Tired of mowing all this shit and now the city's pissing and moaning about weeds so it's time to do something about it. I think I'm in USDA zone 7 if it matters.

Crime Pays but Botany Doesn’t instructional video on how to kill your lawn.
Came in here to make sure this was posted. Dudes a legend and this is the right answer for sure
napalm?

Lots of people near me are dropping plain cardboard or burlap and covering it with mulch
If you just want to kill it, dish soap mixed in water and sprayed on it on a sunny day will take out just about anything in real time.
clover lawns look nice. The seed is usually cheap and sold as a landscape ground cover or a cover crop for farmers. I don't think they need to be mowed or watered.
You'll want to water it early on until established, but after that, it's pretty drought-tolerant.
When you say annihilate, do you want to replace your lawn with something low maintenance, or you just want to go down to wood chips and mulch?
So, clover was mentioned earlier and it's what I have for my lawn
It's pretty low maintenance since you don't need to mow or water it anywhere near as much as grass
In fact, I don't mow my lawn at all and I only water it from my rain bucket and even then, only when it's particularly dry
Looks nice, smells nice, feels nice, it's good
If you don't want to fuss with it at all, you might consider covering it with cardboard and mulch, which will take out the grass entirely
At this point, you'll probably want to either cover it with wood chips or gravel, to help keep anything else from settling in and growing back in
Wood chips have to get replaced every so often because they'll break down eventually, gravel lasts longer but it hurts a lot to fall down on (believe me)
