What’s your point? If you live in TV you should know what it means.

Garywt 04-06-2023 03:45 PM

I guess it is none of the above.

a/k/a Pointless.

It is interesting with all those definitions listed, not one applies to the definition of MMP's here in The Villages.

Velvet 04-06-2023 07:03 PM

Of course they don’t mean the same thing as here in TV - we simply use an acronym specific to our location.

How civil of you to actually answer the poster respectfully ! Really tells something about our community to see people making such immature remarks like, if you LIVE here, you should know. I often wonder what that kind of thing does for the person making such an arrogant comment...those who do that must get some kind of internal reward, who knows ? Maybe it was meant to make the person who asked fell "dumb", "stupid" ? So easy to just reply like you did, make a friend, not tear down another "just because" it's anonymous !

Thank you and well said, Don't know why people feel the need to ridicule others for asking a simple questions.

Goldwingnut 04-07-2023 06:04 AM

Funny thing is, I never thought of how many TLAs (three letter acronyms) there were for mmp, at first I thought the OP must have been confusing it with some new medical condition that was advertising their new drug on TV. Then I read it again and realized it was an honest question and not trolling.

Sadly, we have lost a lot of civility with the gains in digital courage.

ohioshooter 04-07-2023 07:47 AM

The OP has been here for four years, he knows what it means.

Yes, likely does know what it means here. But, I took is as a topic for conversation. Acronyms are often used in articles, but never explained. Therefore persons reading said articles may be at a loss if they are not familiar with the subject or context. People who use acronyms without first explaining the meaning run the risk of being misunderstood.

Of course the OP knew what MMP means. And of course they started the thread as a fun topic of conversation...

And of course someone came along just to chastise anyone who dared use that fun topic of conversation to make a joke...

Very well said Mix! Easier to make friends… we learn something everyday…

It is mostly men here who criticize people's questions. They do this because of frustration caused by their small- um, their little, um, their tiny Egos.

How do you measure um, "egos"? Have you personally measured a lot of, ah, "egos" here? Standard or metric? Do you take into account the effect of temperature or interest in various types of inducement?

Not a surprise it's connected to ego. Sad part is, when you meet new people and the conversation turns to "social media" for villagers (some ask if there is a specific FB page for residents), I've found some who say, "oh yes, we did find the Talk of the Villages site and a lot of people seem to just have inside jokes and make fun of new people who ask questions". I always try to explain to log in for awhile, that there are some truly caring, helpful, people, with great information !

NotGolfer 04-08-2023 05:24 AM

Notice the OP doesn't come back again to say thank you.

I feel his pain. NEVER dictate anything into your smart phone and hit enter before you read it. It’s like “a box of chocolates”. You never know what your gonna get.

…..but not actually a “golf course” cart path which is actually reserved for carts used to carry active (mostly) golfers. Shouldn’t be seeing a string of bike “cruisers” there.

They must be new to this "interwebs" thing...

Anyone, who has EVER been on ANY internet forum, knows that there are regulars, inside jokes and that some people make fun of "newbies"...

This type of comment is nasty and stupid. It makes “Talk of the villages” a lot less enjoyable to read. Unfortunately you’re not alone with wise a— comments.

Keep in mind, when a man comes out of a swimming pool, his "ego" is deflated.
