1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This isn't an advice forum
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

That’s your problem, they’re designed for people who want to waste time on their lawn and drink a beer. People who want to get it done with have zero turn mowers.
Sodium silicate in the oil. Bleach in the gas. An iron spike driven into the ground just below the height of the grass.
But really the best way to deal with it is to get over it. I know sometimes it’s hard to get over an irritating sound, but it helps your mental health if you don’t get angry about something minor and entirely outside your control
I can deal with someone like that.
The problem is it’s his daughter’s lawn. And as the dad of lady-presenting people I empathize with him to an extent.
He’s not mowing f his lawn. He’s taking care of his kid.
So I’m looking for a way to let him know his kid is safe without it barely inconveniencing me.
Get out your push mower, take off that shirt... Have someone subtly play Hustlin' by Rick Ross in the background and get to work
Well obviously you need to set up a conspiracy cult agains the Big Lawnmower and get the lady to join!
