Re We need a sub-forum: Stupid Stories about Stupid People in Florida

Sometimes, you read an article and just know it happened in Florida, even withpout seeing the dateline.

Like this one:

Re We need a sub-forum: Stupid Stories about Stupid People in Florida

Ok. WTF is with all the swords in Florida? Yesterday, I posted a new sowrd-stabbing story, which was different from the old sword-stabbing story.

Today's sword-stabbing story.

Warning: the story is not funny. The story is really sad. But, WTF is with all of these swords? I mean, are you guys running out of alligators and coral snakes down there?

Re We need a sub-forum: Stupid Stories about Stupid People in Florida

I need to point out that there is a big difference between a shih tzu (aka chihuahua with fur) and a child (chihuahua with attitude).

Re We need a sub-forum: Stupid Stories about Stupid People in Florida

Does anyone else want to slap the shih tzu's idiot of an owner? All funny sig lines aside, those little cuties really would only make a mouthful, and that falls into the category of 'WTF was that guy thinking?'.

Sorry Cindy, but I think thats a bit harsh. There is water all over Florida. I think you need to be careful, but if this is going to happen, and thank heaven it doesn't happen often, there isnt' much you can do to stop it.

Re We need a sub-forum: Stupid Stories about Stupid People in Florida

You know, I always think a Floiridian has sunk to the lowest depths of Floriditis that they can. And then I find a new headline that brings the state even lower.

Yes, a Floridian woman HAD A METH LAB IN HER TRUNK
