[allegorical saying] noisy enough to wake the dead
An allegorical saying used to describe an extremely loud or noisy environment, literally meaning "setting off firecrackers in a cemetery". It relies on a pun on the phrase 吵死人 chǎo​sǐ​rén, which can mean either "annoy someone to death" or "disturb the dead with noise".
