Actual quote from the mean old lady in the garden next to us: "Someone needs to teach you how to use a hoe. You never had a garden before, did you?" Seriously, she said this to me today. Her reasoning was that I was pulling weeds by hand, which clearly implies that I don't yet know how to use a hoe and have never had a garden. I tried to explain that the bean plants were too closely tangled with the weeds to use a hoe, but she just said that was our own fault for letting it go so long. She said, "Aren't there a bunch of you? Why didn't somebody take care of it sooner?" Also, she said our beans look "pretty pathetic."
I almost whacked her in the head with my hoe.
