Morons letting off fireworks

kaptainmarc · 20 Oct 2015 at 08:32

Just carry around a multi rocket display, one they would use for a finale at a theme park and then let it rip on them like Arnie with a minigun blatblatblatblat they will soon learn you are the firework master.

but in all seriousness there were a few kids messing with fireworks outside mine the other night, I just shrugged it off, If someone handed me fireworks in my teens i would have had a field day

Gather as much information on the youths as you can and report it to the Police.

Liquiduk · 20 Oct 2015 at 08:57

Oh yeah!

Id love a little runt to shoot a firework at a car i was in. Id run them over little *******s

Of course you wouldn't! that would be a major overreaction and unacceptable!!!

However if you were to "accidentally" lose control of the vehicle due to the shock, I don't think anyone could hold you responsible if you were to "inadvertently" run one (or ~~preferably~~ unfortunately all) of them over, despite trying your hardest not to.

Overreaction much? And I bet you wouldn't really run over a child........or would you?!

See, there's the problem, you're anthropomorphising them and seeing them as children when really they're just vermin to be exterminated.

Put it this way mate you ever hit a bird?

Did it smash through your windscreen or bounce off?

Could a firework break through a keyboard?

Schlong&Stable · 20 Oct 2015 at 09:22

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine, OP.

psd99 · 20 Oct 2015 at 09:25

guys we are missing a very important point here, the OP could have died! Fireworks are dangerous!!!! Just kick the kids softly in the head!

Great advice !

Not only that but the sob story i could pull afterwards would help me to win the Xfactor!?

Used to get this too on Bastille Day in France. I think part of the complaint was that this is occurring on non-festival days. I imagine that people don't drop boxes of fireworks on your head on a Monday evening in October

True that, but i know for a fact I wouldn't bring up a meeting and get the police involved in something like fireworks.

I get it, there is a health and safety risk, and people can get injured. But it is what happens. I just used Germany as an example, but MANY countries around the world re lax on things like this, they understand it is fun, no matter what time of year. In England everything is so controlled and boring now due to people like the OP.

Kids should be kids, and if you didn't mess around with fireworks at that age then your loss.

A few years back the kids around here were launching them at the peelers and then legging it down the alley at the side of my house. My dog kicked off and I heard a ruckus in my back garden and some little toerag was trying to get into the shed (obviously to hide). He spotted me, I spotted him, I took off down the stairs and out the back door hoping to catch him, but he was long gone leaving the gate blowing in the breeze. I got to the bottom of the garden and gate just as the cops came bolting round the corner. Then I panicked thinking "what if they think it's me that's been launching fireworks or that I'm harbouring a fugitive" so my immediate reaction was to shout "WHERE YOU IN MY ****ING GARDEN?" at the cops.
