This stupid fuck didn't adhere to the Golden Rule of Fireworks, especially the second part, which is printed on every single package of fireworks and has been printed on every pack sold in modern times, the Class-C ones anyway, which says "Light fuse...get away." They don't put that warning on there just to practice their English. In fact it's one of the earliest printed warnings of all time.
As I've said I once got hold of some fireworks marked "Class-A, Special Fireworks." they weren't meant for the general public at all, and was what we see at a professional fireworks display, where they just explode once in the air just for the BOOM effect. They were loud as fuck. When I set one off on my street, the lift-charge alone was loud enough to bring every single neighbor on the block out onto their front porches to see what it was, and the charge in the air was much louder. Oops. Like this dumbass here I underestimated the power of the firework, but at least I knew which way to point it.
What happened of course is that the guy didn't have any idea what he was setting off so close to his balls, not to mention you're supposed to set it pointing UP, instead of just lighting it and tossing it like a firecracker, like this dumbass did. The energy was directed downward, and the "stars" that make the colors and all and are meant to go off way up in the sky were bounced off the ground. The guy was lucky as hell if he didn't scorch his balls or blow them clean off, and the stars scatter with the force of a shotgun blast at least, and his balls were an easy target.
This photo was captured at the perfect moment. He's just started to react, and he doesn't know whether to cover his eyes or his balls, and he only has two hands. He's lucky if he got his eyes closed in time. He's wearing shorts, and trust me, stray fireworks have a bad habit of occasionally finding their way up to your nuts, even with long pants on, and with those shorts he has on I'd be surprised if he didn't cook his pecker to some degree. The passerby is thinking "Oh, shit...he just blew his balls off." Thanks bro...you really made my day.
So as we know, last 4th of July was basically cancelled, including most traditional fireworks displays. A month or so later it hit me that there was a shitload of un-shot fireworks, all over the place, and I wondered what would happen to them. Although they don't have an expiration date, and some last longer than others, due to better quality and packaging and such, fireworks eventually go bad.
As anyone who's shot fireworks knows, a "dud" doesn't do what it's intended to do. It can either fizzle-out, like your goober did with your last girlfriend, or more-concerningly can behave in an entirely unpredictable way, ha-ha, also like your goober with your last girlfriend. If a dud can be dangerous in good ol' Class-C fireworks, think what could happen with pro fireworks, which have a MUCH bigger boom. And BTW, those Class-A 'works I got as a kid didn't have the usual warning. I guess they figured that if you'd made it to the Class-As, however you did it, then you probably knew the deal.
I'd bet my Three-Finger-Frank's Fireworks t-shirt that they can't use professional fireworks too long after the time intended, and maybe not at all, especially if they've already been wired together and have to be dismantled. So last year around this time I got to thinking..."What happened to all those fireworks? Where did all the fireworks go?"
Where Have All the Fireworks Gone?
Where have all the fireworks gone?
They are not the Class of C
To common folks like us they went
All across this land
Where have all the fireworks gone?
Light the fuse and get away
Some heedeth not the simple rule
And blew their balls away
Where have all the fireworks gone?
That were meant for 4th July
They exploded on the ground
Instead of in the sky
They weren't meant for you and me
They weren't meant for fireworks shops
But it caused hilarity
And amazing photo-ops
They weren't made to go off low
They were made to go up high
But his balls instead, he found
Flew way up in the sky
Most of the articles, videos and news broadcasts mentioned that the fireworks were "illegal," but failed to answer the screaming questions...What made them illegal, and more-importantly where did they come from? The Dark Web? Maybe a few but most of those people probably don't even know about the Dark Web. A friend in the biz? It's very unlikely, unless they didn't have a problem facing potential felony charges. A fire sale at the Wang Chung Fireworks Factory in Macau? It's doubtful.
I can tell you where they came from, although I'm sure you've guessed by now, and I can say this from eyewitness testimony. Since they don't usually give away free fireworks, they could've only come from one place- last year's fireworks displays that didn't happen. These "illegal" fireworks...unless you're a licensed Pyrotechnician you're not supposed to be in possession of them, much less shoot them off. It's an EXTREMELY tightly-controlled business, and the fact that these fireworks mads it into the hands of ordinary citizens who were blowing their balls off, to me indicates just another piece of the puzzle...it was by design.
I'd bet my vintage Black Cat t-shirt that they have protocol to follow when it comes to fireworks that aren't used. I don't know for sure but I'd say they have to douse them and dispose of them in a certain manner. I could be wrong but I doubt it, and this is the first time anything like this has ever happened. I realize there were lots of cancelled displays and leftover fireworks, but shows have been cancelled before, and none of the fireworks ever made it into circulation. It shouldn't happen, yet it did.
The eyewitness? My cousin moved from one of the most beautiful and peaceful areas of the state, down on the coast, to a big city up north of here, where some of the worst "peaceful protests" took place. I'm pretty sure he moved because of his company, but he said he wanted to be as close as possible to the city so that he could "witness" to people, and he knew he had to be near where the action is. He found a place for the fam with a really nice house and a huge lot, and it looks like he's still out in the Boonies but he's actually pretty close to the mean streets.
He's been into the city quite a few times, especially during the riots...umm...I mean the "peaceful protests." Several times he had to dodge fireworks, and he said that the first time he went when they were shooting fireworks he could tell just from the booms that they weren't Class-C stuff, so he asked a few people where they came from. They said that plain vans would pull up and quickly hand them out by the box to anyone who wanted them, for free. Heck even I couldn't have said no to that deal.
