Happy bonfire/Guy Fawkes night!

[Nima D'Graven]

To everyone who is British, happy bonfire night and all. Please keep safe when you go to firework displays and if you're having a homemade display, please keep even safer because as you know that's even more dangerous . Don't do anything bad with any bonfires and don't shove sparklers in anyone's faces (Make sure you wear gloves!). Anyway, just a friendly reminder.. Have a happy bonfire night!

And to those who aren't British. Bonfire night is the day when we "celebrate" Guy Forkes. Guy Forkes was a notorious terrorist who planted gunpowder underneath the Houses of Parliament something like 400 years ago. He was going to blow up the Houses of Parliament when the police caught him. During this time of year, kids will often sit with miniature dolls, begging, saying, "Penny for the Guy." And things like that. It's not exactly an important date, but it's a fun date where we get to see pretty fireworks .

So who is going to a fireworks display tonight? I'm not. I have work, whee.

Nay. It's just the infamous Zorlon-nearly-being-blown-up-by-a-firework picture.

That picture still amuses me, even though I remember it being posted in the twat thread almost two years ago now .

Ah, when the twat thread was popular and was littered with my doctored Dot Cotton pictures. Ah. Those were the days .

EDIT: Bugger. Did I spell Guy Fawkes wrong? Oh well, my history always sucked . Nevermind.. lol.

Dot cotton pics? I'm scared.

btw don't worry about the spelling, all that matters is that Zorlon provided us with a laugh

They already said that...

And I remember those pics... The original twat thread was the best...

Er... Yeah... Why celebrate this particular event...? Was the House of Parliament evil back in the days...? Is it still evil...?

We just had dead people's day over here, Novemember 2nd... Party on...

I learned about Guy Fawkes and the holiday in English class in 6th or 7th grade... Anyway. Shall I correct the thread title? It's annoying the fuck out of me.

Reminds me of the time I left my lighter next to $400 worth of Fireworks. The fourth passed quickly that year...

I wasn't going to be drunk with those fireworks around I'm not that stupid and well I don't do drugs anyway.

OMG Zorlon posted in the Free For All!!!!!

Well you guys are overworried about homemade fireworke displays. I have been handling fireworks since I was a small child. It's only dangerous if you are extremely stupid. You can be a little stupid and not get hurt as long as you use at least a little common sense.
