Default Grocery Lane Blockers

People who park their grocery carts in the middle of the lane and then just stand there, blocking the path for the rest of us. Yesterday, I was at Sam's Club and a woman did that to me. When I tried to squeeze around her, she turned her cart so that I couldn't get through that way, either. When she realized what she did, she apologized and we both had a laugh.

A corollary complaint is making up rules that aren't enforced. This encourages rule breaking and, if taken to the extreme, ultimately leads to anarchy.

A specific complaint within these general topics is people using the swimming pools without showering first. Yes, it is a rule! Why? Imagine all the chemicals and toxins that go in the water from those who don't bother showering first -- skin creams, sunscreens, hair gels, deodorants, after shave, perfumes ... and things you'd care not to think about.
Self-awareness and being kind to others is not high on many people's priority list.

The only rules are 1) no complaining about complainers, 2) no political complaints, 3) no complaining about TOTV, and 4) no complaining about the OP.

I’ll have mine in a little bit, but feel free to start us off.
@ last a page that keeps complaining under control, lol.. excellent idea

I think that people that USE very little amenities due to aging and living in The Villages for over 10 years SHOULD get a discount on amenity fees.

Slices are more prevalent than hooks.

A head-on collision. Won't be pretty, especially for a goof kart doing 30.
(speed limit everywhere in TV for golf carts is 20, unless posted even lower)
I have been told that GOOF CARTS never go 30 or more MPH.

Television commercials where they jack up the volume. The Gob-O-Ment was suppose to stop that practice around 1970. I guess that the commercials were more important than what the citizens wanted.

Theoretically you are correct.
But if someone misjudges their lane, the person who had the greenlight is the winner. Right turn on red driver always has to plan around the greenlight driver.

Lottery tickets. Red cars and trucks. People that pay to have their lawn mowed. Cars and trucks with loud mufflers. Golf carts with gasoline engines. People that wear all black. People that wear all black when they are riding a bike or E-bike. People that feed ducks and geese bread. It should be grain like corn. Annual flowers on round a bouts. Tall plants blocking visibility on round-a-bouts. People inside using their "outside voices".
