    I heard about a guy who tried to shoot a rocket out of his butt. He ended up in surgery with damage that the nurses are probably still talking about. If you can do something stupid with technology, somebody has.

      I have family in medical professions, and that story is pretty tame compared to some of the awe-inspiring stupidity they’ve told me stories about.

      Happy 4th of July to you from Finland too.

      We Finnish have adopted the Chinese tradition even further, using fireworks to celebrate New Year’s eve – that actually is only 25 days from our independence day.

      Fireworks are all the more spectacular in the dark of the northern winter ^^

      Thats because we’d let one off for every beer we drink, every night.

        They’re illegal in many states of the US as well, but we set ’em off anyway…

          They aren’t illegal in either the US or Australia. You just have to have a license for the ones that shoot up in the sky and explode, which makes perfect sense.

    funny how the fireworks _are_ illegal in Australia, but all my numbnut neighbours seem to be able to buy them all year round, judging by the fact that they set the damn things off all year round. 🙁

    Mombug in panel four sounds like my mum talking to me and my brother, pretty much all the time 🙂

    Come to Portugal where fireworks are used to celebrate everything… Except our own National Day, because no one really cares about it.

      Same in Spain! They can’t afford to fix the potholes in the road but seem to be able to have daily fireworks… =P

    I have actually done firework wars with roman candles and baby rockets. It was okay though, we wore shades as protection.

    Ah, yes, the day we celebrate the independence of our country by blowing millions of tiny craters in it all over the place.

    FWIW, most the combat vets I know are not keen on the way the endless firework blasts cause them to have mild to severe flashbacks of their combat experiences.

    Man the third panel is hilarious! Each panel is gold, but three is silver AND gold. I totally love your comic, I read it every day, it’s such a bright spot in my day. 😀
