So I've been seeing these Sears commercials with these guys fantasizing about yard equipment like its their dream to cut grass and do manual labor. Really? The one I saw was a couple in a grocery store and the woman is supposedly buying stuff for their coming baby and the guy is pushing the cart but he sees the cart as a lawn mower.

So its our male fantasy to cut grass and do yard work? Really?

Oh yeah. I fantasize all the time about push mowing a couple of acres here in the Florida summer all the time. Nothing gives me pleasure like the thought of manual labor in 90+ temps and 90% humidity.
You may sleep soundly at night because rough men stand ready to visit violence upon those who seek to harm you.

Heaven forbid that they try to sell a product on the basis that somehow it actually saves you time and labor.  Instead, they think they'll just trick the customer into loving his own laborious burdens.

Strangely enough.
My youngest son loves to cut grass and do mechanic work too.
He helps me do maintenance on everything.

When he was 2 & half I nicked named him "Mr Fix it" after he took his training wheels off his bike.
 I told him to let me put them back on before things got lost, he demanded "Go! I fick it!"
And to my surprise, he did fik it.


He pushes me to cut grass before the grass needs it.
Yesterday he said lets go cut grass.
I normally do most of the weed eating and edging while he mows.
aprox. 1 acre with a few bad slopes..

I told him I don't feel well. My health has been bad for months now.
So he did it all.  And loved every moment.
I even had to tell him it's time to put the weed eater up now.
I think he would have been doing it til dark:30..

He is turning 14 this Sunday.

It's a real blessing to have a son like this. He is the best thing ever and my bestest friend even.


My first son had to be forced to do anything and he still complains about working for a living.
His Mum spoiled him rotten.

That's a very sweet story and I can empathize with how happy and proud it makes you. Good for both of you.

I actually like jumping on my riding mower to the point I do a couple of neighbor's yards most of the time too. Compared to the home, it is nice and peaceful, no real stress and relaxing.

They go to a focus group comprised mostly of women, or they do telephone canvassing and end up talking to the ones most likely to jaw with them ... women. Women now dominate the field of advertising and have for quite a while now.

I've seen a TV ad the other day (I don't have a TV): they were selling some shampoo for women and the pitch was "weightless oils" and there was this honey-colored goo dripping upwards on the screen. They can't even keep their bullshit consistent...

They lack humor but you know women will laugh at the stupidity
