I swear my upstairs neighbors have bowling balls where other people have feet.

Look, if you live somewhere that the sun makes you regret existence (read: everywhere in 10 years), yard work is getting done in the morning, car work is getting done in the evening.

I have neither a yard nor a car, what do I do on a Saturday

Ageroth ,

Drink

Kind of needs more context. 11 am is morning.

riding lawnmower comes screaming out of the garage at its max speed of 5 mph, the driver dual wielding leaf blowers

Just my cope after an absurdly noisy morning :) happy weekend, everyone.

AeroLemming ,

I was just woken up by a leaf blower again. I feel ya.

UlyssesT ,

Because a two-stroke engine that is more polluting than a full size SUV many times over making a lot of noise and releasing a lot of byproduct poisons into the air is vastly preferable to using a fucking rake. I think some boomers and junior boomers like the fact that they’re being noisy. grillman

Nu-Mad Max 3: Boomers doing the War Boyz “witness me” bit with riding lawnmowers, weed eaters, and mayonaise.

Moving blankets are a wonderful solution. Hang them over your windows and enjoy the quiet. Get thick ones. Uhaul has good ones.

Meanwhile, my wife keeps asking if it would be rude to mow the lawn at 7AM on a Saturday. With the electric mower.

prettybunnys ,

and you said yes, of course I can only hope.

cm0002 ,

Modern electric mowers are actually very quiet, they’re not your parents electric mower that’s for sure lol

Mine is so quiet not only do I not need to worry about ear protection, you can’t even hear it from inside my own house so def none of the neighbors will be able to hear it either lol

nevemsenki ,

To be fair, doing my work around the house after worktime at 7PM weekdays is also not going to be very popular.

I’ll take 8pm vacuuming over 8am vacuuming any day

Look how lucky you are. Mine desides 23:00 is the perfect time to start drilling.

Doing the lawn after dark seems so unwholesome. Which is annoying because I could use a 25° drop in temperature.

toynbee ,

What about flying a kite in the dark?

And depending on the size of your lot, maybe you could use a reel mower. They’re nearly silent!

You could also use a scythe, but that sounds like a lot more work.

Ahhhhhhhh country living is amazing. Not one neighbor.

bigkahuna1986 ,

My parents live in the country. They have one neighbor. He’s on meth so he likes to start chainsawing right around dark and continues until around 2am.

Perhapsjustsniffit ,

Yea well no neighbors is the only way to go.

someguy3 ,

What’d he do?

Leaf blowing for 2 straight hours when it’s still mid summer and there are no leaves on the ground.

thesporkeffect ,

It doesn’t excuse it, but sometimes you just gotta take drastic measures to drown out the intrusive thoughts… Or maybe covering up someone being tortured in the basement?

Is your neighbour dual-wielding lawnmowers?

blandfordforever ,

Don’t be ridiculous. He has a lawnmower in one hand and a chainsaw in the other.

Ash Williams moves to the suburbs

UlyssesT ,

Back in CA, there was a total grillman , appearance and all, that’d roll down the street in a golf cart with a massive sound system filling the entire rear behind his seat, and he’d blast out absolute trash dadrock with huge floor-shaking subwoofers, and do it all with this empty gammon grin behind his wrap-around polarized sunglasses, going back and forth at least twice a week around the same time.

He was still not as divorced as my-hero though.

9point6 ,

Depends on what time, for me

After about 10am is pretty fair game if a noisy job needs doing IMO. If it’s music and not obnoxiously loud, that’s probably fine too

Anyone making any noise before that though absolutely should get in the sea
