EXACTLY how fucking lazy can you be??

put some gloves on and go to town the trick is to make little piles and then come and scoop em up when yee done!
 Quoting: Q33


That's fine if you want to do it that way. The point is I shouldn't be banned from using one if I want to. There are plenty of jobs a leaf blower is far better at than a broom. It takes me 10 minutes to clean my barn floor with one. It would take all day doing it with a broom and still wouldn't look as good.

The Nazis are really making themselves know during this.

These same people saying ban leaf blowers are the ones calling people selfish for not doing what they want. Can you imagine the hypocrisy? Calling me selfish for not doing what you want me to. Wow.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74139312


very true

still looks like a weak little male though when you blow them instead of raking !
 Quoting: Q33


There are plenty of reasons why a leaf blower is better.

You must go by the motto work harder not smarter. Why would I bust my ass all day with a broom when I can do the same job in 10 min with a leaf blower? SO I look like more of a man? That's the most ridiculous shit I've ever heard.

I hate leaf blowers. Ban them! Noise pollution.
Had a neighbor who came out of his house every time a leaf dropped on his lawn. Had to use a leaf blower for a couple of leaves. He was a nuisance to the neighborhood. Thank God he moved. He ruined everyone else's weekend.

While it's generally true that people tend to use them where raking would actually be quicker and more efficient, nonetheless there are situations where that's not the case, some places rakes can't get, especially if you're cleaning around shrubs, etc. helps get out the leaves out of tight places.

Raking or blowing leaves puts a ton of particulates in the air anyway. Anybody with upper respiratory issues knows that.

I wonder how many nanoseconds it will take for all the busy body subdivision police start complaining about people's yards.

Sadly, you were correct. This is not the dumbest thing I've read today.

So if you have a barn in Sleepy Hollow NY, close the door, use the blower inside there. They won't even know you're doing it, because you're inside. And the ban probably only applies to lawns.

But outdoors, just mulch the leaves. Mow over them and in a week or two the grass will have grown up over it, and you've just added fertilizer into the soil. The blowing is just makework for the crews of illegals, not really necessary.

The Village of Sleepy Hollow is temporarily banning the use of leaf blowers to make sure residents are safe during the coronavirus pandemic.

Effective immediately, all leaf blower use is banned for the duration of the pandemic.

Village officials say since the virus is a respiratory condition, having things blown into the air could create a hazmat situation.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 507570


Every time I see someone using a leaf blower I want to blow their head off (which is why I don't own firearms). They kick up so much dust that asthmatics, and people without asthma, can have respiratory trama.

Plus they're noisy.

Get a rake fatty.

Doesn't seem unreasonable to me. They don't want you stirring up the virus and have it floating around in the air.

The virus is all over the ground which is why we should be taking our shoes off before we enter our homes.

And this week, village officials will ban the breeze and wind in their town.

Once enacted, expect totally calm conditions until the end of May in Sleepy Hollow.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76766133


North Tardytown, aka "Sleepy Fucking Hollow" is a retarded dump! The only good thing about them is their convenient location for NYC tards. It's overcrowded, expensive as hell, and fucked. It's just like all the other dumb river towns in NY.

They don't even have decent parking on the street. Houses are crammed wall to wall and they have idiot old people making up stupid laws just because they can. Their cops will give as many tickets as possible every day.

Of course, leaf blowers should be required to have no more than 30dbm of noise. Who wants to listen to their idiot neighbor making noise.
