Mow the words "Fuck you" into their yard.

I was thinking about offering to mow her yard for free as the biggest fuck you of all.

 How is that?


Best way to hit someone is in their pocketbook as far as I'm concerned.

I assume this is the lawn service my neighbor uses and I must have drifted slightly into her adjoining yard like a foot while mowing.  The same ones that showed up at nearly 9 PM last night and woke my daughter up.  I opted to be a nice guy and not say anything, but I think I will now.

I've been trying to find a guy who understood that the lowest setting on the lawn mower while using a dull blade makes St. Augustine look like shit.



And this one understands so well he calls you out on it for fucking up someone elses lawn.

WTF?

I just moved from 1600 acres.
My new house backs up to a ranch.
A guy rang my doorbell earlier and told me he was here for the rattlesnake.

I had just finished mowing so I was like WTF?
He had the wrong address.


Eta. 4" and above is for summer.
3" is good to scalp at the beginning of the season.

4-4.5" is ideal for Fescue.  Keeps the grass healthier and more drought resistant, as well as shades out some weeds.

It's a lawn crew that cuts her yard.  That's why I think it'd be funny to just offer to cut her yard for free so they lose the business.  I have a 33" walk behind and it would take me like 10 extra mins.

3" is too short for St. Augustine, especially here where clover, bermuda, rye, and trash can get in your lawn with a quickness. I "lost" my lawn a year ago. Finally had to scalp it late this winter and it's coming back slowly. Such a pain in the ass and I don't know what to do to help it along.

The healthiest lawns in my neighborhood are 4-6".

A "how to fuck with your neighbor" thread within a "who has reading comprehension skills" thread embedded in a "is it trespassing or not" thread rolled up in a "you don't know what you are doing, let me tell you how it's done" thread sprinkled with misused quotation marks and suspicion of a transsexual author, six pages seems like a minimum.
