Official Jacksonville Thread - Now with a taste of culture

Another Jax beacher here but might make the move back in town bc a decent house out here is expensive

 

Beach boy 4 lyfe

 

Yea I’m glad I bought out here in 2015. We’ve since moved into a bigger house, but the initial starter house out here now is just silly expensive. Not sure I’d be able to afford it.

 

If I ever move back it’s the beach or Avondale for me. Both elite parts of town.

 

I get the appeal of Jax beach and Avondale. But my kid’s elementary school is a mile away and eventual high school is 2 miles away. That and I can fish in about 15 minutes from
House to water with my kayak.

 

Sounds like Jax Beach.

 

Lol right? Like there aren’t schools or fishing at the BEACH.

 

Maybe but at this point they that can pry my 2% mortgage rate from my cold dead hands

 

sounds like our plan too. My dream house is actually on Roscoe road on the water but I’ll never afford that

 

I’ll get pissed off looking at the beach when a tear down crack house pops up and it’s like $500k. Most anything that wouldn’t make me house broke is trash and my wife and I make decent money.

One of my friends bought a house in jax beach in 2018 for $370k. It’s worth $700k now. Nice house for sure but jeez.

 

Bought mine for 525 in 2019 and I could probably get 850 now. It’s insane.

 

Hello, I will be moving back in 4 years. St Augustine Bch doh, but we can still be friends. I can’t go Jax Bch because I don’t want my wife to remember that killrbee7 is real:Tebow:

 

It’s ok, she probably won’t recognize me. I’m much more muscular now

 

This is not good news

 

We bought our current house in 2020, basically same situation. Thankful for my son bullying me into buying a house with a pool. That’s really the only reason we moved at the time.

 

I’m probably in the minority, but I’d be in favor of my taxes raising slightly if it meant that came to fruition.

 

We’re in St. Augustine Beach for the week. My in laws are planning on going to the Columbia and watch fireworks downtown. You can see the fireworks from my parents house a mile away (and likely from the back side of the 3rd floor condo we’re at) but of course that’s not good enough. I expect this to be an unneeded shit show. I don’t like going into downtown on a random Saturday in February, much less the 4th of July.

 

We always just watch from them each & I hear you on going downtown…nope

 

killrbee7 Had lunch at Vicious today. Got The Vicious and a bloody. It all was very good, but I wished I had added an egg to it (didn’t realize I could do that until after). Really enjoyed the branding and the vibe but had to circle the parking lot a few times for a spot because we came right around noon. Will be back, for sure.

 

That’s funny, took the fam there this morning. My boys go nuts for the waffles.

 

I noticed my co-worker was there yesterday too.

 

Need all my beach-dwelling locals to check in or I’m going to assume one of you is hoarding that 1.6 billion

 

i fucking wish

 

I was stuck in a hospital watching my wife have a baby

 

Well, if anyone among us hasn’t had enough good things happen to them, you definitely deserved this one.

Spoiler

for real, congrats on the kiddo

 

It was me.

 

Not me

 

RIP to the absolute worst bar in Five Points


After 30 years, Wall Street Deli & Lounge in Five Points to close
It decided not to renew its lease after ServStar bought the bar and two more businesses in the Riverside neighborhood for $2 million.

 

Is this the one that allowed indoor smoking?

 

Yep. Right next to Birdies

 

Hey fellas, visiting some family in St Johns area this week. Me and my pops are looking to play some golf. Not looking for a super nice course, but not a dump either. Y’all got any suggestions?

 

There’s new course in st John’s called Stillwater. Haven’t played it myself but have heard from a few friends that it’s a nice spot.

 

Everyone ready for Idalia?

 

Bought water and already had a full tank. Will park in a parking garage tomorrow.

 

I need the current tracks times to be accurate because that would put it here at low tide.

 

“Government problem,” says piece of shit who was the government for the last 8 years.

 

Lol

Was just searching this story to see if it had been discussed on tmb. Just saw it this morning on espn. $20mm plus before they noticed? Good lord

 

and the Jags just asked FanDuel to give them $20mm back lol

I think the dude had to be money laundering to people through daily fantasy with how bad he was on there. Was in big money games and wouldn’t even set his lineup
