My dumbass old neighbour decided to mow his lawn...the wind knocked him over cause he's old...I actually went out to help him up (felt bad for a minute)...he started cursing the greens for convincing people climate change is real.

Stay well old mate. Stay well.

Lol... old mate uses a two-stroke no doubt. That is so damn close to the meme where the dude on the bike shoves a stick into his spokes and sends himself flying only to blame someone is.

It's about 20 years old and louder than fucking tractor. He'll also keep it running while he walks away from it (the warm start is absolutely cooked on it). I'm tempted to sneak out and turn it off when he does it, so he spends 30 minutes swearing while it cools down.
