Noisy kids, drunks,rude people, dog dung
Might as well it's winter and I'm bored :B. So we already have the barking dog thread. Let's get it out of our system. Did I miss any? What gets your goat? You tell me yours I'll tell you mine

Over the last 3.5 years, I've camped in state aand private CG's in FL and the surrounding states. I've never had the any of the experiences in the rant threads I see on here.
Once, my site was a wreck upon pulling in. I called the office and the staff came out right away awash in apologies.
At Blue Springs, SP, the breaker on the pole was defective - it would not stay on. Called the office and 2 rangers were dispatched and had it fixed just as I was finishing setup outside.
Another time, I saw someone letting their dog poop at the entrance to my site and begin to walk away. I asked if he would please pick up as my then 3 year old played in the area - gave him a bag as he explained he had not brought enough with him on his walk - so I gave him 2. Made small talk - very pleasant. Totally understood as somehow my dog poops multiple times on a walk and you can run out of bags. Was invited to hang out for beers and snacks as we were walking by his site later that evening.
I look at peoples setups while strolling and they look at mine. Friendly waves are always exchanged. Heck, I look at TT's going down the road and catch up if possible. I collect pictures of old cars pulling old TT's.
I've walked by rigs where the little yappers are going beserk and just laugh as my son likes to mimick them which embarasses the hell out of the owners. I've been next to people who's dog barks when people walk by - that's what dogs do. My well trained pooch will be silent after I tell her "no barking".
I sit aroung my fire pit at night and roast marshmellows and have awesome conversations with family. I could care less about your lights or music. I'm there to have fun and I don't let the small stuff bother me.
Sorry y'all can't have more fun while camping.
