Like when they came here IN A PANDEMIC to rip their masks off and “breathe a little”! I loathed those people. Treated our home like a f*cking day spa they were entitled to and couldn’t have cared less that they were risking infecting and killing all the locals.
You know. The ones they’re angry at now for not staffing all the restaurants.

Or, better yet, when they all bought houses here during the pandemic making an already hellish real estate market 10x worse.

It's just time to get out of the city, you know? Finally have that dream that I'll be able to automatically set up a little farm on a few acres of land (because being a farmer is super easy and totally affordable, especially for newbies) where I can work from remotely from home and ignore advice that all-weathers will be fine in the winter. That's what Vermont is and what Vermonters do, you know?
Fast forward: "WHY is there no high-speed internet and WHY are heating costs so high and WHY can't I get my drive plowed as SOON as it snows and OHMIGOD these roads have black ice! And-"

"Oh my GAWD, I just want some cawfee! What do you mean there's a 5 person limit inside? But we're all together, I just want some cawfee, it's safe up here, Vermont is supposed to be safe, I'm with them I just want some cawfee." -actual New Jersey meltdown in summer 2020.

Complete morons with no critical thinking skills WHATsoever. It was “safe” up here because we were masking, distancing, and generally followed the rules. Soooo they came up here and thought, wow, I feel really safe, better take off my mask and get pissed that I’m being made to follow the rules, too? The ones that are keeping people safe? What do you MEAN the people who took this seriously aren‘t letting ME break the rules?

I think that was our breaking point with tourists. We finally started telling them “no”, you AREN’T above us, and BOY did they get piiiissed… That hospitality effed all the way off when they showed they didn’t really give a crap about us as people.
