Thanks Buddy

So, my lawnmower broke and I decided to hire a local kid to mow my lawn instead of buying a new one. It was a great decision. For $30 a week, I get three hours of my life back. The problem was, I had a busted lawn mower. I didn't really know what to do with it, how the hell do you throw away a lawn mower?

But then last week Gus heard that I had a lawn guy and he asked what I did with my old mower. I told him it was just sitting in the garage, which was technically true; he never asked me if it actually worked. He offered to buy it from me, since he just moved into a new house. I said I wouldn't sell it to him, I would just give it to him -- because that's how nice I am. So long story short, I don't have to figure out how to throw away my broken lawnmower anymore.

Thanks, buddy.

I guess we'll be getting a journal from Gus about how some asshole gave him a broken lawnmower.

Just like Ironing boards you just never really get to it. You have no Iron but you still have the board for it

Awesome, now when he asks why you didn't tell him it doesn't work you get to use the classic "You never asked" line.

Gus will now turn it into a WMD and rule the planet with math, sarcasm and a lawnmower of death.

This could be the beginning of a hilarious chain of events. I'm hoping to hear more about this on the drunk tank.

How do you get rid of a lawnmower? Easy. You watch the olympics right? Well there's one event, I don't know the name cause I don't watch it. They get some kinda heavy ball thing on a rope, then they spin around and toss it. The lawnmower has a built in handle for exactly this purpose.
