Nice and perfect is mine.

Gulf side beaches win awards over and over, ocean side hardly ever. Guess it is oppressive to those who dont know a good thing.

Once again....

I have lived in Florida since 1987....

I know all about the beaches, trust me.

Stop trying to "educate" me about Florida when you've lived here for like 3 years.

No doubt about it. If is where it is at. Either you like hot humid weather or you dont. That is something that has to be dealt with just like northerners deal with temps

If you dont like hot and humid you should not be here from April - November. The "snowbirds" figured that out a long time ago.

Of course there are people who thrive in temps with the highs being less than 50 for 6 months a year and then there are those who thrive in temps that do not drop below 50 degrees and have highs in the lower 90's in the summer months. Of course us 50 degree minimum people suffer through January and February when it can get and stay pretty cold for several days at a time.

Strange as it may be though, there are folks who have been here for decades and hate the hot weather we get from May-October. Not only that but they continue to stay where wages are very low, cost of living is high and everything else just plain ole sucks.

There are people who thrive in temps with the highs being less than 50 for 6 months a year and then there are those who thrive in temps that drop below 50 degrees and have highs in the lower 90's in the summer months.

And I have many of you that fall into the fake knowledge category.

It gets old "I know more because I have lived here longer" I know better. Those who sit on the computer inside 24-7 365 do not know enough about Florida to even post about it and that we have many of here in the forums.

I knew and know more about Florida when I did not live here then most couch potato computer living wanna bes do or ever will.

LOL I was told when I did not live here, "hey, you cannot post that because you dont live here" Then when I moved here certain posters changed that to "hey, you have not lived here long enough".

You cannot go to work, come home and sit on your can and pretend you know many things about Florida.

You have to get out of the house to see things.





To steal a line from Richard Sherman, I am better at life then you are!! And I might add. And I know it.

The edumucation of some people will continue on many things about life, money, family values, moral values Florida and a host of many other things.

It all boils down to what you consider a "good thing". Floridas overall population seems to get a lot smaller in the summer months. Those people must have a different idea of a "good thing". Some like it, some don't. A cool breeze blowing thru a open window is pretty nice.

OMG

I have to educate you again.

10,800 post was when I lived in Ohio freezing to death. DUH

less then 600 since I moved to Florida 3 years ago.

I will do the math for you.


3 years in Ohio 10,000+ post.

3 years in Florida 600 post. See the difference.


Why should I go away? Why dont you because it gets old correcting and educating you.


But nice try anyway. Get the facts correct before you post next time so I dont have to waste my time fixing the constant misinformation.

So the reason you spent 10 years on the GULF SIDE means what?

We are talking about the gulf water temps etc vs the east coast side here.
