I'm not embarrassed. And there's even a fair probability that one day I'll even buy one of the products I've sampledMore embarrassed than proud lol
Apart from the fact it's on indigenous land for starters?This is what happens when the braindead City of Sydney and Lord Mayor, tender contracts out for fireworks.
From memory Foti have a 5 year contract with COS and Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority to put on fireworks displays.
What annoys the living shit out of me (aside from being the same shit each year) are 3 things.
1. Why do we always have to add indigenous crap into it?
2. We can spend millions on fireworks and not play more than a few seconds of a track to avoid paying royalties. It's like a shitty Nick Skitz megamix each year.
3. Just in #2, it's 2016, how bloody hard is it to coordinate fireworks tuned to go off to music.
This year will be a fucking televised mess again. You'd have thought ABC would learn from last year that Ella Hooper isn't a presenters arsehole.
1. No it's not. Aboriginals would have taken over from Africans / Neanderthals that lived here before they evolved into Aboriginals. Every country has been colonised in history. English colonised Australia. If not for them the Aboriginals would have died out long ago, or been completely and utterly slaughtered if the Indonesians/Chinese/Dutch/Spanish happened to find Australia first.Apart from the fact it's on indigenous land for starters?
Mate if I said Muslim crap on here you'd ban me again.
Very disappointing and hypocritical
The fireworks were far from the best yet. The lasted a whole 12 mins. It's as if they're getting shorter every year. Remember when they were 20 mins?@Wahesh offffffff stop complaining will you! We need to create a thread called "the wahesh whinging thread" lol.
Fireworks cant exactly be done any different, we still have the best display in the world IMO. On another note Im gonna start calling you Costanza because if George had a brother it'd be you.
P.s: you're still my bff
This coming from the one who complains about vegan lesbians and is very vocal about it too@Wahesh offffffff stop complaining will you! We need to create a thread called "the wahesh whinging thread" lol.

Vegan hipster lesbians arent fun like fireworks so you really cant use that one against me. Try again pumpkinThe fireworks were far from the best yet. The lasted a whole 12 mins. It's as if they're getting shorter every year. Remember when they were 20 mins?
You know what pisses me off the most? Every time we see the 'waterfall' feature of the fireworks, we know it's coming to and end. FFS

Seriously remember the 1999 or 2000 fireworks when they had eternity? No one expected that.1. They've been going for twelve minutes for about 10 years
2. You obviously didn't see the dedication to gene wilder in there open your mind a little
3. You just hate fireworks because they make noise and you don't like society so you complain about the fireworks show. If you can do it better haboob id love to hear your ideas
Gene wilder was an icon. The whole idea is to commemorate the year we've had, including honoring icons that have passed on and to celebrate entering into a new year.Seriously remember the 1999 or 2000 fireworks when they had eternity? No one expected that.
Now Gene Wilder is great, but it's not meant to be a dedication to someone who died, let alone a foreigner to our country. Am I right @Mr Invisible or what?
Naked, big titted bitches with a sparkler up their arse? But only the 12am show, not the 9pm one as kids are watching. Maybe they can cover up with a g-string bikini for the 9pm show?Gene wilder was an icon.

The color schemes and synchronization are usually different but even then we still have the best ones in the world. Even dubai cant out do our ones. Its lights that light up our already beautiful city and i honestly cannot see why anyone would complain unless they just hated fire works and noise and people in general.
So tell me what YOU think would make a better fireworks show and then ill be quiet.
With all the technology available they should be more creative with the show. Having the worlds most iconic landmark to play with means the job is already have done. They need to do more with it than just have fireworks.Gene wilder was an icon.

If i wanted to see that, id just buy a computer that uses VR technology. Far better but eventually we will all have access to it. Fireworks are something that's of a tradition, that's like saying "well Christmas trees are outdated so lets stop using them for Christmas and use a picture of one instead"I reckon they should fuck off the fireworks and start using Project Blue Beam (holographic technology)
Honestly Natboy,Apart from the fact it's on indigenous land for starters?

I do agree,1. No it's not. Aboriginals would have taken over from Africans / Neanderthals that lived here before they evolved into Aboriginals. Every country has been colonised in history. English colonised Australia. If not for them the Aboriginals would have died out long ago, or been completely and utterly slaughtered if the Indonesians/Chinese/Dutch/Spanish happened to find Australia first.
2. You were last banned in 2014 and it was for abusive / racist remarks.
Not at all disapointing or hypocritical... and given how long ago it was, I'd have thought you have have gotten over it by now.
Listen shut up for a second.If i wanted to see that, id just buy a computer that uses VR technology. Far better but eventually we will all have access to it.

I gave this a best post because I'm completely agreed about the mixing pot. I've seen one very vocal very racist old lady drop her racism level when her grandson was born from an interracial relationship.Honestly Natboy,
Whilst I look back at English settlement of Australia with sadness to the original aboriginal people, and am the first to defend aboriginals,
I do get frustrated with the "our land" rubbish,
The earth does not belong to any individual group of people as far as I'm concerned,
Humans have been roaming and taking over land for a very very long time,
Australia as an island may have once been solely inhabited by aboriginal people, but not any more,
The land is everyone's,
We humans just borrow it for a short amount of time,
Who knows, one day Australia may well be taken over by China, who knows,
White mans rule over the world was due to advancements in wepons.
But white mans rule over the world is over.
White man is lowering in numbers world wide, the tide is turning,
Aboriginal people will never have the land back as it was over 200 years ago,
You had it for 40,000 or more years all to yourself,
White man then colonised and ruled the land for last 200 years,
But now it belongs to all walks of life, of all colour, good bad and indifferent,
The world is just a big melting pot,
Before you know it, all race of people will not exist, will be just some form of brown human, mixed up of all other races,
