Pick up? I don't even rake them!

We have a blanketing layer of leaves on our lawn and as soon as we get a dry autumn day, we mow over the lawn and then mow over it again and there's just little bits of confetti leaves all over the lawn that will either blow away or shrivel up in a week or so. Every pass we make they get smaller and smaller until we wonder why people actually rake leaves.

We have a plush green lawn too, so our method works just fine.

Edit: Oh, good, someone else does what I do LOL:

I run the mower over them and leave them. Makes great mulch.

I'm sorry, but the word you are looking for is "polite".
I apologize if I offended you.

Not sure what you are pointing out. I was joking with DKS in his response about Canadians being practical by not doing anything with their leaves.
