  • One neighbour with the mower.

    Another with the pressure washer.

    A third one with the whipper snipper.

    Fourth one is eyeing them, and about to join in.

    Sometimes I wish we had looser gun laws.

    • Huh.. I’ve done all three of those today.

      • I'll be doing two of these three on Saturday, maybe I should consider body armour?

        • Stay strapped or get clapped👏🔫

        • Weekends are fine and kind of expected. I guess it's my own fault for working from home today. Oh well.

          • I sometimes have to do this stuff during the week if I'm working on a weekend. I guess there's no one time that suits everyone! Always make sure I don't start until 10am at the earliest.

            We have much yard and being on a corner, two frontages, but I still just try and get it all done as quickly as I can because A) consideration for my neighbours and 2) I just hate doing it!

            • Hey I get it. All neighbours in question are retired and have plenty of time. I guess when every day is a weekend, time goes out the window.

              • OHH see now THAT'S DIFFERENT!

                It's like when you're at the post office on a saturday and it's totally packed with retirees lined up out the door to pay their bills and I'm internally screaming COULDN'T YOU HAVE DONE THIS DURING THE WEEK?!?! 🫠

                Want a hand with the gun shopping? 😁

    • Wouldn't the gun be just as noisy?

      • For a few seconds, sure. Then peace and quiet, until the sirens I suppose.

        • My go-to mantra is "it's not worth the jail time.".

          Do you like vintage jazz? I can recommend Sing Sing Sing for out-noising noisy neighbours.

          • I've got ear buds in and got some chill house music going. I was only musing on the violence. They'll be quiet in an hour.
