Everywhere I am there is a guy running a leaf blower. At my house, leaf blowers everywhere all day long. At work, of course, leaf blowers blowing dirt and allergens into the air. It’s such a special noise, it goes through walls and headphones so effectively. They are the most pervasive, annoying things on the planet. I hate them more than mosquitoes.
Doesn’t need to be. Europe says hello! I’ve got a chap close by with a massive stone “garden” who blows leaves on a daily basis. Town will come by playing ghost busters too, thank $deity not too often in spring and summer though.
