Being in Europe the last 3 years, new years is a huge deal. Even little ass rinky-dink towns, everybody buys everything that could possibly blow up and all go to random parks around the town to blow stuff up. Simply amazing. Now I'm here in the states, in a metro area that has almost 3 million people, and the city has no fireworks. The county has no fireworks. And setting them off is illegal. WTF??? It is winter: nothing will burn. F off with Americans being snowflakes. So disappointed. /rant.
