Silly Thursday!

 Thanks to Ammy( AO4) , who got me in the mood fur a good joke or two, I thought I would share what  it was like living here in Florida! My other Floridians may have seen some of these before...

 

Welcome to Florida! You might be a Floridian if...

"Down South" means Key West

"Panhandling" means going to Pensacola.

Flip-flops are everyday wear.

Shoes are for business meetings and church.

No, wait, flip flops are good for church too

Socks are only for bowling

Sweet tea can be served at any meal.

An alligator once walked through your neighborhood.

You smirk when a game show's "Grand Prize" is a trip to Florida.

You measure distance in minutes.

You have a drawer full of bathing suits, and one sweatshirt.

You get annoyed at the tourists who feed seagulls.

You never use an umbrella because you know the rain will be over in five minutes

You smile when someone calls florida sunny.

you laugh at people who complain about the humidity.

All the local festivals are named after a fruit.

A mountain is any hill 100 feet above sea level.

A good parking place has nothing to do with distance from the store, but everything to do with shade.

Your winter coat is made of denim

You can tell the difference between fire ant bites and mosquito bites

You know when to come inside before mosquito-thirty.

You know the four seasons really are: almost summer, summer,
not summer but really hot, and Christmas.

Anything under 70 is chilly.

You've hosted a hurricane party!!

You go to a theme park for an afternoon, and know when to get on the best rides.

You understand the futility of exterminating cockroaches.

You can pronounce Okeechobee, Kissimmee, Withlacoochee, Okahumpka and Loxahatchee. and know where all of them are~

You've driven through Yeehaw Junction.

Bumper stickers on the pickup in front of you include various fish, the NRA and a confederate flag.

You were 8 before you realized they made houses without pools.

You were 12 when you first met someone who couldn't swim.

You've worn shorts and used the A/C on Christmas.

You know what the "stingray shuffle" is and why it's important!

You could swim before you could read

You have to drive north to get to The South

Every other house had blue roofs in 2004-2005 and why~

You know that anything under a Category 3 just isn't worth waking up for.

You dread lovebug season!!!

You are on a first name basis with the Hurricane list. They aren't Hurricane Charley, Hurricane Frances...but Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne.

You know what a snowbird is and you hate them.

You were twelve before you ever saw snow or you still haven't.

You know why flamingos are pink.

You think a six-foot alligator is actually pretty average.

Have a Happy, Silly Thursday!
