You know your from Fla when:........ Ppl get tickets for going under the speed limit, there's a 50/50 chance the driver who hit you has no insurance, every ATM menu is in Spanish and Creole and English, you decorate a palm tree instead of a regular Christmas tree, you spend just as much time indoors in the Summer as ppl up North do in the Winter, every other car has a handicap sticker, there's a rehabilitation/hospital complex on every corner, hit and run accidents are the norm, you barely notice the nightly police helicopter, you are more likely to see an alligator or iguana than a deer, you have no idea snow is wet. I could go on and on, lol.

When they roll up the side walks by 9 pm and there are more cops then people.

When you go to walgreens and at 10 am the line to pick up pills and booze are 30 mins long.

When you go out side 11 months a year and start to sweat at 7am .

When people are still trying to sell their homes for 600,000 and it maybe worth 300,000 .

When you live in a gated community and dont know your next door neighbors name after 5 years.

When your dog gets loose and it winds up at the pound 4 times a year as all your neighbors do is watch you.

When you speak about anything to do with the internet and you feel like your from Mars.

When you live in a wealthy town and your wife is the best looking girl for 30 miles around and the youngest lol.

When you pay new york prices for food you would not feed to your dog.

When your electric bill is more than your car payment.

When you realize that you think people are just not home and find out 5 of the 15 houses on your block are in forclosure.
