True ! I confess I have a bit of dread each "winter" as the traffic multiplies and the crowding increases, but then, it was no different when not yet retired and living in south Florida. 95 ??? Total nightmare in general, in "bird" season, a daunting task to just get to work on time no matter if you started before sunrise ! Price we pay for living in this beautiful state..... We get a little frustrated every season, but also nice to see friends from the "far north"...LOL !

Any other predictions?

hummmm ... maybe the percentage of broken "gates" and a corresponding rise in amenity fees to repair them ? No idea which, if permanent residents or air B&B and snowbird people hit them more, but the damage seems to never diminish ! ?

True, and what would have happened had there been no push-back or counter indicators concerning the prolific use of inferior Corning shingles that impacted so many, and the inferior sheet rock, and many other occurrences that were not exposed by a balance of power and agendas (POA & HOA have vastly different agendas). Its a micro view of what our founding father's knew, regardless of which "side" of an issue one is one, the most important element is to always have different entities, at least two political parties, two home owner organizations, always choices, what ever, exclusivity is always a dangerous path to dictatorship ! !

Don't freak out. Difference in opinions are still allowed. Let's hope it stays that way.

Of course they are. As long as it is acknowledged that MY opinion is ALWAYS the correct one. :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

You were all wrong. It was sex offenders.

Sorry we was all wrong. The winner the nasty fisherman having the gall to fish public retention pond.:duck:

(sorry, it's 4:30 AM, I'm on a cruise ship and on my second cup of coffee, I couldn't resist...)

2nd cup of coffee?

So you're saying that "poop" is on your mind right about now?

tophcfa 11-10-2023 11:08 AM

It won’t be the next complaint, but around December 15th it’s a given there will be complaints when the busy season Championship golf rates are published.

I had just finished reading all the bull poop comments on that other website, so yes, I guess poop was on my mind.

If you want to see what everyone who hates the villages has to say (and many that don’t even live here) then v!LL@ges-news,c0m (spelled wrong because it’s blocked here, but you should be able to figure it out) is the place to go. Anything that can be twisted to make the village sound bad is published there, and the comments are almost as toxic as those on Nextdoor,com

Yeah, I've seen the comments on NextDoor. Mostly non-villagers complaining about TV...

I've not spent much time at the other site...

You’re not missing much on either site, too many people unhappy with their own miserable lives looking to poop on everyone else.

You mean kinda' like here, on ToTV? :p

Byte1 11-11-2023 07:43 AM

I rarely read the POA news, mostly due to their viewpoint. However, I would rather they deliver it to me via my driveway, than stuffed in my mailbox. Just my preference.
Do or did we really need a new poll to find out what pet peeves need to be complained about next?

P A Paul 11-11-2023 06:17 PM

Last I knew, golf was most popular past-time in The Bubble, pickle ball is second, and third, with a bullet, COMPLAINING!

Was in Sams and a NON service golden doodle defecated on the floor. Owner must have known that the dog did this since he had a wipe readily available to pick it up and did pick it up. In meantime some Publix shoppers are mad that they can not bring in their non service dogs into the store.

What about 27/441. That has been under construction for 3+ years.
