Fireworks safety: Don't be a dumbass

Almost time to celebrate America's birthday by further degrading her air quality. Yay!

Two years ago, I posted this topic. I thought it'd be time again to remind people to not be dumbasses with fireworks with two more examples.

Please do not try to impress your friends, like this dude. Doesn't say if alcohol was involved, but I think we all know it was.

Also, fireworks can easily startle animals, especially pets. Like this horse which was spooked so badly that it ran into a barn wall and broke its neck.

On the subject of startling, also be mindful of small children and combat veterans, the latter of which may have PTSD and could be triggered by the lights and noise.

Have fun playing with fire!

Rules about Fireworks 2017

  1. Don't be drunk or dumb and use fireworks in the most stupid of ways.

  2. Be courteous of who's around you. Because you can cause some PTSD or just generally freak them out easily (Pets, kids, and your Vets who fought for your right to even speak)

  3. Don't be one of those special idiots to use fireworks as a means of riot. **** you if you do.

If you saw any British PSAs as a kid, you wouldn't mess around with fireworks. Or electricity. Or trains.



And to take the edge off, here's a funny video from Mitchell & Webb about cleaning products (probably):
