dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Leave them leaves alone, fireflies overwinter there bug-facts

And there is my justification to not rake up any of the leaves at my place comfy-cool besides just pissing off grillman which is always a valid reason in and of itself

They aren't overwintering on my driveway (also no fireflies in my part of the country). That's why I use an electric plug-in mulcher to suck up all the dead leaves and put them on my beds.

we have gardeners/groundskeepers that come weekly (our block of flats has a load of posh cunts that actually OWN their properties) and every year they religiously blow the leaves off of all the grass in the estate that no one ever sits on or uses apart from maybe twice in the summer. All of said leaves then mulch down on the paths and roads making them slippery, which rocks when it's uphill to leave said estate.

And since I rent, I don't get an invite to the AGM to point out how stupid this is.

very cool!

God this is so me, or just a fucking broom! Takes two seconds!

I used to live in an apartment complex that was circular, and had a courtyard in the middle of the circle. The mandatory renter's maintenance payments contributed towards a man with a leaf blower visiting weekly, around this time of year. They'd spend at least an hour each time, blowing what few leaves were there, with all the noise being amplified by an impromptu soundhole. Idiot boys with their idiot toys.

Raking hurts my hands. Also there's electric leaf blowers

Leaves belong on your lawn. Stop being a bourgeois loser who cares how your grass looks.

Leaves go all over the place. They get all over your patio and stuff
