Not to mention the people in Florida are complete and total assholes. Like the whole fucking state is just made up of complete and total assholes.

I spent most of my life there and was finally able to move away. It is true, because even people that don't want to be assholes need to essentially act in a certain way to not appear weak and invite harassment or worse. It was a literal shock to my family when random people would just smile at them and say "Hi!" in public in other states.

I'm a Floridian.

He's right.

Sounds like it’s full of people who are complete and total assholes, I bet the whole fucking state is just made up of complete and total assholes.

I grew up there, can confirm.

Most of the state is for sure, and more bizarrely, it attracts these sorts of people to migrate there. I can't quite wrap my head around it. Florida at least used to be a cheap place to retire, so I understood all the older people moving there. Now it is expensive and far more full of assholes. I dread having to visit there to see my remaining family ever couple of years.
