Because acting like a rich, privileged white boy douche just isn’t enough for him anymore, he has to own land to prove it once and for all.

Solar powered lawnmower…you can spell that “g o a t”

I clicked on the solar powered lawn thingy posted by Corey. Seems like a fine idea. However I have a kinda big lawn that takes me an hour to mow. That thing runs for 20-30 minutes between 4-6 hour charges. So a one hour chore is turned into potentially a 2 day project to save the pint of gasoline my lawn mower uses. If I fill the gas tank it’ll last me three weeks. No thanks. I guess I just don’t care about the environment enough.

Don’t forget the tons of chemical fertilizer to keep all that grass green

So, someone was going to turn the golf course into a plae where people could live. I would assume there was a market for those apartments. Now there won’t be any apartments. I guess the people who would’ve lived there, will have to find somewhere else to live. I guess the workers who would have been employed in turning the golf course to apartment buildings will have to find work elsewhere. I guess the maintenance staff of the proposed apartment building will have to find other jobs. But that’s all okay, all those people will have one more space to try and put a tiny white ball into a tiny hole eighteen times.

JT probably does not realize – more likely bothered to find out – that golf courses are one of the least environmentally friendly uses of land out there.
