1. Florida Man is blamed for carelessness

2. I think that happened next to me last night

Holy cow what a racket. It went on and on. It was so loud we had to stop watching TV cause we couldn't hear anything.

I must be getting old because I had to resist the urge to go outside and yell "get off my lawn".

And of course I kept wondering how much wasted money was literally going up in smoke.

At least I didn't hear any sirens so maybe everyone kept their fingers.

3. South Florida is dark BLUE

Is that why DU hates us so much? Are we too 'far left?'

[malaise]

4. I love South Florida

One of my siblings and her family live there - I visit every year.
Lighten up - it's the Onion.

6. Yeah all the attacks on the 'far left' here

I should lighten up

7. The County I live in was one of the few in the country...

To unseat a republican house member in the last election. West Central Florida here. I love many areas in South Florida.

5. At least it's been raining like a mutha, so this year we didn't spark wildfires.

Ah, July 5th, which means my idiot neighbors should only be shooting them for four or five more days.

In my opinion the problem is that they sell the garbage everywhere you go.

Walgreens, Publix, Wally World, tents on every street corner, and other places are pushing them onto the locals who I'm assuming pass out drunk each night in early July before they can fire off their paycheck's worth of explosives.

8. Very funny.

"Ah, July 5th, which means my idiot neighbors should only be shooting them for four or five more days. "

They started lighting them off in my neighborhood about a week ago. Should stop by the end of this weekend.

bought up all the land next to the break.
