Came here to check if there was a Pratchett quote.
(Reaper Man if anyone's curious)
The 'small caps' really gave it away to me but I wasn't familiar with which book - thank you! The Death books were always very humanizing in an interesting way, His scenes were always my favourite.
mowing lawns in texas makes you 1) anticipate death as a routine part of the job and 2) on the long days wish for it's release.
I always wondered why nobody has invented a roomba that was a lawn mower. You set up the lawn boundries, and it just zips around once every two weeks cutting your grass.
And then you just sit inside and watch your beer, while drinking a tv.
Autonomous lawn mowers (lawn mower robots) are a thing for about ten years now over here in Germany. I see them everywhere, just silently and slowly rolling around and mowing around the clock.
They are also very efficient in killing hedge hogs and frogs and the likes - humans pushing a lawn mower trend to keep such animals alive whereas the robots simply shred them. They have no device to detect small animals and nobody cares to implement any which says a lot about humankind.
I understand how frogs would get caught up in it.....but you'd think hedgehogs would run away before it gets them.
Turns out they can't. It really happens often.
For the same reason robot mops haven't gotten to be viable in a commercial environment: human slaves are still cheaper than robots.
What? Robot mops exist.....I bought one for my sister like 10 years ago.
So do autonomous lawnmowers, just neither got as popular as Roombas.
"I'm here to kill n00bs!"
Oh God right in the nostalgia. I need to start playing Project 1999 again...
I loved EQ back in the day, but I just can't deal with the clunkiness any more. Especially since I don't have time to do more than solo nowadays.
A skilled scythe user can be very handy in the really tall stuff.
grim reaper is a total bro.
Yes. Manny Calivera is definately a grim reaper I'd hang out with.
Then when we're done, I'll take you on a super-cool trip... to hell, how does that sound? We have donuts.
Heaving a scythe relief :)
I suppose there would be a death of grass
