You know, they have a machine for that... I'm doing some yard projects currently, and every time I mention it with a fat around, they feel the need to jump in and mock me for doing it all by hand. Digging post holes by hand?? You know, you could just rent an auger for the day, it takes all the effort out of it. Digging larger holes? Why not pay some mouth breather to show up with a tractor of some sort and do it for me? Hand sawing wood--are you crazy? Just get a sawzall or a chop saw and save yourself toms of effort. I swear the same mindset goes for everything, from rotating tires--why jack it up in my driveway and do it myself, when I can spend twice as long driving to and sitting at a mechanics shop and have someone else do it for me?--shoveling snow (which I can do by hand in less time than my fat neighbor can with his snowblower), mowing (pay a service or get a riding mower), whatever. But the one thing they all do it jump into a conversation, just so they can blow hard about how you're doing it the foolish way, when there's another person or machine that can do all the work for you. I always tell them I don't mind the work, and it burns a lot of calories, so it's a good workout, and that typically shuts them up for awhile.
