    Oh? Why don't you just share it with us? PS: I never claimed my BAC was above or below yours.

    I remember the last time I did meth. It was probably 13-14 years ago.

    The time before that, I'm like 19 and there's this hot, blonde trucker chick who's wild AF, seriously. And she gave me and my friend each a pack of "crank". And then that's the last we saw of her.
    I did see and feel her titties.

    Anyway. That crank is serious. I stayed up for like 3 days and ate nothing but a chicken leg and a piece of bread and washed it down with Mountain Dew.

    We played "Top Gear" and "Rampart" the whole time.

    She came around, gave us like $60 worth of meth and never was seen again. She was pretty hot, too.

    They are enormous health hazards that only morons condone the use of.

    Ban Leafblowers!

    Leafblowers literally scour the earth: stripping off topsoil, desiccating roots, and killing vital soil-dwelling organisms, while, at the same time, propelling into the air clouds of dirt, dust and dangerous contaminants: volatile compounds, mold and fungal spores, weed seeds, insect eggs, pollen, molecules of the myriads of toxic chemicals people spray and sprinkle on their gardens, trees, and lawns, not to mention bird and rodent feces, and more.

    Thanks to decades of relentless lobbying by their manufacturers, the two-cylinder engines that drive leafblowers have never been regulated by any Federal or State agency. The engines, as a result, are crude, cheap, and inefficient, as well as harmful to the environment and everything living in it. Because they are designed to be air-cooled, the engines release 100% of their tailgate emissions directly into the environment, and since they also burn fuel very inefficiently, a leafblower running for one hour emits as many hydrocarbons and other pollutants into the atmosphere as a car driven at 55 mph for 110 miles.

    It goes without saying (but must be said anyway), that leafblowers pose the greatest threat to the health and hearing of the untold numbers of landscape workers who use them on a daily basis, in most cases without adequate protective equipment, for intervals that far exceed OSHA guidelines. Unfortunately, the workers themselves tend to exaggerate the benefits and deny the risks of blowing leaves with machines, which they strongly favor over rakes, for reasons that probably have more to do with symbolism than practicality.

    Ironically, leafblowers were not invented to blow leaves; they were originally designed as crop dusters. In other words, they didn’t come about in response to a genuine need for a mechanized solution to the leaf-removal problem. Because there wasn’t any problem. Now we do have a problem, but it isn’t leaves, it’s these infernal machines.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    First off, where are there any 2 cylinder leaf blowers? They'd be too heavy.
    Symbolism? WTF? You think people use them for gratification? Appeasement?
    Practicality? They are far more practical than a lawn rake, and do a better job.

    I don't use my leaf blower for leaves (I use a mulching mower) but I do use it to
    clean my sidewalk, blow dirt etc. out of my garage and off my driveway. Also to
    blow the grass off of my tractor before I wipe it down. It also works great to blow
    light snow off my sidewalks, driveway and car. I won't go without one!
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Good thing CA. doesn't get much snow, snow blowers use small gas engines and I just can't see those libturds using a snow shovel.

    You think this is not common? Well, I get into those situations all the time doing electrical work. I'm replacing the service on a house. Bring the portable generator for recharging battery tools, powering the house in the interim, etc. That's my 5.5 kw generator. It gets the job done and it has about 8 hours on a tank of gasoline. Solar isn't going to cut it. That's like 20 typical home panels and they only work while the sun shines.

    The idiots in charge in California once again have not thought through what they're doing. The Left fucks up everything they touch, and this is one more proof of it.
    I bet people much smarter than you have thought about this and will provide exceptions. dildo.
