jgerd26 -- whereas your online activities seem to be solely devoted to expressing an obsessive and unhealthy amount of hate towards me.

I wish you had the courage to publish your real name and address so that the we could send LE to your door and either arrest you for hate crimes or place you in an institution for the mentally ill.

This seems uncalled for.

You’re describing 25% of the population of Florida, and it’s not like you can get cooties over the computer. And Internet-you is spamming this same message all over, whereas Internet-Rob is acting pretty normal, so... I’ll take my chances with the puppy dog.

bobby -- you think 25% of Florida residents are sex-offenders? Wow. I have a few relatives there (with children) who would disagree. SMH at the bad, bad reputation that poor state has.

Well, I was joking. Florida’s bad reputation is kind of a meme, especially its reputation as a place (I don’t know where in Florida exactly) where sex-offenders go to live.

Also, I had relatives who lived in Florida for a few years and it wasn’t nice. They moved there for work, then lost their jobs and then kind of got stuck there until other relatives loaned them some money to move away. Completely anecdotal, yes. But what I saw of (central) Florida at that time was not good.

I was sort of defending you, by the way, on the basis that I personally have never seen anything untoward in your posts and because this other poster seems a bit obsessed.

Bobby -- I was aware that FL became a laughing stock in the Bush-Gore race (the hanging chad debacle), but I've never heard any mention of it being a place "where sex-offenders go to live.

I'm glad to hear that you were intending to be funny, but I feel there are a few (just a few) subjects in this world that will never be funny.

And yes, I did recognize that you were "sort of defending" me. I understand that you wouldn't want jgerd26 to place you in his/her sights.

You’ve never heard of the “Florida man” meme? It’s current / more recent than Bush/Gore.

Anyway, I came to this board to discuss Life Below Zero, which I just started watching a couple month ago. I seem to have hit it at the off season though, as nobody seems to be active in the discussions.

Never heard of "Florida Man". Sorry. I HAVE heard of "Flori-duh!", though. And have listened to copious examples of same. Just never the sex-offender proliferation thing.

And gladly would I leave this discussion behind and focus on the show this board was created for -- one of my favorites. But yeah, we are in between seasons right now, so board activity will be scarce. So, unless we meet on another site somewhere, this will be goodbye. It's been nice knowing you.

Also, no offense intended to you, jgerd. I am familiar with some people on IMDb that do need to be called out, but in this case I choose to remain skeptical since I don’t see the harm.
