Would fireworks continue to be used?

Nope.

I also think they would spend a few days with their heads under their pillows. There's a certain satisfaction in that thought.

I have hyperacusis and only CERTAIN fireworks even come close. But if everyone got it, I would go to all the people that tortured me, like nearly everyone involved with the airlines and PA systems, and torture THEM!

^likes 2ukenkerl's idea.


Maybe they would be continue to be used,because they have been used for so long as part of traditions,people would probably make more of an effort to make silent ones [if that was possible..no idea].


One of the support staff am have has just been diagnosed with hyperacusis,it's great to finally have someone who really understands,rather than outsider views.
