Addendum.

"Would you look at that?", the armpit hair tree removal guy said to the others, pointing to a small tree by the newly built fence at the edge of the yard.

It turns out that my landlord hadn't planned right for the new fence, and instead of removing a slat or putting a shorter slat in so the tree trunk could stay where it was, he sanded down into it like an inch or two, and so he left this huge smooth shaved gouge going down into the trunk of the tree, and then he went and put a normal fence slat right there where sanding down the tree had freed up the room.

"I've never seen that before," the armpit hair tree removal guy was like. "I wonder what he used to do that," he then added, meaning the sanding or whatever.

They all then agreed that the tree would really show that it took a hit next year, and it wouldn't last too long after that.

"That one's gonna end up in your neighbor's yard," one of them was like.
