Things I Sincerely Wish Had Never Been Invented


  • Diesel powered leaf blowers

  • Whipper snippers

  • Come to think of it, any kind of mechanised garden equipment at all.


This post brought to you by my autistic brain in near-meltdown mode, and the two different sets of neighbours who are gardening at present with mechanical assistance.

Argh!

Yeah, I'd be VERY happy if people had to get a permit for garden powertools - that you had to get a letter from your Dr saying that arthritis/pain prevented you from doing it by hand.

Ablebodied? No garden powertools for you!

WORD.

My neighborhood was named leafmore.

Not leafblower more.

Every day, at all hours, SOMEONE has one of those blasted things going.

And that's why headphones/earbuds and soothing music were invented. It's the only thing that makes the noise bearable (add trains 300m away every 15 minutes and highway noise 200m away here as well)...

I feel your pain :(
