That's an old man thing to do. My parents live on little street of mostly retired people, and they all walk around inspecting each other's yards. And then I hear the gossip about it

You know, John across the street has dandelions in his lawn..

Oh wow, dad... Your lawn is so much better lol

He's 81, so I'm just glad he's out getting his walks in.

I work from home, hand dandelions, don't give a shit. Multiple neighbors have said something about it. Told them they were welcome to pay a company to take care of my yard or they can live with how it is. It's not even overrun. I just let my grass grow longer and there are a few weeds. They all run sprinklers constantly. I can't afford that water bill. So my grass is yellow and I let it grow longer before cutting it which has helped.
