. As we started discussing marriage, she told me she saw video games as a huge waste of money and told me that I needed to get away from them. She then went to the fireworks store and dumped $1500 on fireworks. I told her that she was literally setting her money on fire and at least my games retained some value.
That was the first step of many arguments which helped me realize that this probably wasn’t going to work out.

When I lived in SC I would spend between $700-$1000 depending on what neighbors and such pooled in. South knew how to have a good time and entire neighborhoods were out having fun.
Difference I’ve discovered since moving back to Michigan is that people here are just depressed anal ass people in general. Its a couple nights in the year, quite being a bunch of cucks. Neighbors can bitch all they want, I’m giving my family a good time.

Meh, overall its just been there done that too many times, it becomes boring and in fact annoying when Im trying to sleep. Illegal in our city limits but no one cares, fools will be popping off loud shit well past midnight tomorrow. Oh well I have the week off as I usually do so at least I dont have to work the next morning.

Neighbours from Hell
Every year starting in late June/early July my area has fireworks every single night from 9pm to 1am until like October. Not official designated fireworks shows. It’s people setting them off in fields and shit. It’s so annoying and this single-handedly has given me an utter hatred of fireworks. I get it on holidays. Hell, even if people are ultra patriotic and wanna start a day early on July 3rd and carry it into July 5th, whatever. But to do it every night of the summer into the fall as your late night hobby? FFS people in my area need to find a real fucking hobby.

My son and I went to the firework emporium and got a lot of stuff to celebrate the 4th.
In fact Happy 4th July to all my American Gaffers. Stay safe and enjoy the holiday.

Can You Imagine What SureAI Is Going To Do With Garfield?
I was going to mention that is a lot of money to spend on fireworks unless you have a family. But just reading your first post where you mentioned your son and I think that's fine and make sense.
Hope you and your little one have a great 4th of July.

Y'all, enjoy the day. Whether you celebrate or not... If you have the day off, do something for yourself and/your kid(s).
Excelsior!

Yeah, we had some rednecks setting them off around here. I hope it rains tonight, too.

Nothing wrong with that. Fire works are very cool, especially when you strap small animals to them

Blow shit up man hell yeah!

“Aww, it’s so...average,” she said to him in a cold brick of passion
You are going to blow shit up with your son, give him the night of his life, and possibly piss off everyone in your surrounding area.
I can't imagine a better use of $200 that does not involve an illegal substance or several bottles of alcohol alongside smoked meats, crackers, and nice cheese.

Judging by what $80 got me, that's about $500,000 worth of fireworks.
