[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the crazy poster going on and on about trash cans. I am from Florida. Three things to note 1) until about the 60s almost no one lived in Florida full time until a/c became ubiquitous. Florida spring/summers are a humid hell if you have to actually go to work etc. hence very few old homes except beach houses and vacation homes. 2) Florida is HUGE and flat. No topography, so they build a community of new homes, then abandon them after the retirees die off and move 5 miles over and build brand new community. That is at least true for any of the houses you post. Truly desirable coastal areas are very expensive. If you were to post the 1960s tract homes that litter the state basically abandoned, those trash cans and townhouses look stellar. 3) Florida weather sucks. And the roaches and wolf spiders and mosquitos. [/quote] 1. I don't know about the 60s. I was dead. "hence very few old homes..." huh? Non-sequitur. 2. I grew up on a beach. I don't care where you grew up or where you lived. I didn't post those houses. Someone else did. Coastal areas, like Miami Beach, aren't that expensive. At least not in my price range. I don't know about the 60s tract homes that litter the state -- I fly in and out of MIA. Why would I need to see all that sh**? 3. I miss the heat and humidity. Get in an air conditioned car to go to work. Don't work somewhere that doesn't have air conditioning. Embrace your frizzy hair. I didn't deal with roaches - I understood how to utilize pest control. Don't have to worry about mosquitos anymore. Monsanto released their GMO mosquitos that murder non-gmo mosquitos. I don't know what a wolf spider is and I was born and bred in Miami. Sounds like you lived on an Indian reservation. Anyway, I remain disgusted by the trash cans. I get the spirit of defending your hood, but, dude, your ugly huge garbage cans lined up in front of your horrible little row houses depress me. But if you love it, that's all that matters. Let's agree to *agree* that we're happier'n sh*** never to be each other's neighbor. [/quote]
