Backseat mowers are the worst

Ernie is thinking seriously about removing the bag from the mower.

Do you see a hedge? I don’t.

This how all lawn mowers received a kill switch squeeze handle. Some idiot actually tried to trim a hedge with the lawn mower over his head.

I see Cynthis is running her mouth again. 2 seconds more and he is gonna gun that thing.

Where’s the fun in that? ☺

Silly question. He is waiting for Dennis’ Memorial Day Sale to buy one.

Albert is a little rough around the hedges.

Sage advice, indeed…………

Because that would make sense.

Good morning Balladeers!

Mildred wonders if she should also suggest the purchase of a nose-and-ear trimmer — or just leave him to his current devices.

Fellow Balladeers,please please dont try this at home. At least he didnt lift it over his head. Someone actually did that and it went… badly

That’s a silly question Cynthia.. a manly man, needs a challenge. This is the very thing that gets extra points down at the Ballard St Men only Club.

Too dangerous to be funny. Anything that requires you to tilt the mower and expose the blades is begging for injury.

Get a goat. :)

Better hedge your bet on this one, Martha.

A trimmer or an edger, get the “H” outta there.

At least he isn’t carrying an idling chain saw on his shoulder.

He tried a push mower but we all know how that went.
