Lawns are a passion hate of mine. I bought a house and land package that has lawn front and back and it's the most useless waste of land. I'd rather the house be further forward with a bigger shed in the back yard but instead there a plant that require constant cutting/watering. My ex was the one who wanted to keep it and now that she's gone I'll look at landscaping the yard to rocks and native flora.
As a space behind your house where kids can run about and play, that is safer and nicer to look at than a concrete or bare-earth yard, then I totally support it, particularly if you're in a climate where they don't need much help. As a big pointless expanse to look at and not use for anything, or in parts of the world where keeping the lawn requires massive effort and expense and continual watering, it's a huge waste. And if you're going to have a lawn, at least put some flowerbeds around with pollinator-friendly plants.
My garden has a lawn, because I have a toddler. It also has deep borders stuffed with plants, and at this time of year you can't go half a minute without seeing a bee or a butterfly or something. Also, in this part of the world I don't have to do much to keep it looking good, besides mowing it and chucking a bit of seed on the occasional worn spot.
Sod is expensive right now. These are clearly fresh patches of sod laid down which is why you can see they're in a pre-cut grid. Someone who needed some sod stole their sod.
Lawns were a mistake

What's the status of that project? That's a lot of work but way nicer than lawns once finished
try wooden mulch, it does wonders in drier climates.

Give me moss or wood chips.. or mossy wood chips.
You: "Touch Grass"
You, later: "Not like that"
That's some sad looking gras
It looks like sod that didn't really take.
FTFY
Agreed. Maybe if you tell the grass a joke you might be able to cheer it up.
This is Spezs fault somehow
Spez needed to touch gras so he stole some.
The grass would probably spontaneously combust from his body odor before he has the chance to touch it
Always is
Fuck /u/spez
Should plant something more wild and ecological anyways 😔
r/NoLaw- oh wait
@MagsIFellFor
No to lawns! Yes to native plants!
They're just taking it inside so they can touch grass from home.
Those gangs are literally stealing turf!
Is this really MILDLY infuriating…
Mildly infuriating probably because it's not their own grass
Fair point
My guess, the reverse is true - people fixing the lawn
Perhaps an equine-deficient, bean-abstainer was in need of a lift, and well you know how that old saying goes...
Where is this?!
I think I remember it being Brazil based on this post on another site
I saw some blocky cows go by that way
I expected as much, Minecraft cows did it.
Pretty sure it was the Minecraft Sheep - cows don't eat grass in Minecraft
Can they please come steal my grass?
/Nolawns
Really weird. I can't imagine there's a practical reason for this. Or maybe people are trying to steal pieces of lawn to grow their own?

Sprinkle it with glitter, the herpes of the craft world
It's always greener...
Jack and Jill ar it again?
Probably a couple local gangs having a turf war. I’ll see myself out….. :)
