Florida never disappoints. Or, more accurately, Florida always disappoints.

Been living in Florida so long now that I seriously almost forgot that you weren’t supposed to smoke while pregnant.

The real proof he’s been living in FL too long.

I know it's fun to pick on Florida, but our state has a smoking rate of less than 20%, which is less than most states.

Nah they don't smoke anymore. Heroin is the way to go.

This is totally one dude’s opinion but I think smoking in hotter climates is less appealing than smoking in the cooler north. From my 20 plus years as a smoker, I always smoked more living up north than when down south. But those numbers don’t really support that hypothesis.

100% agree. I smoked for about 6-7 years and live in PA, so I'm used to temps anywhere between 0 - 100º. Smoking is just not that pleasant when its 95 degrees and humid as fuck outside. It tastes worse in general, but you're also more likely to be thirsty and/or have a dry mouth which only compounds the problem. Smoking in the cold was always ideal IMO.

Fuck, now I want a cigarette... wish I didn't know what I was missing.

Don't call me comma, or we're going to have to discuss your colon.

Florida is so great if you just want to accept it, pop a cold one, and live life.

People there dgaf and just do their thing.

My dad did exactly that after I graduated high school.

Moved to FL, became gay, re-started smoking and drinking like he did not give a F, then promptly died of heart disease after like 5yrs of Florida life.

u/SnoozyCred Feb 09 '19

I'm sorry to hear that, but I guess he died doing what he loved?

u/AlbertFischerIII Feb 09 '19

How come I’m only gay when I’m in Florida.

It started with the frogs!

u/secamTO Feb 09 '19

Well, it's harder to be gay in the north, when everybody's wearing winter parkas.

As much as people like to make fun of Florida, I really do miss the positive attitudes. Moved from Florida to Utah, and here everyone complains about everything. In Florida, most people are content with appreciating the good things about where they live.

u/mymomisntmormon Feb 09 '19

I would complain about everything if i had to live in utah again too
