Today, I thought I would surprise my dad by mowing our entire 2 acre lawn. When he got home, instead of being grateful like I had hoped, he yelled at me for cutting in vertical lines instead of horizontal. FML

For being ungrateful, you should punish him by mowing a giant penis into the yard,,, or if you want to be really mean,, you could make that original penis, label it "average", and then mow in a comparably small one and label it "Dad/his actual name" (by labeling, I mean you mow the words average and dad/his actual name below the respective penises) and then take a picture of both from the roof of your house and send them to all his know acquaintances (from an anonymous email address) and then mow the areas around them to hide your handiword

There really a difference to whether it is cut vertical or horizontal?

WTF? It's just a ******* slab of dirt with stupid green shit growing on it. Who gives a shit what way it's cut as long as it gets cut?

Your dad's an asshole. You should mow that on the law next time. "ASSHOLE" complete with diagrams.

OTH...Thank you so much for mowing the lawn. It looks great! And nobody even had to ask you to do it. You're a great kid, even though you have a dad who apparently is too wound up in his own crap to see that you did a good thing. You're the best! :-)

Tell him that you did him a favor. Mowing a lawns different ways each time will actually make it healthier.

YDI, it's pretty obvious to mow a lawn in horizontal lines.

Simple answer is to use weed killer to give your pedantic father back his stripes in his preferred direction. Although having said that, I did concur with the suggestion of the respondent (#6) suggesting a giant penis, this could be achieved by sowing a different grass alongside the existing grass. No matter what daddy does he will always have that gift that keeps giving (short of digging the whole **** up and re-turfing). Also, remember Google earth is your friend!! :)
