Sheesh, you need to larn to speak gooder!!

Don't feel bad. I was walking the aisles of a grocery store searching for pecans & could not find them. Saw an older, male store employee stocking milk in the dairy section so decided to ask for assistance. Walked up to him, while glancing around and said "excuse me. Where are your nuts? " and as he gasped, I saw what I was looking for & said, "nevermind, I see them." & walked to an endcap, grabbed a bag & left. Didn't hit me till I got to the register what I had said. I still wonder 30 years later how he told that story.

Never sweat the little stuff

Emglish is difficult...

And how IS the mower’s sense of self? ?

And did he go into depth with you over how the mower is making great strides, with regard to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, or at least until it felt your invasive line of questioning begin to erode its hard-fought sense of esteem?

Don't be embarrassed. We haven't done enough research yet for that repair guy to be able to speak intelligently about the psyches of lawnmowers. He wouldn't have been able to answer the question anyway.

I feel so lame that I haven't learned to speak Emglish yet--lol.

Lol
