Same goes for concert videos.
Happy 4th, stay safe everyone!

This is my first 4th in this neighborhood. I can’t wait to find out what they do. I hope they aren’t dicks.

My mom would watch the entire 15 minute video

Yeah, whitehumor! If I took it my mom would watch the entire thing. Moms everywhere would!

As is normal at this time of year, my Nextdoor feed is in full blown attack mode amongst neighbors that are either for or against fireworks being lit in the neighborhood.

Let me take a guess. I'm not in your neighborhood, but your nextdoor feed is complaining about:
- scaring pets
- scaring vets
- needing to get a night's rest before returning to work at Retail-O-Rama at 8am Friday
- HAVE SUM CONSIDERASHUN FOR YOUR NEIBORS
- I hear gunshots. Did anybody hear them?
Happy 4th!

Lmao. I love that he’s going for total warfare, he doesn’t care what side you’re on lol.

So, just like 99% of social media videos, the content is worthless.

I still don't understand why anybody cares whether anybody watches my fireworks video. Like... Even if this claim is true that "absolutely no one" will watch, what does that have to do with the price of butter?
8
I care because it's distracting if the person is doing it in front of you. If the video is going to look like garbage anyway, why not just enjoy the moment instead of watching through your phone?

Will butter futures explode or fizzle?

It’s likely they may slowly cool and harden. But they’re hard to predict.

It’s like the people at concerts (do people call them “shows” still idk?) or live music and somebody is holding up their phone so they can get some crappy, shaky, 3rd rate footage, which would be fine, except the phone blocks the stage for some people and is generally annoying.
As for watching them, who cares. It’s the filming that’s annoying.
*it is worth noting that the amount of effort I’ve put into this comment far exceeds my level of caring about this whole subject, but I like to Reddit and use the bathroom and I’m not done so. I don’t even go to events where one might want to record it for posterity, as a rule, so really none of this affects me. Shine on, you crazy diamonds.

They're called shows pops, and my insta stories ain't gonna write themselves.

They are?! I knew I was totally out of touch. But interesting to hear it’s still happening. I thought it would go the way of talking on your cell phone during a movie.

That's a pretty good non-sequitur.

It was very well done. I should hope to be able to insert non-sequiturs with such ease.

Thanks.
Just so it's clear to anyone who might still be in this thread, my point is that how many people watch fireworks videos is pretty irrelevant to the real issue at hand, which seems to be the possibility of blocking others' view.

So true, they are all the same: whoosh, sparkles, bam!

What if I recorded them for myself

You’ll have to check with @whitememejesus, we just can’t predict what he’ll say.

Austin's just an old man yelling at anything invented after 1998.
