Humor Would it be weird?

Post image

Don't really get leaves in our yard. Would it be weird to come back and get the leaves off of this? Not my house or neighborhood lol. Serious consideration. Actual question but flaring as humor because I'm probably being weird.

In my city locals collect leaves and put them in the council bags which the city council pick up for free.. I decided to dispose of them myself and some lady called the council on me for stealing .

Next time I saw a council man picking them up I asked if I could take them and he said "you're the man that crazy woman was talking about" and glad told me to take whatever I like

Just put on a hi-vis vest and some PPE, you look kinda official. Only thing to tip people off is the lack of a big commercial truck to put it all in.
