Time for a dome
 
I think the developers are making more than enough money off of us that they should pay for a dome over all of TV and air-condition it.

I am trying to clean my car today and baby it's hot outside!

That's why God created early mornings.

Put request in the developers suggestion box will get done in no time.

Good thing it's a new week and we can open the voting for dumbest post of the week again:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

They will build a large cheese factory first to complement all the whine in The Villages

I would go for that. They could even make it an amenity and raise my fees $5/month. :icon_wink:There is an extremely narrow window during which I can water my container plants without burning my feet!

The developer of course. They control everything else

Do you all mean the OP wasn’t serious suggesting a dome for us here? I was going to volunteer to run the thermostat (a thankless job if there ever was one!). I am good at it and have lots of practice. 😁

Also the television show was THE DOME.

sallyg 07-19-2021 07:23 AM

Thanks. I needed that. 😁

Yes, it was a SciFi about an invisible dome that appeared over a town and the residents could not get out.

It is ironic that the people that are actually upset with the amount of money the developers make are here because of the money they made.

I have zero animosity towards those with astounding amounts of $$$$. They earned it...as did you...let it go because it sounds childish and hypocritical. Without them you would be stuck where you were.

I am with you, I answer every complaint about the amount of money the developers are making by saying I am all for it. I continue to support the developers making as much money as they can and want. They have created and maintained a fantastic Adult Resort, and I want it to continue to be successful.

This was a joke, it was only a joke, and was slightly tongue-in-cheek aim at those who complain about the developers making too much money.

Lighten up people. I think it’s a great idea! :a040:

Ummm, how do I put this delicately? I believe whoever (whomever?) would be chosen
to run the thermostat should be male. Were a female chosen, the thermostat may very well be set hotter than the outside temperature.

Some posters seem to have an over stimulated literal thinking gland!:icon_wink:

It is hard to tell online if someone is joking. My wife even has a hard time knowing when I am joking in person - LOL

Surely??

No way I'm letting a woman run the thermostat...

We'll all freeze (or roast) to death... :icon_wink::boxing2::icon_wink:

Never heard of that show... Go figure...

But there was another movie "Biosphere" starring Pauly Shore that was out 20-30 years ago...

Not if you buy one of those programmable ones, and don't tell her how to use it...

Not that I'd ever do such a thing... :1rotfl:

He was, at least I thought so, but you know, there are always a few children out there that say the stupidest things...it will never change....most of us just move to next post.

No, no no. When I wake up at 3AM, sweating and drenched, gasping for air, I know my wife messed with the thermostat again. Also in the 80's a study was done about what causes the most conflict in an office between the sexes (we had two back then). Answer was, of course, the temperature.
