In the cold sober light of day, an observation. We as a great nation suck at ringing in the New Year from Times Square.
2/ Having watched most of the #nye celebrations and fireworks/drones shows (yes drones!) around the world (hey I had to go into work yesterday) I can say with 100 percent certainty that we are a big FAIL
3/ Other world cities have these spectacular and stirring and beautiful displays. I’m talking about you, Paris. Look at this
4/ Dubai, always taking it to the next level with those fountains, a close second.
5/ London, classically beautiful.
6/ Drones were a new addition. Singapore, you were staggering. How is this possible????? My kids will have to explain this to me.
7/ Not to mention Australia Greece etc etc all gorgeous and iconic google them all
8/ But in the US at the appointed hour we get some complete bozos making stupid jokes while the mayor dances around. And then finally the big countdown...to what? A “crystal” ball you can’t even see bc of all the ads and neon billboards that literally are there EVERY DAY
9/ Look at this. Seriously???
10/ Even your own mayor is baffled nypost.com/2019/12/27/de-…
11/ COME ON AMERICA. Why do we dutifully tune into this? Why do we accept this from one of the world’s great cities? It’s sad. I’m sad.
12/ Other American cities bring their A-game. Chicago. (Look at you beautiful Chicago) Vegas (well we expect it from Vegas) 
13/ Start spreading the news. It is time for a NYE REVOLUTION.
14/ NYC either steps up its game to REPRESENT or the greatest firework celebration of our great nation should be in the capital WASHINGTON DC
15/ It’s up to YOU New York New York. Get yourself together
16/ PS bonus points to Paris for going into the countdown with a remix of “Stronger” which @kanyewest somehow knew would be the song we all need in 2020
My sis in law from Brooklyn rightly points out #buffalo has great fireworks. I agree. Let’s see some more awesome displays from our great cities! Please share them with us!
