How about we have all gotten soft. My grandfather and great grandfather built their own homes including digging the cellars by hand and using hand tools. The men my father brought over drinking when they had parties were all tough as nails and a friendly fistfight was not uncommon then seeing them over the next night and all it forgotten. Hell no one shovels snow hardly and besides our family everyone has self propelled or riding mowers, I push it all summer no matter how hot it gets. Most gardeners don't use shovels to make the garden and instead a rototiller. It's all toys now to do everything. Hell some even use paint sprayers instead of a brush like I end up using. Big peeve of mine, people just drop their trash on the ground with the trash can 4 ft away, to fucking lazy even to look for one and if they see it to ignore it because someone else will pick it up for them.
