"High Noon" is when the sun is at its zenith, if you mean 12PM local time then you just say "noon".

There's utility in pointing out that different people express love in different ways, but saying "now tag yourself on this complete list of all the ways" isn't so great.

A standard claw hammer makes a pretty great weeding tool. You can use it like a miniature mattock: swing it at the dirt to dig under a weed, loosening everything up so you can pull the weed out. Sure, sometimes you'll cut the root instead, but at least from my short test, it works great and is way easier than a trowel.

That's a lot of effort for most weeds, especially if you're weeding a larger area!

I'm comparing this to using a trowel to dig out the roots of a weed. If the weed's the type you can just yank out by the stems, then of course just do that! But you always want to get the roots if at all possible, otherwise the weed will be back in very short order.

I'm sure those tools work great, but I don't have them. I have a trowel (somewhere, in my moving boxes) and a claw hammer, and I wanted to do some weeding yesterday, and hey, the claw hammer works just fine!

I know it's not what you meant or what you did, but I'm picturing someone just absolutely pulverizing a dandelion with the regular end of a hammer like the ape with the thighbone at the start of 2001: A Space Odyssey, and it's making me giggle

Screw you, dandelion! gently caress you!

that flower had it coming to it, it knows what it did

At least he chose that version intentionally, instead of having it inflicted on him.
