Older Americans also be like "You should get a job"

Then when you offer to cut their grass or clean their house to earn money, they're like "I have a robot lawnmower and a robot vacuum cleaner, I don't need your services"

Good God.. I'd love for some help with the yard work. There is no lawn whatsoever so mowing is out but the wild roses and the bittersweet is consuming the back yard something fierce. It's like gonna eat any animals that pass by consuming.

Got a house full of other apartment tenants who always say, "I'll help!" yet never do. Shit, they don't even put their recycling and garbage from the porch to the curb.. I have to.

FML.

Southeast Mississippi here, if you happen to be somewhere within sensible driving distance, I'd be glad to help.

Oh God bless you! Alas, I'm on the gloriously small coast of New Hampshire. Thanks though!

Was hoping to get a few hours in tonight but got into a long rambling conversation with the kid that lives upstairs and it's gotten dark. Ack!

Maybe tomorrow if I can manage to get my butt out of bed early enough I can be done with my work before the weather rolls in. Rain expected for the next few days. Not going to complain too hard about it though. We sorely need it.

Could see if any farmers in the area would let you borrow a goat (though i dont know how feasible that is wherever you live), they would probably absolutely destroy those

LOL! They probably would! Ahh, I'm just going to give it hell with the snippers and clippers.

they also don't know how to use the robot lawnmower and robot vacuum cleaner

not even because "hurr hurr boomers don't know how to use tech" but because these fucking domestic robots break after a few months to try to get you to pay for repairs and/or a brand new one

Those older Amerikkklans can fuck off into the sun. I'm coming up on a year and a half out of work.
