Leave some for the fish… you dolt

I’m currently typing away on my balcony (yay working at home) which faces onto a laneway. In the laneway is a man who is trying to remove a bunch of dirt off the lane directly behind his house. The dirt is there because he’s building a garage and they just dumped a bunch of sand and gravel off. Some of which ended up on the lane. It’s kind of messy and I guess it bothers him to have that mess on a laneway that we all use.
For probably the last 45 minutes this moron has had his garden hose on full-blast trying to slowly erode away the dirt that was left on the lane. He could have easily shoveled and swept it up in about 5 minutes but no, no… it’s much easier to just stand in one spot and hold a hose instead. I think he’s totally screwed up the hydro-eco-balance in the city because it’s a lot cloudier now than when he started. There’s practically a major river running down the lane and all this twit has done is spread around the dirt. It’s a helluva a lot messier than when he started. Bravo, sir hose-a-lot!
And yes, even as I write this he’s still out there with the hose. I bet there’s a few ships stuck in English Bay thanks to him. ”Sacre bleu, Capitaine! Zis does not make sense… we were sitting in 50 feet of wateur only one hour ago. Mon dieu!”
