Nice try. We still don't like what you said.

There are people banned from pools because of their behavior.
Any examples of banishment ?

So let me see if I have this straight. Anyone who is overweight, doesn’t smile, sleeps on the wrong side of the bed, or for that matter doesn’t do things or look according to your standards is from the NE. Pleeeez!

Obviously the OP has never been to Europe and gone swimming. How about the cruise ships with folks from all nations? Thongs are prevalent in many beaches and pools of the world. Perhaps this man was someone's guest. Perhaps his wife adores her husband in a thong. I go to the pools to cool off, exercise and talk to others. I love living here in The Villages.

I have cruised countless times and the first thing I generally do is walk, no run-up to the top adult only deck to view the nude sun bathers. All I generally view are a bunch of semi-nude morbidly obese elderly Canadians in their thongs. I generally then leave the area and head-on to the Lido deck to drown my sorrow in the buffet.

And here I got my dear ex Sandiego hubby white polo shirt with collars to do the yard work at our TV home, like our neighbor wears when he does his lawn.

If you want to only view semi-nude folks who are not obese you don't need a cruise or swimming pool as there are plenty of video's and websites for that. Google is your friend. As one who (100+ lbs & 4 yrs ago) was in that physical condition I give them credit for not being concerned what people like you think. As much as I hate to quote this person remember "BEBEST". What goes around does sometimes come back around and bites you in the azz.

Additionally, I believe I even observed an old fart peeing in the pool based on his body movements and facial expressions. GROSS !!!

I realize that many of the guest here at The Villages come from the NE where swimming pools are not as common as in Florida, but it’s time for “some” of us to change our old way of doing things and behave in a more courteous manner.


BTW - For the IDIOT swimming at The Sugar Cane Rec Center this Sunday afternoon wearing a man thong and weighing in at over 275 pounds --- GROSS to the max !!!

Were they peeing in the pool?
