We are very thankful that we only felt a very weak Irma.

I'm not sure, but was thinking she meant the TOTV neighborhood.

Probably because complaining is the #1 pastime on TOTV, and since all the golf courses are closed it's even worse.

Some people would complain if you hung them with a new rope.

Complaining----reminds me what my good friend Ron, RIP, use to say: "Jim, I could pull into a driveway with a million dollars for them and they would complain that I was driving a ford pickup instead of a chevy".

What I don't get is the constant complaining about things that have absolutely zero effect on the complainer.
Complain about people eating out instead of eating their hurricane stash, complain about people who travel faster than you in a golf cart, complain about The Villages not opening shelters (when you have no idea of government protocol for doing such)...
If something I do irritates you but has zero repercussions on YOU, then shut up and mind your own business. Stop worrying about what "could happen" and worry about yourself.

Is that a complaint about complainers?
