humor
"Humor is what binds humans together and makes difficult times just a little less painful; Sometimes you can't help but laugh. "
Jason & Demarara #6
On one springtime Saturday, when mild sunshine had lured men into shorts and sunglasses, these men had roused their lawnmowers, hauled them from their garages and sheds and dragged them into the mild sunlight. For these machines, hibernation was over. The well-prepared owners of petrol mowers had long ago changed their oil, and had no reason to worry about the degraded remnants of fuel from September, nor did they have the need to prise away last summer’s grass detritus from the blades with screwdrivers. They had already oiled their mowers’ blades and had jerry cans of the requisite petrol to fuel their machines. They were soon on their way, vibrating the air with their motors, filling it with a pleasant tang of green leaf volatiles and petrol emissions. The electric boys were already mowing, but in a more nasal manner — even the well-spoken, cordless ones were all treble, no bass. Meghan Trainor hated them.
