    I am, and may Marx forgive me for even uttering this word, En*lish, which sucks most of the time, but one thing I'll forever be thankful for is the fact that unless you live in 1%ville absolutely no one gives a shit how your lawn looks

    Lawns are absolutely the fucking worst, can't wait until we all replace them with food gardens

        Good for you for getting in the fruit trees. Nothing better than going to your backyard and getting some fresh fruit.

    depreciating your neighbors' property is unironically praxis.

        Mmmm, so you need to get an airstream to ward off these freaks. Or be more passively intimidating, it sounds like the want to lord over someone they think they can control.

    do you ever ask if they need help when they are being weirdos that stare at lawns as though they can mow them via telekinesis?

    Grass you have to maintain with water is Haram.

    If God wished for it to be their, it would be their.

    One of my favourite poems, even tho I'm far from a christian and close to an anarchist haha. I particularly love the first stanza, specifically the first few lines.

    Turning and turning in the widening gyre  
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;  
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;  
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,  
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere  
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;  
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst  
    Are full of passionate intensity.

    Here in Aus we don't mind the grass drying usually (because that's a condition called "6 months of the year") but a good lawn is appreciated in a "Geez I like ya grass" kinda way.)

    That said, one of my (admittedly quite well off) acquaintances had an American couple nearby their house make a bunch of snide comments about lawns, and hired a landscaper to turn their front yard into a romantic era-style wild garden with native plants just to be petty.
