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.

I think that's nothing compared to all the, y'know, irreparable destruction and pollution we do to the to the planet tbh.

In what capacity is it anymore disrespect than doing literally anything else?
