    If you live in the suburbs, during the fall, you can’t have a peaceful weekend because there will always be at least one person using a leaf blower nearby. And they’re loud and bad for the environment.

      Where I live, gas ones are illegal but that doesn’t stop all the leaf blowers choking the air with gas fumes. I literally have to turn on an air purifier to get rid of the smell.

      Granted my apartment isn’t exactly a commercial workspace, but nothing is more infuriating than having to close all the doors/windows to my apartment when I’m in the middle of some huge programming problem. It instantly breaks apart the 10 things going on in my mental queue.
