“Obviously the new hybrid astro turf that actually grows.”
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Actually this era is such a combination of technological brilliance and everyday stupidity that it would not surprise me much if someone were to actually invent a plastic turf that would somehow grow in length and promote it as being a wonderful new invention, “Now, at last, you can have the fun of mowing your artificial turf as if it were real grass.” Of course they would develop a totally new mower that only costs twenty thousand dollars to use to mow it but what the hey.

Mowing the plastic grass Americans just won't mow.

Saw a sign, it said “Need Help? Call Jesus! (213) ###-1234”

Feeling particularly desperate, I decided to call.

A guy showed up at my house, with a lawn mower ;)

Kind of breath taking, the stupidity of it all.

Who would entrust a school district like that to actually educate their children.

My thought as well, except that I’m not sure if they could start the mower.

Maybe they used goats instead.
