What is arms race?
A term used to describe the proliferation of backyard play items in a post COVID world- starts with swing sets and basketball hoops. Then come soccer/lacrosse nets and a zip line. As all sides of the neighborhood fence add these items, one neighbor gets the trampoline (aka Mormon Babysitter). Then trampolines everywhere. Winter comes? Backyard skating rinks. The sides build their arsenals until balance is restored. A rink for every kid.
Then the goddamn Smiths at the end of the cul-de-sac get the sports court and the race is BACK ON.
Hey Ned, did you see the Sniths got a new sports court once we all had trampolines? Now my shitty kids are whining again. I guess the backyard arms race is back on.
