People come here to escape their former circumstances, just comes with the territory.

"Yes, I'd like the Whopper medium-rare with no onions and ketchup on the side. Light salt/pepper on the fries. Less ice and don't fill the drink all the way up. Oh, can you cut the burger in half?"

I worked at BK as a kid, and people would specifically request "no salt" fries to ensure they got hot fresh ones without a hassle.

Back when I ate fries, I always ordered them without salt...from a fast food joint.
Nice and hot!!! Besides, they pour tons of salt on them...not good.

I never yield to these mo-mo's, especially when they cut into my lane to avoid bicyclists. I have a dash-cam and an attorney on speed-dial.

Well...those people should be kicked in the nuts. But we're not discussing people with simple requests, but people with drawn out, overly specific requests, as if they're ordering at La Maison or Chez Le Bouf in Paris...

Yeah, I get that. Floridians (like Texans) are born to it, doesn't matter where they were actually born. I'd say this includes pretty much everyone here at FSN. No offense was meant, just ranting about the "Florida Man" meme. But let me say this about that - if people come here to escape their former circumstances, where the hell can we all go when it gets too fucked up to live here?
...and before you chime in SteyerAUG, IA is too damn cold for a South Floridian - hell, I couldn't live too much farther north than Atlanta anymore.

Road construction flagmen who give you a dirty look and frantically wave you to move on faster while plainly holding a large sign that says SLOW.
