  1. You mowed me over with this one. I suffered from a lawnmower accident at 16, and have despised the chore ever since. When I retired I decided not to have a lawn, and instead made a large rock garden with flowers, shrubs, waterfalls, and ponds. Beyond that are pastures and trees. My biggest problem now is keeping the grass at bay, which is accomplished by a combination of weed blocker, mulch, hand weeding, grass trimmers, and horses. It's more irritating and slower than mowing, but I only have to do the manual labor a couple times, once in the spring and again in the summer. if only somebody would invent a weeding robot.

  2. Good grief, people are complaining that you speak the truth about history? I have a suggestion that might help soothe the sensitivities of the precious little snowflakes. Create an alternative history channel just for them that presents history the way they'd like it. Title it "The History Liar: History Deserves to Be Dismembered".

  3.  @Padraigp  If the experts are correct, your AI lawn care machines are more likely to be calculating where to plant you so they have some ornamental shade.

  4.  @Padraigp  They can't be made any wiser than their designers and operators, which is pretty low bar from what I've seen.
