    I wondered if I was the minority on this, because I haven’t really cared for them for a long time.

    You mention the stink, what do they smell like? Is it like a gun powder smell, and is it only when they’re set off really close by or can you smell them from kinda far away? I have a problem with my nose which makes me almost completely nose blind and didn’t know fireworks smelled until just now.

      I’ve never smelled gun powder, but if I had to describe the stench it would be kind of like burning paper, only maybe more putrid; it’s definitely smoky. I can smell it at medium distances; it’s less noticeable than the smell of a bonfire.
