(Serious) Did anyone ever grow up in Florida? What is it like living in Florida? And what are the different parts/cities of Florida like?

I like to vacation there, and would love to move but I am tied to my job. Also, I think I am too old now. I should have moved after high-school. The best part about warm places is the hedonistic pleasures that come with sparse coverings. People have an incentive to stay fit and tan. They are less uptight. But to really enjoy that, and participate to the fullest you have to be young and fit.

Some may say that hedonism is what destroys society, but I think there is a time and place for everything, and the destruction comes from people doing that stuff for too long. You should get it out of your system by 25, then raise a family.

If you don't enjoy dealing with the heat by soaking in a pool then maybe Florida is not for you. But that sounds like a good day to me.

The only thing that worries me is how ghetto parts of Florida have become. Particularly Miami.

ABOUT A DOZEN YEARS AGO, I WAS HOMELESS IN THE TAMPA/STPETES/CLEARWATER AREA FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND I CAN TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT NOT MANY OF YOU KNOW ABOUT...

IT IS PRETTY MUCH ILLEGAL TO BE HOMELESS IN THAT AREA... IF YOU SLEEP, YOU HAD BETTER HIDE, BECAUSE IF THEY SEE YOU SLEEPING YOU WILL GO TO JAIL... DO NOT JUST SIT AT A BUS STOP AND NOT TAKE THE BUS, BECAUSE YOU WILL GO TO JAIL.

ASK AROUND.

Yeah, I would not do it that way anyway. It is incredibly narcissistic for people to think they have a right to be such a burden and eyesore to the whole area. Vagrancy is not a victimless crime, it destroys the local area. Especially when paired with public drug use. Get a camper, or a van.
