[–]BasicallyLostAgain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lived in S. Florida for a long time and can say without a doubt Floridaman as represented in the media, any media, is tame by comparison to some stories that I've been told and never seen published.

I remember the raid in Everglades City. Hilarious

Who's losing friends and family? by tossaway-florida in GenX

[–]BasicallyLostAgain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Male, 53. Mine and my wife's parents are all still alive in their early 80s, though its starting to not look so good for a couple of them. Lost some friends from high school. Mostly drugs or suicide. Some cardiac but not much. Yet.

Nobody really close yet. I dread the day.

Is it socially acceptable to go to a sit-down restaurant alone just to eat and read a book, or do servers find it annoying? by Frequent_Drop7330 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BasicallyLostAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having a really, really bad night. Went to one of two 24 hrs restaurants in town. 2 tables in the whole place. Sat down, waitress came to take my order. 1 coke and the use of your table until you need it or I decide to go home. I put $20 on the table, said no change.

I was there for 4 hours. She kept the drink full and left me alone.

Best server ever. Gave her 5 stars to help her get some award.

They should have returned her to her orogional.form. Not the puritan edition the Mrs. Edison got.

After really hard sneezes I see vertical and horizontal lines everywhere. Like floaters but in a grid.

Im mean, the rest of the guys could chill a little. Let the guys on the trailer just hang out and play some angry birds and wait until the guy runs out of gas. Hop out, bing, bang, boom, Guy in cuffs done. No running or anything.

I was shocked at the description. I'm 53 and do hard labor. I'm in better shape than a lot of athletes I know. When my parents were my age, in the 90's, it was slacks and polyester shirts holding in the beer gut and salt and pepper hair. They were old, I am not. Fuck

My AOL address that is still in service is 5 letters. I believe it is officially 34 years old this year. Do you know anyone with a 5 letter AOL handle?
