Dear Fireworks Lover: Fireworks on May 24th or Canada Day okay fine! But almost every single summer evening? You moved to a rural lake outside Halifax so how about a little respect for the environment? There are more beings in this world than you oh latent child! You moved to the country so pay some attention to it. Every night it sounds like gunshots and explosions. We go to bed and get woken up! My dog cowers and shivers! At the beginning of the summer we still had loons. No more! Please STOP it! And by the way, you don’t need to keep your lights on all night either! —Tortured Across the Lake

Sounds like they put the cunt in cottage country?
While I don’t live in cottage country we do have a group who seems to enjoy fire crackers and/or cap guns at odd hours of the night. At least 4 nights a week I can count on me being woken up by them, and my dog having a panic attack in the corner.
Some people are just inconsiderate.
Stop being a wet blanket. Better out in a rural area then in the city. And it happens in here (city)too.
You could always go talk to them and explain your concerns…too easy?
How it is any of your business if they want to keep their lights on all night?

But, if you live in certain sections of this slumhole you get real fireworks courtesy of Mr. Glock
Welcome back Ivan
Thank you Baz. I thought of you watching the Spitfire and again when I visited the War Museum. ALL of the mannequins there are blue – to avoid offending anybody, no doubt. What a country!
If no one is complaining directly to them why the fuck would they stop? Yes they’re being douchebags, but all the neighbors are aiding and abetting their douchebaggery!
Since when is North Preston referred to as “country.” OP, those are not fireworks, they’re gunshots. The lights are spotlights by the RCMP looking for grow-ops.
and you know it’s not the patriotic person setting them off. i chased a bunch of these little bastards the other night, and caught one by scruff of neck. i was going to shove one of the rockets up his ass, but he cried too hard foor me to do it. i made the little fuck show me his i.d., and told him, next time i heard them, i was going to come and get him.
has been pretty quiet since then too. plus i destroyed all their toys they left when they fucked off. there was about 200 bucks worth.
buying a house can be much like starting a business…….location, location, location.
Well I guess you made a poor choice when choosing your permanent residence then didn’t you. Sounds like you need to own your own island with a lake in the middle, just for you. Unless the neighbor is holding you down and firing roman candles from your ass, there’s not a whole lot you can do about it is there?
