I never understood the obsession with fireworks here in the United States. They’re only amusing for a few seconds… the first couple of times that you’ve seen them… and after that they’re just annoying. People light fireworks starting a week or two before the fourth of July, and sometimes the day afterwards, and it only pauses during nighttime.
The stink and all of the litter that they cause is almost nauseating. I’m lucky that I don’t suffer from battle fatigue, because then these nuisances would be truly insufferable.
I wondered if I was the minority on this, because I haven't really cared for them for a long time.
You mention the stink, what do they smell like? Is it like a gun powder smell, and is it only when they're set off really close by or can you smell them from kinda far away? I have a problem with my nose which makes me almost completely nose blind and didn't know fireworks smelled until just now.
I’ve never smelled gun powder, but if I had to describe the stench it would be kind of like burning paper, only maybe more putrid; it’s definitely smoky. I can smell it at medium distances; it’s less noticeable than the smell of a bonfire.
I didn't see this until now, thank you for the explanation.
