A long while ago when I was a dumb teenager one of my buddies lit a firework and then just stood there holding it like a dumbfuck. Finally he threw it, it went off about half a second after leaving his hand, which he drew back IN MY FACE to throw. Less than a second from being blind. No more firecrackers after that.
