Are there any good, used video game stores in Orlando?

Anybody got a good recommendation on used video game stores in town?" I like Royal Empire Gaming in Longwood. Been there a few times to finish my MegaMan Battle Network collection. Lots of stuff new and vintage. Has decent prices. The guy is chill and friendly. Recently purchased a couple of systems from him, one didn’t work and he replaced it with no issues. Gives warranty. Would go back if it wasn’t so far lol.

What is your rational (or irrational) pet peeves about Orlando and Central Florida?

"I'll go first, I hate seeing 4 Rivers bumper stickers and I hate seeing those Pink Autonation license plate borders. How about you?" Excessively long traffic lights... I have never seen anything like it anywhere else in the country. Not only long but programmed in a way that I swear is designed to increase traffic. Lights that are over 2:30 red and under :20 green are not uncommon.

Any recommendations of secret springs in Orlando?

"Hey guys. Do y’all know of any springs around the central Florida area? Not necessarily secret, just not as crowded as wekiwa. Appreciate about it!" It seems like all the springs are very busy these days. If you're just looking for a secluded spot and not concerned about being right at the boil, your best bet is kayaking down a spring run. I did the weeki wachee spring recently on a weekday and only saw about 6 people all the way down. Juniper springs is another good one for that. Lithia springs was always my favorite for a less crowded option.

Looking to move to Orlando from new jersey. How is the job market down there? I have 1 year old son and want to give him better life. " I guess it all depends on your industry.
