Seasonal Yard Decorations

Why Seasonal Yard Decorations Might Be the Funniest Part of Your Week

Seasonal yard decorations are how suburbanites say “I’m festive and slightly unhinged.” One minute it’s autumnal gourds; the next, your neighbor’s inflatable Santa is wrestling a reindeer in the front yard. Skeletons stay up until Easter. A 12-foot Home Depot ghost becomes a permanent resident. Someone syncs Christmas lights to dubstep and creates a traffic jam. You try to outdo the house across the street and end up zip-tying a snowman to your mailbox. Kids cheer. HOA frowns. Seasonal yard decorations: lawn-based one-upmanship, chaotic cheer, and pure outdoor comedy gold.
