That's hilarious. I've been a landscaper for eight years and I see this all of the time when we show up. It's like middle class boomers get reminded that appearances count for quite a bit and they feel the need to compete and come out as soon as we start up on the weekends. It's a bit cringe worthy honestly Glad your Dad did this. I would shake that man's hand and have a beer with him lol

Guilty as charged.😄

Ima try this and see 🤣

So thats why whenever i start mowing the lawn i hear a symphony of lawn mowers like 1 hour afterwards

That’s hilarious because I also do this. I have one neighbor who will mow his yard everyday if he thinks I’m mowing it. Most of the time I’m just moving my mower in or out of the shed.

I'd say just burn it but.. recent history and all.

@@stevejackson9952 usually we just wait for the next drought to kill the lawn again

@@spamviking Oh I don't care about the lawn, burn the snakes.

Are the brown snakes venomous? I'm just a curious Floridian. Basically the closest thing to an Australian from what I'm told

@@chupacabraracing181 Wicked!!!! Actually I think everything in Australia is trying to kill you.

🤣SAME

True..

Also the $3 sniff of gas LOL

@@woodworkerroyer8497 I'd have liked those kinda cheap thrills but my broke ass was out here tryna survive the pandemic. $3 is like 200 bucks in my currency lmao

I'd move.... or burn their house down... I have options.

This was by far the funniest part of the whole video.

I can relate to that. I'm poor af, but that i can relate to XD

If it's Californian hippies you might want to wait a bit before putting it on the market.

Don't forget the stripes in the lawn, on an angle, and the distinct use of an edger for the gap between the lawn and the curb or any other cement. 😁😭

My neighbor does that and no animal will walk across or fly over her yard.

@@mirrorblue100 Yep, might as well pave the whole yard. It’s a lifeless desert.

I’m from a state and hood where the ultra manicured lawn is the norm. Hate it. Looks awful. No balance and incredibly unnatural

@@PrimeReal MY neighborhood is BIG and it goes from people who run sprinklers daily and have a lawn service cut and a chem truck pull up monthly and spray. To the guy that can barely keep his lawn cut often enough to keep the HOA off his tail. Saw a lawn the other day that if it weren't for crabgrass they'd have no grass. Mine is above average but I still get weeds and clover and that's ok as long as it's green I'm good.

One a month guy checking in. Our direct neighbor is the twice a day guy. Three doors down are the hippies with more weeds than grass in their lawn.

@@moeharri What kind of "weeds" though? They be capitalists not hippies if its the profitable kind of weeds, or more likely capitalist hippies.

@@jakegarrett8109 dandelions and other garbage weeds. Definitely anti-capitalists.

@@moeharri Ah, I thought it might have been one of the states that legalized certain weeds, which would make sense for a hippie and somewhat ironic if they sold it.

i am the mow once a month guy, the lawn was beyond dead when i moved in 2 years ago and has been replaced with clover lol

Cuts with scissors

He's busy with his yard right now... Check back in a bit.

Myles is such a legend in his own mind. (At least he is when he's not hungover or depressed in some way.)

Please see: "1. Basic [Master] Dad"

Ya!

He's hiding behind the garage with a 30 o' Bush-latte

We planted clover (both white and red) as our intentional “weed” groundcover. 1. Stays short: no need to mow 2. Adds nitrogen to the soil 3. Resilient/hardy 4. Soft enough to walk on Very happy with the result 😊

@@goosebump801 Not to mention drought resistant. When it gets dry, all the people who keep their lawns nice have an ugly brown patch around their house and the lazy people who let the weeds take over have green in their yards. I have always wondered why people don't just raise weeds. Plantain is another hardy ground cover that is also useful for sores and insect bites.

