I'm getting a bit fed up with the fireworks by now. They start every year a little after Yule and typically last until the 6th January, but I guess the bad weather on 6th made people postpone sending off the holiday. Not that it's anything as bad now as it was on the New Year's Eve but still, won't somebody think of the pet owners etc.



This is how the New Year's Eve is like, skip to 3:00 to get to the midnight part. In the end the whole town is covered in a thick cloud of gunpowder smoke. My parents once tried to call me to wish me happy New Year but the noise was so loud I couldn't hear them over the phone...

I read that chapter just because I heard people talking about it and that was NOT VERY NICE, Isayama. I mean I'm glad that I know for sure now but. THAT FANDOM HAS GONE THROUGH TOO MUCH AND YET HE STILL CONTINUES

It has endured much.

Like a live action movie, for instance. Surely we did not deserve this.

Same, a couple of my neighbors were launching fireworks occasionally throughout the entire day.  :(
I like the fireworks on new years eve but after that I'm fed up and don't really want to hear them again until the end of the new year.
Pretentious? Moi?

In a similar vein: no, SectoBoss, putting the coffee bag in the bin and the plastic packaging it came in into your mug will not make you a cup of coffee.

Do you think we can blame the morning and/or lack of sleep ?
... Wait, you drink coffee now ? Wasn't it dangerous ? Did I missed something ? Or I'm mistaking your self insert character for you... ???

I do drink coffee (ever since the day on a geology field trip when I had about 4 espressos in a row one morning and got so much geology done) but usually not more than a cup a day because I'm quite susceptible to caffeine. So yeah, the thing was don't give me too much coffee, or if you do, prepare for the consequences... (fun fact: over half my fanfics have been written on said second cup of coffee, which might explain a lot!)

Is this to make sure I don't have too much or to give me more...?

Well, first to be sure to prevent you from... "consequences", but I have to admit Unlos's idea is... let's say interesting ^^ (You shouldn't have told us you write better after coffee. It's too late, now ;))

Not 'better', just 'more' :D
The amount of idea's I've had to go back and throw away because they didn't work is huge...
