Everywhere I am there is a guy running a leaf blower. At my house, leaf blowers everywhere all day long. At work, of course, leaf blowers blowing dirt and allergens into the air. It’s such a special noise, it goes through walls and headphones so effectively. They are the most pervasive, annoying things on the planet. I hate them more than mosquitoes.

      As much as I would love if you guys did that, practically guaranteed you’d all be fucked in some way because “rules for thee not for me”

      Can’t be having filthy peasants disturbing the very hard working politicians and local rich people 🙄

      God I hate how the world works.

        Precisely.

        They promised complete privacy hedges when they announced the park.

        They put in 7 immature trees along a half mile of fenceline.

        Neighbors have been calling cops non stop about the illegal activity at night. They showed up once to harass the neighbors and ignore the people in the park.

        It’s all been a big ol fuck you to the homeowners.

        Edit: And for the record, I’m not even a homeowner.

        I can’t afford a home to own.

        My neighbors all own.

        I rent.

        So I’m cut off at the knees when it comes to actually approaching the city.

          “It’s a big club and you ain’t in it”

          That sucks, I hope things get better for you and your neighbors, even if I doubt it, sadly.
