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

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.

I weirdly see a lot of these "yes...but..." Comics everywhere and I don't get like 90% of them tbh.

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.

having your bare feet on the ground generally feels way better, with the exception of dark surfaces in the summer and, like, any outdoor surface in the winter.

Even the most miserable jagged gravel can sorta start feeling nice when you've taken some years to build up thicker soles, then it becomes like those spike mats people lay on.

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

Somewhere in TX?

All the people killing the Bluebonnets, trampling them for photo ops, or even dangerously stopping in breakdown lanes on the freeway to access Bluebonnets in the median for more pics.
