Occasionally we'll get solicitors despite the no solicitor sign.
I also like to play chicken with the city & let my lawn go as long as I can before I have to mow it.
It's the first dry day in a week. I'm outside, deciding now's a good time to water the plants after a guy who's clearly with a lawn service is walking away because I took too long to answer the door. A different guy pushing a lawn mower down the street walks by and asks me if I want my lawn mowed.
I look down at my lawn. The edging hasn't been done. There's a big square in the middle of unmowed lawn that doesn't grow as fast, so it's still below regulation.
I look up at him and with a straight face go "no thanks my lawn looks great."
He gives me the most confused look, pauses and finally says "Really?"
