My peeve ~ leaf blowers

Not Neve · Nov 17, 2003

Is it just me or do you find it really annoying when people blow leaves off of their portion of the sidewalk and over to the neighbors? I was just thinking this today as I watched someone do it in front of a business. It would be one thing if they were blowing them into a pile and then putting them in a bag but no, they just blow them into the street or on the next person's portion of the sidewalk. It just make more work for somebody else and totally says "i'm too good for this". Besides, I kind of like fallen leaves.

Can you tell this bugs me?

I hate leaf blowers too. They're noisy and horrible. Get a damn rake, people! Or a leaf vacuum, that would make more sense to suck them up instead of blowing them around... does anyone make something like that?
