A sign? It is a fact, you do not need a "sign".

I know someone that was a partner of a fireworks store in one of those warehouses. Surprisingly profitable and they didn't have to do anything. Just got the k-1 every year.



I'm not doubting the profitability of the enterprise. He said his son manages a location, which tells me that he has an active role in running and operating it. I've yet to see an employee at a fireworks stand that I would trust with a stapler. They're basically carnies with less fingers.

We didn’t shoot fireworks in Austin this year due to the massive drought we are going through. Brush fire season man. My grass is crispy even with regular watering.

Or a sign that Bidet has destroyed the patriotism of a large percentage of the population. He has certainly destroyed mine.

That's not what I said, but you are so fricking broken that's what you took it as.

Turn the internet off and go outside for a while

My son has managed a fireworks stand in Austin the last ten years. Yesterday his total holiday sale was only 1/3 of previous years. Looks like money to burn is way down



Or...

It's because fireworks were ruled illegal inside all metro city limits due to the fact we haven't gotten any rain since 2012.

And the economy sucks.

People are prioritizing their spending. Pretty hard to justify buying $200 worth of fireworks when gas is north of $4 per gallon and you’re spending double on groceries than you were this time last year.

Those fire work stands take CC's. A lot of debt is being generated.

Not upset that fewer Americans have money to literally burn.
