Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[GonePlaid]

It's one of the main reasons I live in the country...generally just dont choose to see or hear other people. It's a GOF/curmudgeon thing. The only downside is no pizza delivery.

It's not delivery, It's Di Gior.....never mind.

I'm kinda with you at this point. I lived in Philadelphia, right in the city, for a decade. I loved it there. But right now, I'd so prefer to just never have to deal with anyone in my immediate vicinity, ever again. I'd so love it if no one ever got on my lawn in the first place.

It seems the only ones that get on my lawn are the &!^@%#$ fire ants.

I swear, the entire state of California sits atop one enormous ant colony. They're not fire ants, but they are everywhere and impossible to wipe out.

My dad had a foolproof way of eliminating unwanted bugs. The A-B block method: Place critter on block A, smash with block B.

Fact, I really do like DiGiornos pizza, especially the original Rising Crust Supreme. I dont eat it often because when I do, I usually the whole thing...bad for my weight.

Hmm, I'll hafta try one. Problem is, Domino's is 1/4 mile from me.

Theoretically, if something annoying is close enough for me to see or hear from my house, I'm legally allowed to either have it arrested or shoot it, not that I would.

Go ahead and try one...but I take no responsibility if you hate it. My tastes in food are really really unevolved.

After the storm. Groceries are closed tomorrow. Partly because of Labor Day.

I once lived in a building that had an ant infestation. They were everywhere.

A company was hired that installed treated foam strips behind the bricks. The ants and every other form of bug went away. I wonder what the long term effects of those chemicals will be.

They say that they do everything by hand. How is that digital free?

Nice to know that the old ways are still an alternative.

Philadelphia is an excellent city but it's important to know in Philly everything is Right Up Front. Even New Yorkers respect Phily.

The cops don’t do anything, neither does the school. Unless of course something happens to these children.

They go around in groups of fifty or so, singing drinking songs related to their frosh activities or whatever makes noise. Multiple groups at any time. They want everyone to know that they are there and groups are competing with one another to make their presence known. They won’t even move over on the sidewalk for people.

We’ve live around here for 45 years. It never used to be like this. It seems to get worse every year.

Our country has become a place where eveyone has rights to do whatever they want (and/or excuses are made for bad/illegal bahvior) except when it comes to those of us who are law abiding taxpayers (i.e. the bill payers).

People always do what they want anyway. There is, for example, no software pron filter ever made that will keep a teen from finding what they want to see.

I had the good sense not to click that link. Not that it might not have happened anyway. Oh, lordy, I can already hear it starting up in my head. Have to go listen to something else now to get rid of it.

It's now battling it out with George Benson's version of "This Masquerade," which has been in there non-stop since I played it with my jazz standards guy on Thursday. I'm doomed.

Here's another song to instantiate into your head. Foxes and Fossils have reformed and are working on releasing more material.
