Or just another asshole from Florida.
I'd really appreciate it if someone who has actually lived in Florida could explain to me why Florida is the US capitol of unpleasant characters. Like, does Florida attract them, or is it something in the water that makes people unpleasant once they've lived there for long enough?
I lived in Florida for a little over a year back in the early '90s. Bradenton, to be exact. I would describe it as hell, but they have these really cool little lizards. Anoles. I think they were the high point of my stay there.
I had a job pulling wires through attics, went through three cars and got mugged delivering pizzas. The heat and humidity were oppressive, everyone had fleas and don't even get me going on Palmetto bugs. They are like bats, but bugs. I spent most of my money moving there and the rest moving back.
I believe if I had stayed I'd be more surly. Good thing I didn't.
