He gave me a refund, but he didn't make me sent them back, so basically, I got some free fireworks :D

I know I should but can never be bothered. The can always seems to fly in whichever direction I piont it. I may be dumb enough not to wear glasses, but I'm not dumb enough to point it at myself. :D

They're cheap and unpredictable.
About a month ago, I was minifying an old plastic table so it would fit in the trash can (aka hammering it to bits)...

Well, a huge chunk of plastic flew up and hit me in the face less than half an inch from my eye...besides a little blood I was fine, but just a little up more and I would be blind in one eye!

Here's how they look now that I'm done with them. None of the cans actually flew off, but they did go bang as they blew the vents open. I did have goggles, but I actually needed gloves, since I blew them up by holding them in pliers over a candle, and I ended up with melted wax all over my hands.
