    I’ll never understand how people think their ugly ass lawns look good. Overgrown landscape are so much better looking.

      There’s a lot of small towns and cities that really embrace the natural landscape.

      It’s a shame that all the new towns start by slapping down a disgusting piece of lawn. Makes the whole place look cheap and old fashion.

        Those really confuse me to be honest, I thought you were the land of the free, why aren’t you allowed a bench in your garden?

      If it’s utilitarian then it’s fine. Anything that requires a level field like with sports or other activities. For just looking at, it’s awful.
