You Might NOT Be a Floridian If...
This is a list I compiled in about a half hour tonight based on the popular "You might be a redneck if..." jokes. In case you were wondering, this is all my own original thoughts, and they are all based on things I have observed non-Floridians doing or saying. Some are funny, some are serious, but all Floridians can relate :-D I'll add to this list later, but I figured since I haven't written a real post in a really long time, I would post it today. Enjoy.

You think tea should never be butchered with sugar.
Ah, so you are an "Unsweeter"! Good for you, because putting all that sugar in my tea can't be too good for me. And I drink so dang much of it. Thanks for the comment...It's nice to know people are still viewing.
thingfish - Just last night I watched a "Heritage Not Hate" presentation on PBS. It got me riled up (in a good way). Lordy, I love the South. But yes, I will save that for another day.