They kept the motor running and only stayed a minute or two, and never said a word. Isn't that interesting? Free fireworks, professional-grade no less, brought into specific areas where people were gathering, let's say, and just handed into the people's hot little hands by the boxful? I don't buy that it happened by chance. It's just like the "brick" incidents last year, where piles of bricks randomly appeared out of nowhere overnight, and at precisely the spots where the peaceful protests would take place later in the evening.
Coincidence? You tell me. All the sites trying to debunk it and saying that they were near construction sites were simply full of shit. It happened at least a couple-dozen times, mostly on two or three occasions, and in at least one case it happened on the exact same day in at least a dozen cities across the US. Man that can't be coincidence. Most people will just keep believing the "official explanation" for everything out there, and it's largely because the bad guys know that certain things known as "triggers" will stir an emotional response, and usually preclude any chance of a logical, adult-level discussion.
About a year ago I commented on it on Facebook. I said something like I wished that the next time I wanted to build a new barbecue pit I'd love it if a pile of bricks appeared on MY street corner." A dear friend whom I've known and loved for many years came back with a terse reply. It really saddened me, and showed me someone who in the past would've used critical thinking, but has now changed her tune and like many people just attacks people with different views. It hurt to see, and I'd have been way more surprised if it wasn't "coincidentally" foretold in the Good Book.
She said "Not magic. They were near construction sites." It was short and sweet, and I could absolutely feel her anger, and she never had a bit of that all her life, until recently. That was deeply-troubling too. God, NOOOoooo...she's fallen victim to the bullshit, aka the Beast System. It's all bullshit and yet we believe it willingly, even though it's 100% WRONG, and this is living proof. Think about what she's saying for a moment. She sure wasn't thinking about it before she said it.
Did you notice anything that doesn't make sense about her reply? If you need minute I'll wait... ... ...okay, I'll tell you. If I'm just a fucking Feeb, and every damn thing I've ever said in my blogs is bullshit, there's one thing I know for sure, and that's that you don't put bricks near a construction site, you put them in a construction site. How can ANYONE really believe that bullshit? Seriously, how?
Suppose several stacks of 50lb bags appeared on street corners in the morning...would people say "Oh, it's nothing. They're near a bakery?" You wouldn't think so, but I guess you could get the sheep to fall for that one too. You can't really do too much damage with flour except to have a huge food-fight, but bricks are a different story. Bricks have been a very valuable commodity since they were first fired, and they're useful for other things besides smashing store windows and other mayhem.
I'm sorry sister but that's Reality 101. You do NOT leave bricks NEAR a construction site...never, ever. How my girl can fall for the bullshit is troubling but just a sign o' the times. Do YOU fall for that bullshit? Hint: disregard the "debunking" sites and go to the many videos, if they haven't been scrubbed that is, and hear it from the people who were there filming it in real-time, saying things like "Y'all need to wake up. This is what's going on " You can also check out the hundreds if not thousands of 911 calls, police reports (credible witnesses) and such, and it's a matter of record. NEAR a construction...people will believe anything I guess.
Back to the fireworks. I so wish my cousin could've filmed at least one of the conversations he had about the fireworks, but they didn't want to be filmed, and understandably-so. Who was piloting the vans? I'll give you another hint: it was one of those organizations that formed in 2020, and the name sounds like you're saying "Aunt Iffa." Free bricks for the tossin' and free fireworks for the shootin'. What more could you want?
So where did all the fireworks go? They went into the hands of "peaceful protestors" who had no clue what they were. At least the van guys could've given out flyers with the boxes of fireworks, saying that they shouldn't just be lit and tossed ten feet in front of you like a Ladyfinger, but I guess that was part of the fun. So what if some people blow their balls off or get blinded by shrapnel. At least they were free.
Well, that's the story on where all the fireworks did go. Speaking of, I suppose these same gullible people would also believe that fireworks get delivered near fireworks stands. "Hey, Atomic Al's? This is the driver. Okay if I drop-off these pallets of fireworks near your store?" "Sure." It's the same with bricks. Do people like my girl actually believe that at least half a dozen trucks, on the same day and almost to the hour, really leave loads of bricks near construction sites. So they tell us.
What, did they all just happen to run out of gas a few blocks shy of the construction sites? Did they radio the foreman and ask if they could drop them off three blocks away, and did he say "Sure, no problem. We'll grab them later" or whatever? It couldn't happen even once, much less half a dozen times in one day, and yet my once-cognizant friend actually believes it. It's like a thought is trying to be fully-formed but as it approaches the "logic center" of the brain it gets detoured by a wall of emotion, and never reaches its conclusion. I don't get it at all, and the only thing that makes any sense at all is something else the Good Book says- that many will fall prey to a "Great Deception," Makes one think.
My friend has always been progressive, and her mind is as beautiful as she is, but it's no longer open, or in my opinion fully-functioning, to believe such a ridiculous story, much less display anger to an old friend, which never once happened before., for opinions or anything else. People like her should wake up and smell the gunpowder, and at least pretend to show respect for other people's opinions, friends or not. I'd bet dollars-to-donuts that she's worn a mask about a thousand more times than I have and she's had both Jabberinis, and probably even believes that six feet somehow magically forms a "germ-free" zone around everybody. It's a joke. Wake up. There's some fireworks left I'm sure, so it may be an interesting New Year's too. Stay safe, have a nice day and watch out for idiots shooting Class-A 'works.