@@goosebump801 my current problem is maintaining enough water coverage to get all the seed to germinate. its very drought tolerant once established but it needs to be damp for like.. 3-5 days minimum to get it to sprout reliably

so now i have just been watering in sections, a week at a time

@@greyeaglem plantains as ground covers? Do you mean their roots going along the ground? Sorry, I'm rather confused since they're basically big herbs a few metres high lol

Yes I believe it is 💪😅2:44

Ha so it is!! thought the old man said he was outta the will now his cutting his grass 🤣

@@Doc_in_the_carpet_truck : I'm guessing that, in reality, that was filmed at his dad and mom's house. I wonder if Charlie's Dad regularly mows his grass cuz Charlie is one of 12 kids - mosr of them younger (can't remember if Charlie's the oldest). Don't know if any kids are still around at home enough for mowing to be their job, not dad's - or if Dad mowing the grass was out of the ordinary and just for this video. 😁

😂🤣😂

If you live in a place where Code Enforcement punishes you for your property and it isn't an EPA violation, you're in the wrong place.

What about the guy who mows the yard and finds a car? There is one of those in my neighborhood. We obviously have no HOA and code-enforcement is always out on other calls.

@@DJTheMetalheadMercenary conservatism for you lol

@@Isaac-ho8gh Independent for me ;) or did you mean conservation instead lol

@@DJTheMetalheadMercenary no, I mean conservative since that's culturally a conservative thing. The idea of forcing people to have cut grass lawns is an elitist thing from the 1600s for monarchs to impress others. After them using lawns, they then made their civvies also do it. If you mean your local leaders being in an independent party or not being in a party, they can be still be at least slightly conservative since someone's ideology is obviously separate from party.

You betcha!

same

Buffalo grass!

That sounds pretty awesome :D I don't have a green thumb so I'm always in awe of people who do xD wish you the best in tradeschool!

I grew up in an apartment, so everything is new to me! I live on a farm now and I looooove to mow, garden and weed. I wish I knew this earlier when I was like 30+ years younger. Best to you going to tradeschool! It's great to find a career you love, trust me!

Lmfao u act like it wss a long time bruh that's 5 years😂🤦‍♂️ join the military then do that shit

@Double R Yah, 5 out of my 20 years. I suck at keeping interest in things and I become lazy. 5 years is a long time for me to stay committed to one thing.

That's so cool man, finding a thing that you just enjoy doing and looking after. Hope you're doing well. also, tell the folks I said hi.

Fair enough since the idea of grass lawns is elitist in the first place lol Clover lawns are much better.

@Disabled-Megatron I thought about replacing it with sand , so I never have to touch a mower again.

AGREED, and that goes for raking up leaves too, I have never liked that sport.👎

Yeah, no kidding. Don't do anything outdoors barefoot. It's brutal out there!

My neighbor is like this, but his feet are so callused and hobbit-like that I’m pretty sure the mower blades would break before his toes.

Is it the “Ughhhh this blowssss” line?? 😂😂😂

What about the ex-landscaper who has 3 weedeaters. One for edging, one for the front, one for the back, a 48 standup with gator blades, a backpack blower and sprayer, pallet of mulch in the garage and like 4 old push mowers he refuses to get rid of

Dude, that's cool and all, just either 1) watch your toes, or 2) have a blow out bag nearby. If you don't know what 2 is, then 3) enlist in the military 😁

@@MJA5 do not enlist in the military it sucks lol

@@glovesflared I don't know, I did it for 20 years 😀

@@MJA5 - Neat thing about pushies, the blades stop when you stop. Nearly impossible to get your toes in the blades in that scenario. With that said, I usually wear beach shoes when cutting the lawn. It only takes 10 minutes.

I’m the hippy with a pushy too, but I can’t do barefoot!

excellent motivation there, good job, good effort. Good talk.

Can confirm, I'm in WI and I say that to my wife every month when I go out and mow. Never gets old!

No, your dad was just brilliant.

I definitely would have complained a lot less as a kid/teenager if I didn't have to be out there pushing the mower in the hot sun and got to drive it instead. You've got lucky kids!

you can't fake that kind of excitement

@Your Nightmares Come True I tried, and there are taller weeds that pop up in it unfortunately.

i asked my husband if we could keep the clover in the back and he could have the grass in the front......the clover is winning The Dry Spell Award for staying green!! Plus we have more bees and butterflies now! YAY He's fine with that too! Good for you Nebulana!

Well its possible to remove your grass covers and then get more clover seeds from their flowers! It'll still likely work if you have clay soil even lol
