Riots in The Villages
 

The rioting in major cities across the U.S. has spread to The Villages, Florida. Looters in Florida’s friendliest hometown have especially broken into stores that sell items like laxatives, vitamins, hearing aids, reading glasses, energy drinks and surgical stockings.

The thugs were easily caught and arrested since they were using their walkers and golf carts to flee. The protests have been limited to the evening hours because most of the lawbreakers either had doctor’s appointments during the day or rioting would have interfered with their naps.

The marches didn’t last that long because many of the demonstrators had to get home to pee. In many cases, the demonstrators simply forgot why they were even there. Officials considered a curfew starting at 9 p.m. But since that’s the time when most of the residents go to bed anyway, it was decided that it wasn’t needed.

Community leaders concluded that part of the problem was that residents were restless because they had too much time on their hands since the recreation centers, pools, theaters, boutique stores and especially the bars were closed due to the coronavirus.

Community officials wanted to form a committee to look further into the problem, but no one would volunteer due to social distancing concerns.

We have been very bored staying at home and would love a distraction. Could we please give us 24 hours notice before the next riot so we can make plans to attend.

Pretty funny thread.

Reminds me of Mark Twain.

Now that is hillarious.

As a prospective buyer, I'd rather see live entertainment and dancing on the squares. Rioting and looting just doesn't do it for me.

Aw... I think OP’s post is funny. I wouldn’t worry if I were a prospective buyer, OP is tongue in cheek.

I hope that the rioters were wearing masks.

Thanks for the laugh jrn5656, it's nice to read a thread that is on the lighter side, all good : )

I saw that. Many "Old Lives Matter" signs. Things are getting out of hand.

Not funny

au contraire as the French would say

I vote for funny. People need to untwist their knickers once in awhile..

The OP was just having a little creative fun. :)

To the contrary, very funny.

funny

Don't get your panties in a wad.

c'mon, it is funny & appropos

So funny. Thank you, we need something to laugh

[QUOTE=Gulfcoast;1794090]As a new buyer, I'd rather see live entertainment and dancing too!

even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while & she found you ! ;-) there may be another but i'm guessing the avg's fairly low compared to the statistics outside the 'bubble'

we JUST found our house & will be there in 30d - i'm the reluctant party & bride is chomping at the bit,,, many walkers waved while we were driving around but it all remains to be seen

We attended that rally!!!
 

We were at that rally!! No, my wife just told me we were not there. She said we should have been there since we are out of denture cream, toilet paper, and Tylenol. Please hold rally around 4 so I can finish my golf game go to the pool, get a nap in, have a vodka and tonic on my lanai, watch my grass grow, and take a bike ride. Please also make sure it is done by 6:00 so I can make my regular stop to the bathroom to unload, watch the nightly news, read, and be in bed by 9:30.

Wonderful😄

Thank you so much RJN found your post quite clever and yes very funny. A much needed distraction during these chaotic times.

Gulfcoast.....not to worry, it was all in jest, and we will welcome you as a new neighbor with open arms. WELCOME NEIGHBOR!

And please don’t make it during the afternoon - too hot to get out.

very clever! you must have an excellent sense of humor ~!

I saw this headline and it scared the **** out of me, We purchased a house in February and have not moved yet because of all the social unrest and of course covid. I couldn't wait to show my wife because I knew she would go nuts (which she did), great fun way to start the morning lol :bigbow:

Funny

Thanks for the laugh. I needed that.

I thank the OP s for the funny commentary on the Village riots. I agree that we are losing our sense of humor when something like this gets a negative response. Keep it up - the laughs are good for the soul.

We need more humor like this. Lighten up and enjoy.😂😂

I believe the TV 'rioters' were also socially distancing and left thank you notes to the stores.

Nicely written.

Thanks for something light.

Hello Bob and Cheri,
And I thought they would have gone for the Viagara. Regards, Gary and Lois

Enjoyed that! Thanks for sharing.

Hysterical. Thanks for the post.

Thank you for bringing humor to my day
