First, I have lived here over 5 years and have not encountered drunks at the town squares. I go to either Lake Sumter Landing or Spanish Springs at least once a week. It is a great way to spend a little time and to socialize - yes, with a drink - and with other Villagers.

Second, the OP had said in his/her first post that the "drunk" neighbor was not a nice person but later said he/she would be with the "drunk" in his garage while the "drunk" drank an 18 pack of beer in an hour. Sound completely fabricated to me.

What? Would you please further explain these statements?

Let me guess: he's equating the developer with God and the further plan for us is to drink ourselves to death?

I think he was trying to be funny.

Thank you CFrance for the clarification. I have to admit, I began typing before I put brain in gear!

Maybe the OP can talk his neighbor into going on a plant based diet?

Personally I wouldn't worry until he pooped in my front yard and tried to put a Milton Berle statue in his.

I think most alcohol is made from grain. That probably makes it plant based, so I think he's good !

Even though not made from grain, vodka will also work - plant based as well.

And gin! Don't forget juniper berries.
