This topic is a general purpose thread for people who do not particularly like the fourth of july or certain aspects of it. I personally can not stand fireworks; I live in the city and there is almost always at least one loud firework being detonated in the sky at any given time during the fourth. As I typed this, I heard at least 5 separate explosions.
Anyway, discuss certain aspects (if not all aspects of) that you don't like about the fourth of july. Excuse the rather odd topic title, but it seemed fitting enough. Suggestions are welcome for a new title. (I think I remember how to do that.)
