    I love seeing all the people get mad that they can’t do this now that my local city has effectively banned visitors during flower season :)

    You can still see it from afar, but a bunch of people got mad because they drove over two counties to trample and crowd the flower fields for their own selfish desires only to find that the area has been blocked off completely to cars and people.

    Get fucked in the nicest way possible. Enjoy it from a distance like a normal person so everyone else can enjoy it and so the damn flowers can keep coming back each year.

    Only after reading the comments do I realise it’s about crushing flowers.

    I thought it was about how when you run through the tall grass with no shoes as a kid you can get effectively paper cuts between your toes haha.

    I internallly winced at seeing this photo picture remembering all the times as a kid

    Having your bare feet in the grass feels so goddamn good and I’m tired of pretending that it doesn’t feel great

      I disagree, but I’m allergic to grass. However, if you like it, there should be no reason to pretend you don’t.

      Hypothesis: the message seems to imply that the cliche nature lover needs to trample and destroy said nature to be close to it.

      This seems the most likely explanation to me.

      And I find it neither funny nor insightful.

      Edit: I can’t manage to copy paste usernames on mobile but please check out the refinement by the comment to this post. Highly valuable edition. Tldr of it: not “nature lovers” in general but social media invasive nature lovers.

        It’s not so much nature lovers but social media “content creators” who are criticized here.

        There was a case I read of a man caring for a beautiful patch of flowers, but then it got famous on social media and those assholes went there in buses, took pictures lying in there and destroyed it. Heartbreaking to read about that one. Sadly I can’t find that specific case anymore, but there are enough articles about the problem, like this one.

          Oh. That would explain the hashtags. I’ll edit my comment to point out yours!

          Thanks!

      I weirdly see a lot of these “yes…but…” Comics everywhere and I don’t get like 90% of them tbh.

      Few people understand why I glare them after obliterating a perfectly nice patch of flowers.

      And ants. I see all the crawling things on the grass/ground when I do yardwork at home, how much more in an open field.
