They must play for games and you must take your turn quickly. They get angry if your winning they get angry if you make a mistake? I find a lot come here and turn even fun activities into a job or work? We love it here and will love it here much more as we find our own pace and groove but must say most here seem to always be in a hurry? Even when you go to the grocery story they check you out so fast as if it's a contest when there is no one behind you in line. LOL Maybe people have their schedules too full? For us we want to enjoy this amazing place and the last thing we want is to find ways to be cranky and always rushing everywhere. We have met tons of nice people but you can't live anywhere that there is not the "queen bee" mentality clicky feel. It takes awhile to find people of like mind. It cost nothing to be kind! Being rude over a card game or any activity is pretty selfish people have to learn a lot here about so many things.

I believe that I know exactly what you are talking about . Yes there are folks who live here who bring that culture down here with them and lord it over everyone else .
For many years of my career I had to commute , work and live among them and I vowed that I would avoid them as much as possible in retirement .
When I can see their ;license plates which indicate where they are from I give them a very wide berth !
Thanks for having the courage to bring this issue up . I have seen an increase in folks from that part of the world over the five years that I have been here and an increase in pushy rude behavior and the same for driving habits associated with the same folks .
