Happy American Independence Day to those who celebrate it, and happy Monday to those who don't. I've always been fond of this holiday, because it's the one time of year where it's appropriate to indulge one's inner pyromaniac. Sure, my neighborhood has sounded like the center of a war zone for the past several hours, but I consider it a small price to pay for the pretties.
Speaking of which, I have pictures!

Yes! And you could always get even more inventive. I was googling homemmade fireworks for, er, fic involving a certain pyromaniac, and came across this.

I think the vagina in question was actually compared to a Venus flytrap.
Ummmmmmmmmmmm....
Wheeee!
