@Chris:

You want an extra level of hatred for fireworks?  Try them with a special needs child who freaks out at loud noises.

Oh no….

In that case sideways, cricket bat, in the @ss.

I love them. Although I’m sorry for the troubles it causes you guys.

I'm not sure why as a general society we revere fireworks. Seems more like cultural conditioning to me. Bit's of color going bang in the sky. Once you've seen it you've seen it. As close as general society can get to a type of war-like experience without being in war? I don't get why we settled on fireworks being a thing. It's not something that makes sense when explained….

[Matty123]

Different things make sense to different people….  I mean we buy 400 Dollar pants.

[Snowy]

I'm not quite sure that explains a fascination of fireworks. There's many layers and reasons to justify buying expensive pants. I've not heard that about fireworks…

[Snowy]

Whilst I'm in unpops, I'll throw another one out there. Time; New Years, WTF? A made up date based on the current calendar in vogue. I'll take a day off like anyone. The amount of celebration for a man made construct for tracking the sun is just odd.

(I generally try keep out of this thread as I'm about as unpop as it gets and realize it ;))

I hate that my wife has a child- like obsession with fireworks…

If this were an Asiam forum, I would be wildly unpopular

[Matty123]

Gunpowder is an Asian invention. You’d be hard pressed to douse that flame.

Fuck Asiams as well.

Right, reasons that make sense to you. But that would mean yours is the only opinion that matters. That yours  is the “Right” opinion.

Every last Asiam.

I think Frank Sinatra sounds like moth balls smell.

Who’s green and sings?      Frank Snotra!!!

@seawolf:

I think Frank Sinatra sounds like moth balls smell.

And "My Way" is one of the shittiest songs ever recorded.

except for the Sex Pistols version

[seawolf]

Well, I guess that wasn't such an unpopular opinion. Apparently Frank Sinatra sucks, and everyone knows it.

[Seul]

Unpop-op: I love Frank Sinatra.

[seawolf]

You're entitled to your (unpopular) opinion.

@Seul:

Unpop-op: I love Frank Sinatra.

Now that’s funny. But I too love the chairman.
