I don't see fun and silly as mutually exclusive events. Some of the most fun I've ever had was while being silly

HAHA! I think it's hilarious when people say that.

Parts of Florida are Southern, in my opinion. My family encompasses both.

My mom's side of the family has lived in the same town in Florida since the 1860's, and before that, were in South Carolina & Georgia.

My dad's family moved here in the 1970's from good old New Jersey. My grandparents were born on Long Island.


My mom's side has thick southern accents, and my dad's side has thick New York/ New Jersey accents... it's hilarious when the two sides get together


ok... end of my ramblings.
