Official SJ.com fireworks (or not) thread

From my desk, I can hear them going off. I guess that counts for something ... right?

 

Our partner TV station and our newspaper sponsor fireworks over the river along with music and a simulcast. Starts in five minutes.

 

I'll be watching them from the roof of a parking garage next to my husband's newspaper since he has to work.

 

Count me in the minority, I was glad to work today. It's been raining since 9 a.m. so I really didn't make much -- except for time-and-a-half.

 

No. And I'm pissed. I have to go to the airport to pick up some fucking major from Guam who can't understand he's not supposed to arrive until Sunday. Thanks, sir, for fucking up my evening.

 

That sucks because military base fireworks displays are some of the best around.

 

My fuckstick neighbors are shooting some off in the backyard right now. This is after I come home to find them using my parking space as a launching pad.

 

Yeah, some folks on post said those here at Lewis are pretty good.

 

That is when you go and buy some bottle rockets and launch them directly at their car.

 

I went the passive aggressive route and completely ignored the guy and didn't even look at him when he said the cans in my spot were just for bottle rockets. And, of course, I am now the asshole, but they can go fuck themselves.

 

No aerial fireworks in my neighborhood because of a drought. So the fuckstick cross the street has been lighting them off all day -- with much of it coming from his 7-year-old nephew.
I let the dog out to go pee and some other assfuck across the valley is shooting off a gun.....
