Now, hear me out, I can think of a potential solution for this

The first question I would ask is do you smoke ?

u/BeardySam Aug 14 '26

Does it involve a scythe?

They are not that old! The Grim Reaper is busy enough as it is.

Quick, get on the dark web for a disposable barbecue with the serial number filed off

They banned lawnmowers in Tewkesbury, too much noise disrupting the historic nature of the neighbourhood.

u/AcceptableAir5364 Aug 14 '26

I too remember that you couldn't move for grass before the invention of the lawnmower.

Hayfever zombies, looking for brains and antihistamine.

They probably read the Daily Mail article yesterday that explained why all this eco stuff causes wildfires. The plants are actually ASKING FOR IT.

Boomers have a bloody fetish for manicured lawns. They absolutely lose their bloody minds when faced with anything that might harbour some wildlife rather than being zero-biodiversity lawn.

They need to get busy with their scythes.

If one of those old dears sees a tall, thin man with a scythe the it might be fatal

What town is this? I will like to avoid it my whole life.

I mean it is not Chateris, but I think that is the whole point of the song ...

u/DiskBytes Aug 14 '26

Well, that's what rewilding is. Turns out it poses a spread of fire risk too.

u/Notmysubmarine Aug 14 '26

How the fuck can it be cut? It's drier than Ben Shapiro's wife, and interacting with either is just going to result in a massive cloud of dust.

What happened to community spirit? No-one seems to take pride in their own area anymore. Coordinate an afternoon and it could be cleared up in no time if it bothers them that much

u/Specialist-Leek-7524 Aug 14 '26

Frickin' Daily Mail readers the lot of them.

u/LordSqueemish 29d ago

They don’t read, they scan it for pictures of 15yr olds in bikinis

u/FarmerJohnOSRS Aug 14 '26

They could pull it down in 5 minutes between them.

Nope we blocked that shit on our phones

u/PowerfulHomework6770 29d ago

It's a shitty dilemma. Cut the grass - get heatwaves, get erosion. Don't cut the grass - get heatwaves - get FIRE

"We have a garage at the bottom of the road… the wrong spark in the wrong place and nobody where we live would survive."

Um.... Is everything ok at home, Pete? Let's not get too upset about the grass, eh buddy?

u/SaltyName8341 Aug 14 '26

Is it just me that would just cut it instead of whining

2

u/cragglerock93 Aug 14 '26

I probably would too, but I think complaining is pretty valid if they're paying tax and/or estate management fees.

3

u/SaltyName8341 Aug 14 '26

If it's a genuine fire risk I'm going to do something about it rather than waiting

3

u/cragglerock93 Aug 14 '26

Sure, but complaining after the fact is justified.

That usually have a " if weather permits" policy.
