My worst nightmare

I wish that I had a picture to help you understand my mortification I hate Marigolds they are a small flower (I use that word loosely) they should be called a weed. They are not pretty, they stink and I am not sure why anyone would plant it.
So you can imagine my mortification when I drove past a house in Clay Center and noticed that their entire front yard was completely full of Marigolds. Really? I can understand not wanting to mow your yard but Marigolds, plant your yard to rocks or musk thistle but Marigolds? I will now have nightmares...thank you!!
