Saw a TikTok about some woman asking why men have to disturb the peace of a Saturday or Sunday morning by mowing their lawn or using a leaf blower, and you would’ve thought she went on a bigoted rant by the comment section. Like damn she was just talking about how it would be nice to enjoy a peaceful morning and random commenters took it as a personal attack. Shit you not I truly believe some suburbanites would go to war over their lawn the way they treat it like a fortress to a castle.

Is this not extremely silly when you type it all out? Time is a circle and I feel like I’m a peasant under feudalism watching kings, nobles and knights protect their land like it’s under some type of threat

    Lawn fixations are one of the deepest core values of boomers in a way that transcends generation. Xers and even some older millennials that I know are also lawn fixated, sometimes doing petty shit like cutting down native plants in neighbors’ yards and bragging about it later because it’d be too much trouble to get them legally punished for it. grillman
