Lawns are one of the stupidest things Americans obsess about.
There is no mention of lawns in the post. Is this maybe supposed to be a response in one of the comment threads?
What time is polite on the ‘weekend’?
10am and later, I think
noon.
Look, if you live somewhere that the sun makes you regret existence (read: everywhere in 10 years), yard work is getting done in the morning, car work is getting done in the evening.
I have neither a yard nor a car, what do I do on a Saturday
Drink
Meanwhile, my wife keeps asking if it would be rude to mow the lawn at 7AM on a Saturday. With the electric mower.
and you said yes, of course I can only hope.
Modern electric mowers are actually very quiet, they’re not your parents electric mower that’s for sure lol
Mine is so quiet not only do I not need to worry about ear protection, you can’t even hear it from inside my own house so def none of the neighbors will be able to hear it either lol
What lawn mower do you have that is that quiet??? I have a Ryobi electric push mower that I bought last year and while it’s way quieter than a gas mower I would feel incredibly rude using it early in the morning.
And noise is different depending on time of day. Ambient noise is a lot lower in off-hours, so your mower would sound louder than it does during the day.
Kind of needs more context. 11 am is morning.
There’s no time of day I should be able to hear your music in my own home with all doors and windows closed.
Car or house work noise tho? I’m cool.
I can hear people have a normal conversation on the street from inside my house. The walls are thin enough to let in and out all sound, but thick enough to keep in the heat in winter.

That means you’re all going to be quiet and mindful of us third-shifters, right?
…Right?Moving blankets are a wonderful solution. Hang them over your windows and enjoy the quiet. Get thick ones. Uhaul has good ones.
My neighbors consistently party until about five in the morning with outdoor speakers on the weekends. I’m generally up for the day before they’re done with last night, and I get to enjoy free concerts from their sound system.
You’re God damned right I’ve zero qualms about firing up the lawn mower as soon as the sun breaks the eastern horizon.
We have neighbours a couple houses down that occasionally like to have people over in their loud echo-ey metal fence+patio back yard and chop their firepit wood every hour or so when they run out, sometimes well after midnight. I do not think they realise how far that sound carries through the night and dont have the foresight to chop during the afternoon beforehand.
Ive often contemplated replacing the muffler on my rider with one designed for a passenger car
Look how lucky you are. Mine desides 23:00 is the perfect time to start drilling.
I swear my upstairs neighbors have bowling balls where other people have feet.
To be fair, doing my work around the house after worktime at 7PM weekdays is also not going to be very popular.
I’ll take 8pm vacuuming over 8am vacuuming any day
White noise machine, y’all. Makes life so much better. Sleep whenever you want.
My neighbor used a leaf blower to dry his car after washing it at 7am on a Saturday. I don’t know that I will ever be able to like that man after this.
Oh my.
A chamois is going to give a MUCH better finish, is silent and costs pocket change.
