I am ticked off at the residents in Winter Park. They are contrarians. You can take any position on any issue and someone will oppose you.
In addition to the serious e-bike situation in Celebration, sadly the crime is out of control. It isn’t the bubble anymore.
How ironic the comment by a person that he has had it with persons that walk around holding their phones in loud conversations. But worse, that the conversations are in Spanish and he could not understand them. Why do you want to understand them if they bother you? Maybe it could be a good idea to learn Spanish so you can understand the conversations and add a second language to your intellect.
I’m ticked off that Amtrak’s Sunset Limited that once provided passenger train service from Orlando to New Orleans and on to Los Angeles has never restored service from Orlando since hurricane Katrina’s damage from 20 years ago. Service from Mobile, Alabama has recently been restored, but nothing seems to be happening at the Orlando end.
In response to who wrote about the e-bikes and scooters in Celebration. I couldn’t agree more. It’s going to take a death to get this under control. Parents must be oblivious to the tragedy waiting to happen. These kids from elementary to high school, ride through traffic, taunting drivers, never stop for stop signs, or lights and yell and terrorize patrons and drivers. There is no control over these kids, parents need to wake up, rather than defend their students. I know this is a dangerous situation everywhere. Sometimes they ride in packs. Please, someone get control!
As an 80-year-old, I enjoy being naked in and around my backyard pool, but it upsets my neighbors. Too bad! I know it’s ugly, but it’s my backyard. Mind your own business!
The flip side
I am so happy that the Ticked Off column is back to normal instead of 100% complaints about the Orlando Sentinel formats!
