I have read or re-read every post here and what I discovered is confirmation bias. Every statement that basically said The Villages is utopia, not Utopia but close or something to that effect was termed an excellent post, wise or good counsel, etc. Conversely posts which were critical, showed concern or something to that effect were consider to be negative, unrealistic, whiners, or just plain complainers who might want to consider living some place else. .
So one could conclude that the primary way to be popular is to always send good news irrespective of its validity. |

Some of us are talking about facts taken in context, and others are stereotyping the whole community with a very wide brush by taking rumor--not fact--out of context--out of the context of LIVING here. Somebody even implied, based on the rumor herein, that the Sanford, FL tragedy could be repeated here because of the hysteria....to which that very comment added fuel to the fire by bringing murder into it!! |

I think we all have concerns from time to time. Hardly a week goes by where I don't say "OMG, I'm living in Central Florida, I can't get a decent haircut, I'm on my last decent purse and I think the brain is being sucked out of my head". I have plenty of negative thoughts about this joint, but I keep them to myself. I don't think I have the right to intrude on everyone else's fun. I have to say though, it has been a learning experience. The diverse population has helped me see things differently. Thanks to GG and last election I now know where Iowa is.:thumbup: POPULAR? Man I didn't know that was the goal here, let me dust off my ta-tas and get to work. |
