Made me laugh - book is The Day the Crayons Quit - Oliver Jeffers

Guess the expiry date

I may be in a tiny minority of Irish Redditors in actually enjoying fireworks and the mini-displays put on by random folks on Halloween, I do realise that this is considered sacrilege in these parts - but one thing I imagine we can all agree on - what the actual fuck is up with eejits setting off big display fireworks in the middle of the afternoon? Newsflash lads, you're supposed to wait until it gets dark so people can actually see the feckin' things!

The mindset of those who do this, I will never understand. Just listened to a massive multi-shot barrage going off not too far from where I live, at 2 in the afternoon, nice bright day, presumably that's a few dozen quid at least down the drain for what sounded like an impressively powerful display box that nobody got to see. The clocks just went back FFS, they'd only have another three hours or so to wait to have been able to see what they just set off.

This is a daily thing now, what's up with it? I realise a lot of these folks might be a few shot tubes short of a battery, but setting off big fireworks in the brightest part of the day just defies even the most idiotic logic 😂

Is this a Dublin only issue or has anyone noticed this elsewhere? It's been happening daily for about a week at this stage!
