2. What a bunch of bastards
I hate Scotts' and won't buy a freaking thing they sell. A few months ago, a salesweasel for their lawn-care service arm tried to bully my wife into signing a ridonkulously expensive "lawn renovation and treatment program". He tried to convince her that our daughter would be a social outcast because of our brown lawn, and that I didn't love her enough to take better care of the lawn myself. Never mind that my lawn looks like ass because we here in Georgia are currently in an utterly EPIC drought, and I, unlike my idiot neighbors, refuse to disobey the watering restrictions we're currently under.

Fortunately, my wife is a Bronx girl and has one of the finest and well-honed bullshit detectors of anyone I've ever met. She called this asshat on his bullshit and told him to go to hell ;-)
