As a teenager I loved it. Blowing stuff up was always fun, honestly that part still is but these days I blow up electronics.

As an adult. I fucking hate it and can't wait for it to be globally banned. The stress on household pets alone is enough reason to ban it, never mind the teenagers blowing off their hands or the huge mess it causes. And of course the mess gets cleaned by other people than the ones that made it.

Thankfully the Netherlands banned it, however our neighbors didn't. Trash people will buy overpowered fireworks from Germany and set them off here which is arguably worse.
