Crazy white liberal woman.
How would you like to have this nut job for your nextdoor neighbor
Need to add CWLM to the LGBT moniker.
Underlying principal: “Having nice things” as such, is racist.
Rush said something many years ago that an average-sized lawn produced enough oxygen to supply the needs of a family of four for a year. Just rememberd that little bit from Rush.
“Crazy white liberal woman.”
You left out :ignorant.” I’ll just put this here and hope maybe the ignorant Tok Tikker can benefit:

In hot places with poor soil, like Florida, white people had swept yards, too.
See, unlike the rich, privileged white Tok Tikkers of today, nobody had air conditioned houses. The simplest way to have a slightly cooler house was shade trees, as many and as dense as possible. You know what doesn’t grow in deep shade? The lawn grasses of the 1950s. So no one was likely to have a thick, grass lawn, except rich estates. Note the article says weeds got swept away, too.
Oh, and there were virtually no rural public water systems. Everybody had a well. Some had cumbersome pumps, some had well buckets. Danged few people would have a water sprinkler for a grass lawn. Swept yards are dry yards.
There are more articles about swept yards. She should look them up. That’s not all she should do, but that’s for starters. Yeah, I’m a cranky old guy who lived in the South in the 1950s.
I thought they were called AWFLs.
