Question about organic waste.

Also supposed to be clippings, not ckippings; 'yare' is supposed to be 'yard.'

My eyes are killing me tonight.

On the yard. Always and forever. I leave the curb area spotless!

Re: Grass Clippings Poll

I blow then into our private road, & then blow them all the way across into the Farm's swale, since I mow that as well.

Does that make me a bad person ?

Only if you leave it there. It's dangerous for bicyclists and motorcyclists and illegal in many areas.

Not sure. How about wherever they go. Don't you have spellchecker on your computer or are you just illiterate or don't you bother to proof read what you type? Sure makes you look bad.....:confused2:

Yeah, I'm illiterate and don't bother to proofread (one word, dumbass), either. What's it to you? You don't appear to be so smart yourself, as in "How about wherever they go" like anybody who runs a mower can't figure that out--well, except you.

Put me on your ignore list and you'll never have to suffer through another one of my posts, because they "confuse" you.

Or, do us all a favor and keep your dumbass comments to yourself.

A lot of us type on our phones with fat fingers and are at the mercy of auto correct replacing what we are trying to type with nonsense. A 5 inch screen doesn't help much. So please just excuse spelling and typos.

Don't believe in ignore. I ignore enough idiots in real life don't need that on a forum as well.

Far as my comments go, too fricking bad. Put on your big boy pants and start proofreading your comments. It will make you 'appear' more adult like....:laughing:

From the get go, all your posts comments have been laced with mis spelled words. Must be your thing. Not mine.

I can't use that excuse, Darryl. In my case, it's failing eyesight. It's hard to correct what you can't or don't see. I suppose his smart *** answer to that would be to quit posting, which I may do if this place is going to get contaminated with people like that.

Whatever. I will say that what you post and how you execute your comments, tells the world about how you view yourself. This is a public forum which means anyone, anywhere can read it so when you post a comment with rank spelling, anyone that reads that post can form an opinion of you. Your lack of careful proof reading and spelling correction tells volumes about you and none of it is good either.

Glad you don't live next door to me. I bet you are a real quality person.

Let me tell you bud, I'm 70 myself and readers are 3 bucks for 3 pairs at Walmart so your excuse that you cannot see what you post is... well, BS. Display a little common sens and spell things right, especially an opening post line. Grass Ckipings...you have to be kidding me.

On topic please.. really wtf

Sorry Daryl, but I have to add one more post. SideCar, you need to chill out or get a life. I’ve got a BS & MS in education, plus four industrial certificates which allowed me to teach on Tech Schools. I have also attended over 100 update schools run by every major small engine manufacturer, plus many run by equipment manufacturers. After 34+ years of teaching and 50+ years of working on small engines, I have found that the most intelligent people are NOT the best spellers or readers. They know their fields and are able to communicate what they know in ways you would not appreciate. I have even worked with Autistic individuals who could probably repair a small engine better than you, but needed help writing down what they. Even with my education I still make mistakes and misspell words. Does that make me and my disabled friends dumbasses also. Even with my faults, members are able to understand what I am trying to communicate and have succeeded in getting the info they are looking for. In your 70+ years you should have learned that not everyone is not a Steven Hawkin. Wait, he couldn’t write and needed a computer to talk for him also. Must be a dumbass also. You can now ignore me, because I am an idiot.

Sorry double post, tried to edit, me bad.

Adding valuable content is what it's all about. Rivets is a valuable contributor here and deserves the.respect to not be trolled over spelling or gramitcal errors!

Here's my walk-behind mower mowing my back acreage before the leaves start coming down heavily. Sporting Gator G6 mulching blades.

Keep on the yard. I don't know of anyone who blows the clippings on to the street. I imagine it would be difficult to do once the clippings are on the lawn unless you bag them up while mowing and then dump them on the street. That would make a mess and make your neighbors angry.

I live in the boonies, the county road commission is supposed to keep the grass trimmed down both sides of the road, if I have to cut it because they don't I let it blow in the road, like all my neighbors do.

You can kill or maim a Motorcycle rider blowing grass in the street. Please stop doing that. Grass is like ice to a Motorcycle.

A few dry clippings is one thing because the first vehicle to go by blows most of them away. Filling the street or road with 4- or 6-inch-deep windrows of wet grass from property line to property line is simply ugly and lazy. Around here they get mashed down and then dry on the asphalt and are stuck there until we have a couple of gully washers to loosen them up a little.

I halfway expect to one day see these people throwing bags of kitchen trash out in the street.

It's 4 miles at 55 mph from our short deadend street to get to the main road and it's always the same people blowing their mess in the road and leaving it. Some of them are commercial cutters for the two subdivisions up near the main road. The bike riders try to go around it and so do the folks towing boats to or from the county boat landing on the James River.

Its just plain inconsiderate, karma would dictate someone you know having an accident braking on a clipping strewn road on a rainy day. If you blow them on, then blow them off.

Our city has an ordnance against blowing grass into the street or curb and gutter, interesting enough they just sent a copy of the ordinance with last months water/sewer bill. (someone must have not been following the rules) I have been told that too much grass clippings in the storm sewer is not a good thing.
