You really want to celebrate Guy Fawkes. Go blow up a government building.
It is more than just the memory we are celebrating.

lol what a response... "dont know. Looked in the mirror lately"
you really must be having a bad day. coming into a thread raving about a day we are not even talking about. then insulting me in the process after i told you to GTFO because we were not talking about november 5th. then just now claiming i insulted you first by calling you a nimrod, when infact it was you who did so before changing your post to "Got it mixed up." yes, clearly you are mixed up.

Oh, and you better video tape the fireworks with something that weighs more than a pound. I want good quality HD video uploaded ASAP after the start.

No, calling me "****ing high" was the insult I'm on about, that's why I called you a "nimrod."
And yes It completely slipped my mind that the two different days are completely different. Honest mistake.

well a guy at my show last year took video with his iphone. dont even know who he was, the party was not at my house. last year he said he wanted to take more video this year though. the finale i have this year should outdo what i posted... atleast in intensity. but its about 20 seconds quicker.... meh its a tradeoff.
