A man in unincorporated Antioch in Illinois was charged on Tuesday with shooting and killing his neighbor over a noisy leaf blower earlier this month. 59-year-old William Martys was working in his yard with a leaf blower when he was shot in the head and killed during an argument with his neighbor, 79-year-old Ettore Lacchei, who the Lake County Sheriff's Office said had "various perceived grievances" with Martys.

    The fucking engine care! I still have 2 tools that are gas powered, a snow blower (way too much snow here for an electric) and a generator (fucking power grid is dogshit).

    There's always something wrong with the fucking things, they can get hard to start, you gotta prep them for storage, it's just such a goddamn hassle.
