I just think the novelty of these type of displays was up in the 90s, It’s time for an upgrayedd. I propose leprechauns flying up and down the river wearing water jet packs, shooting people with their Chicago-style hot dog cannons would be more with the times. What’s your idea?
This causes no harm to the wildlife and is a fun celebration. People here are always talking about “let people enjoy things” when that thing is some counter-culture thing. Well, I say let people enjoy things, even when that thing is a mainstream holiday. Have some fun. Let loose.
I don’t mean to sound all new agey, but I feel like we’re disrespecting the planet by dyeing a freakin river.
