Default weeds?

Yes. There is weed killer which will not kill the grass. Walmart has the
best prices. Read the labels on the weed killers and get the one which says
it will not kill grass. Then just go around and spray the weeds. It works!

Also this ****es off the enviro-wackos. So you can get rid of weeds and
tick off the enviro-wackos at the same time!


Or, of course, one could weed properly, assisted by a carrot-digging tool
(sometimes called a "weed-poper," looks a bit like a wood chisle); a
"transplant knife" or "angle weeder" (it has a blunt angle-iron type blade
& grabs dandelion roots or burdock or taprooted thistles right out of the
ground); or a "dibble" (somewhat auger-like), & seasonally overseed so the
grass outcompetes the weeds. This would NOT be so as to **** off
anti-enviroment felons, but performed out of an actual affection for one's
yard as well as for the environment, & a desire to keep the lawn safe &
healthy for one's self, kids, & pets. You know, done for love, not for
hate? Odd idea, huh? Can always tell when someone already knows he doing
wrong when he's admitting he actually doesn't give a darn & only does it
to annoy people!
