Congratulations to your buddy! I went to a dry wedding at a church once. The groom panicked and sent me out for liquor with the best man, so there we were in a church bathroom, 4 guys in their 30s, doing shots with a lookout at the door.
I mean, it’s happening anywhere there are tourist attractions. People come for a visit to FL, go back to New Jersey or wherever and look around and ask themselves what the hell they’re doing there, sell the farm and move down. At a rate of 1000 per day
I don’t want to be that guy, but it’s a completely different place now because of the changes in: attitudes, increasing population, rising costs, transplants from everywhere sort of diluting the og laid-back lifestyle, too many go getter CEOs and shit. Most people didn’t like unnecessary development back then and resisted it, but now development is out of control. Same problems as everywhere, I guess. This part of FL used to be a bit of a secret, so we never had crowds back then in Sarasota, and St. Pete was developed, but sleepy. Different in every way
It sure beats the way I did it in the 80s and 90s, which was: get ripped on the drive up to Jannus (it was called Jannus Landing back then), drink red stripes for 6 hours while puffing the occasional random joint that went by, then driving the 40 or so miles back to Sarasota with one eye closed
It was last year. October or November I think. It’s so nice to stay at the hotel directly across the street from the venue so you can just stumble over there after the show and hit the rooftop pool. Great time
So the /r/bitcoin sub was decent. The /r/cryptocurrency sub went very toxic. I would put a lot of effort into it here if there were even a budding bitcoin community here, but it’s all crickets. I want to help educate people that bitcoin is both more and not what they think
