^^haha! Seed your lawn. SEED IT!! or Feed your lawn. FEED IT!!
You can look into Killex or Round-Up but those are quite toxic IIRC and will destroy grass too. There are kinds that only kill weeds and are safe for lawns.

speaking of vacuums, anyone remember the Kirby vacuums which were sold door to door? our family bought one and holy shit that thing was built like a tank - lasted us 15 yrs+!

I still remember the days of lugging that thing up and down the stairs vacuuming.. :lol:
Sucks like Nintendo Kirby (in a good way). Powerful vacs. Never noticed this thread till now.

Should start VLS++ club for those at 60, lol.

Re: Dyson - When our old vacuum crapped out 10 years ago, my parents bought a refurb'd original Dyson (DC03?) off Amazon a decade ago before they sold them in Canada. Still using it to this day. OG Dyson hipsters right hurr.

Re: Groceries, I look at flyers every Sunday to decide which supermarkets to hit up. I also have memorized roughly the price trends of stuff I usually buy so I stock up when it's on sale. Best deals this week, PriceSmart Richmond has chicken legs on sale $1.59/lb and IGA has Kale for 99c each.

You know you're a VLS+ member when you appreciate the simple things in life, like a stranger's baby smiling at you.

- sadly apartment life has swallowed me... We used to grow just about everything in our backyard. Cucumber, Zucchini, tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage, blueberry and strawberry, CORN (which was the bestest) i could go on. We had a prickle bush in the far corner that was a weed, but it produced blackberries so it earned its keep. But then i planted a mint leaf plant (for aroma and herbal tea) and it grew out of control little shop of horrors style. Took years to finally remove it all.

Strangers baby's smiling and staring at u is super cute. Though my personal favourite is when I see 90+ year old couples walking down the street and they still hold each others hand.

Yes, that's right. I think it's a liability thing. I just pull them out by hand and hopefully drag the root out too. Works fine almost all the time and actually quite satisfying. I'm all like "Fuck you weeds, die MF'er" as I'm ripping them out. LOL! It feels good.

For me, it feels good until I look up, then it's :fuuuuu:. I think I pulled a few buckets of weeds this past weekend, probably another 100 buckets left to go. :heckno:

I, personally, prefer the tiger torch approach. A tiny torch would work but it would be more time consuming. It takes 2-3 hits to kill the weeds roots completely but it's quick and completely natural.
