Oooohhh noooo, not mint!! How can I ever live with a yard of short, lush, green, plants that smell nice when I cut them, keep pests away, and give me an endless supply of ingredients for drinks and desserts? It's going to cover up all my regular grass that I can't do shit with and benefits no one!

If it only replaced regular grass, it would be fine. Problem is, it'll choke everything in its path, including parsley and roses aaand I hope you won't miss that chamomile patch, because it's now mint.

I'm thinking I let some clover run wild because the hoa board will shit their non-hoa approved shit receptacles.
