00:00Ah, Chicagoland.

00:03With its tight-knit, walkable neighborhoods, this is my native habitat, where the front

00:08lawns are about the size of your front room, give or take.

00:12If you want to slaughter the most grandiose of lawns, you've got to venture out into

00:16the suburbs.

00:17Okay, buddy.

00:18I don't know.

00:19Okay, buddy.

00:20Drive like somebody who would drive one of these trucks.

00:24I guess it's against my gentle nature.

00:28Look at this f***ing office park, son.

00:31Yeah, we're entering the zone now.

00:33This was always a f***ing landscape of bleakness here, man.

00:38We finally reach this woodsy enclave in the outer ring of suburban Chicago.

00:43So Willowbrook, I think it was an unincorporated town for a while.

00:46You'll notice there's no sidewalks here.

00:49Yeah, this should all be prairie.

00:51Look at all these f***ing lawns.

00:52Look at this.

00:53It's like a damn golf course.

00:54This looks like it'd be a pain in the ass to mow, man.

00:57That'd be a nice lawn to kill.

00:59Look at it.

01:00How big that thing is.

01:01That thing's enormous, man.

01:03F***ing gigantic.

01:04It's huge.

01:05This is unreal.

01:06Come on, guys.

01:07Try harder.

01:08Just, you can do better.

01:09Just do better.

01:10You know, I'm really disappointed.

01:12This is a nice neighborhood until somebody calls the cops on you.

01:16I don't see anybody with a f***ing native plant lawn.

01:19No, I don't think that's going on out here.

01:24I don't think so.
