people who don't rake their [expletive] yards

At a place me and some buddies used to rent we had so many damn trees it was ridiculous.

Every fall we would throw a leaf raking party were we would get a couple kegs and get drunk and rake.

When you have 8-10 guys doing it, you knock it out in no time. We would literally have 30-40 recycle bags full of leaves.

We had to do it a year or two w/ just 3 of us and it was miserable. It was normally a weekend project.

Craftsman yard vac. Like a lawnmower with a vacuum that shreds the leaves.

And it has a chipper shredder!!

I don't rake either, but I do set the mower extra low and mulch what is in my yard. Also makes the yard look nice when it snows...

remember when they used to let you burn the leaves - Q-Town was cloaked in acrid smoke.

Yep. A sure sign of fall.

We still burn leaves in some places.

I've got one and it's the best purchase I have ever made. I've got sweet gum trees and it also sucks up and chops up those spikey balls.

Guilty. I don't have a rake.... or a lawnmower that works. [expletive] it.

I tend to my 10 x 12 piece of greenery religiously: seed, edge, mow weekly, rake, aerate, etc.. The leaves get chopped up and put on the vegetable patch in back as mulch/fertilizer for next spring. The neighbors on the block call me the Lawn Nazi.

Every penny counts in these trying times, omaha. Besides, I have one small tree.

I don't see much of a point unless you're looking for free mulch (then it makes perfect sense). Sure, grass needs sunlight, but decomposing leaves give nutrients to the grass to IIRC.
