I was push mowing my yard with headphones on a while back with a very small window of time before my son's bus. A car pulled up, rolled down their window and started talking to me. I made eye contact and then continued mowing just as I was. They acted pissed at being ignored and drove away. Some may think this is rude behavior on my part. But from my perspective, it's rude and entitled to expect a complete stranger to stop what they are doing to tend to whatever you want. People aren’t background characters to your story. Now get off my lawn!
