Photoshopping your statement onto a billboard to create a fake picture doesn't make it interesting or worthwhile.

People always make this complaint, but I really can't blame the movie studios. Moviegoers have shown time and time again, that as much as they complain about the lack of original IPs, they don't go see them when they come out. Movie studios want to make money. If the public has shown again and again that they'll fork out $20 for a remake or some generic superhero crap, while completely ignoring original films... well, which do you think the studios are going to embrace?
Even the few original films that do come out have to be marketed in the same way a remake if they want any attention. "From the Producers of Nostalgically Popular Movie", "From the Director of Big Series Everyone Knows", "Starring That Actor Who Was in All Those Other Films You Used to Love". Original movies can't stand on their own anymore. The few that do are the rare exception, not the rule.
Man, who would have thought that throwing a Nazi salute, and then when people point it out, making a bunch of Nazi jokes instead of denying it would get you labeled a Nazi?
That's the damning part for me. If it really was a screw up, why would you not immediately say "Oops, that was not what I intended! I just got caught up in the moment and definitely was not trying to give a Nazi salute!" Like, I'd still hate the guy because he's got a shitty ego, but I wouldn't consider him a full-on Nazi. People make grand gestures when in front of a crowd, and let's face it, a Nazi salute is not exactly a complicated gesture. I can see someone making that mistake when they're just trying to be animated.
But he didn't deny it! He instead went on Twitter and immediately started saying shit like "I did Nazi that coming." What the fuck did you expect would happen?
Most places will have loud thunderstorms at least a few times a year. They scare pets, trigger PTSD, and can cause a hell of a lot more damage than fireworks. We also only know about them a few days in advance, and have to deal with additional problems like rain and high winds. But we don't get mad at the thunderstorms, and most of us aren't filled with hatred and dread while we wait them out, they are just something that happens.
So considering mother nature will out-do fireworks multiple times a year without any sort of schedule, I really don't see the issue with people using fireworks to celebrate two times a year on dates and times that everyone should know well in advance.
Do they have to happen? No, but enough people want them to happen that you should maybe just learn to put up with it. That's part of living in a society.
You really believe that, huh?
