    "Palmettos" are Jurassic sized roaches with wings. They gaggle in masses that look like a pile of leaves or debris at night. If you disturb the mass, they don't run like a roach .they SWARM and smack you in the ...........awww...The reason I am terrified of bugs to this day..Key West Florida.

      I think they call it roach humor. You know like when you spray them with bug spray and they Kamikaze style launch themselves at you before they go out. I don't know how they can see with bug spray in their eyes to know to hit you but they seem to. I just walk away and act like I didn't see them try not to look in their directions so they won't f*** with you they're the devil's children

    Im from NY and I owned a restaurant in Florida. This couple ordered pizza and all of a sudden the husband is like we had to leave my wife don’t want it. I’m like why it’s ready. He is like -points to a palmetto bug by the front screen door but inside. I’m like that’s my friend Charlie he likes u and he followed u in! She gasps I walk over and literally just kick him out.
    What about those huge scary but friendly manatees.
    How bout a night that never ends.
    I Went out with my buddy we are hanging out he gets to a intersection and he is like we can go right and call it a night soon. Or we can turn left and the night will never end -bar after bar after club opening up early or staying open late.
    How bout raining iguanas when it gets cold! Or huge ones just sunning themselves middle of sidewalk.
    How bout crazy those women!
    How bout trying to ride a bike they hit u on purpose.
    Have a good night!
