Thunder jackets are decent.
Fuck fireworks and fuck Diwali. Or at least the noise both of these make as it is ruining my dogs (and therefore my) life.
Get to fuck.

A chap is a term for penis though? Like your old chap? Yes, but in the case of that headline (ciao fuck) chap is just a way to be as close to racist as possible without actually being racist. Have you ever heard anyone call it a chap's eye?

I've got Classic FM on for the cats and some Muppets texted in about their tortoise. That'll be the reptile that senses vibrations rather than sound then. The reptile that won't really actually hear the fireworks.

It's like a fucking warzone in noise terms here atm. No public displays, just the locals. I hate it, and them.

Either your house was built by one of the three little pigs (or Barratt - see Psychotext) or you might actually be in a war zone if they're shaking your house 😃 We've precious few fireworks being set off near us, but the cats are getting very chilled with the classical music... Which is starting to do my head in.

Him just sat there at home, getting drunk and finding things to put up his penis. Also being proud enough of it to talk to a newspaper about it. Being called Barry. His parents certainly had an idea of what he was going to grow up into

Karma is a bitch.
It seems an mlrs battery has just deployed a couple of doors down from me and has decided to have a live firing test.

The ones you buy from the supermarkets. They are for nonces to entice kids and very very stupid people surely?
Proper big displays with qualified people running them I can allow but home displays? Just buy a gun instead and do us all a favour

Our 5 year old is desperate to go see a display, the 2 year old is terrified by them. We compromised by standing in the driveway and seeing a few go up from a few houses down, youngest stayed inside and watched 5 minutes of frozen with me checking on her every 30 seconds.

When I was at uni the house next door was a Chinese family and they used to really go for it on Chinese New Year. The only way I could hear the tv in the evening was with headphones on, a few times I was sure the fireworks were going to come through my window.

Are you sure half of it isn't just small arms fire?

Have you ever heard anyone call it a chap's eye? It’s been in use since at least 2004 www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=chaps%20eye&=true

Perfect cover for it and there has been an unusual scream or 2 Out here in bumpkin land, they just chuck a box of shotgun shells into a fuck off great big fire and run. Tbh, I think some of the non-launch fireworks you can buy these days are just unsold airsoft or paintball pyrotechnics in a different wrapper. You can buy some pretty mean stuff nowadays.

I'm not arguing that chap isn't euphemism but chap's eye has never been a thing.

It does seem like they intended to use the racist term but said chap instead and then put a winky face at the end. It's the Sunday Sport though so yeah
