Why does my lawn tractor always break when I have knee surgery pending....took me 3 days to mow the lawn with the push mower and I'm pretty sure walking will not be an option tomorrow
Real men have lawn mowers, not "lawn tractors", which
aren't tractors at all...they're the soccer mom mini-vans
of the grass cutting world.
You don't want....

You do want a professional grass cutting machine....

It's much more money, but it's worth it.

I'd settle for an oxyacetylene kit and stick with my walk behind mower. Its just grass and doesn't need a flipping glory machine.

I was bored in a hotel room i in Atlanta, turned on TV which was showing a re-run of Taggart (a 1980 detective series based in Glasgow). English speaking with a strong Glasgow accent. It had subtitles. In english.

No subs, can you follow the dialogue?
I can follow it but I have to concentrate

I play tug of war with Murphy a lot. I am quite the graceful klutz, and have kicked Murphy in the shin to occasionally win.
And, ultimately, Murphy bows to the pessimist who finds things didn't take as long, weren't as hard, and other than a few minor hiccups everything went smoothly.
And he still manages to sometimes run in with a pie to the face.
Amd then, when possible, it's mutiny and Murphy gets hanged.

Keith David made for an awesome Spawn.
I'm surprised no one has demanded an apology or cancellation of Cleveland Brown due to him being voiced by a white guy.

Well, a few things..... I don't live on the flat lands...have a few hills in my yard that to mow properly ,that thing would flip over...also, it would not fit between the trees I have...again... I don't live on the plains........also... I need a bagging system....but the main thing here Einstein is I have bad knees, and spending 1.5 hours, standing on that, my knees would not be working...and my hips would not be all to happy either....that is something engineers, retirees and geeks think is really cool because they spend most of their time sitting on their backside so they think standing is exercise.....so no, that monstrous piece of garbage would do me no good at all in the foothills of the Adirondacks....

One reason I use a stand-on type mower is because
of hills I mow. I can shift my weight far better than one
of those silly sit-upon mowers.
....also, it would not fit between the trees I have...again... I don't live on the plains....
Stand-on mowers allow one to easily duck
under low branches, which I have aplenty.
....also... I need a bagging system...
No one should bag clippings.
Leave'm where they fall to fertilize.
But most of all, this requires the least effort.
Good for lazy Scots & bears.

So you're too decrepit to use one, eh.
And so you use a motorized wheelchair with
a mower deck underneath.

They cost 4x as much as a riding mower, and they have zero turning radius! Why pay more for less?

I've heard some people use sheep instead of lawn mowers.

Mentos-Sheep-03-1140x760.jpg
Sheep aren't very useful for mowing.
Why, you ask?
The reel mowers (like the one in your pic) they use
cannot cope with any grass or weeds that get above
6" or so...the tall stuff just gets bent over.
So sheep are only useful on golf courses, which are
cut often & never have any unevenness. Lame, eh.
