Hello, citizens of DarkSpyro! If you've been wondering where I've been, I was in FLORIDAAAAAAA! And I have a reputation for being Anti-American, so lemme tell you about my experiences!


Holy shyte it's hot. Seriously. We should start selling snow to the southerners, that's how hot it was. So anyway, I saw a lottttt of people on those scooter thingies,
specifically fat people
and it seems that the scooter things have bad handling. The food was good...when we ate out. We bought some shyte at this overpriced grocery store called Goodings to eat every now and then, UGHHHH. Also, I noticed a severe lack of Tim Hortons stores. Dunking Donuts is alright, but if you haven't had Timmies you haven't lived.

So I went to Epcot and Universal Studios, (I went to Disney when a was a wee little boy but not to Epcot so there you go) and it was cool. In Epcot, the Canada exhibit did an OK job at representing Canada. The video by Martin Short was way better. In Universal, it was cool too, the Harry Potter stuff was amazing, got me a wand of Dumbledore.


However, on the final night....

So we went to this Planet Hollywood, and as we were waiting in line, there was this girl, see? And she had a t-shirt with this anime chick on it. Now, first things first PARTS OF HER MOUTH WERE MISSING, second thing HER HEAD TOOK UP MORE SPACE THAN HER BODY. Christ, I go to America to see American stuff, should I go to Japan then I'll see that stuff. But in the U S of A? Hell naw.



So, I made this, and IDGAF.

Or Ohio and eat Skyline (the #^#%@^&%^@#&#@@$@#$*@ best food in the states)

Missouri's also nice and rural.

Meh, I'm not really anti-American ('cause you know, I am American) though there is a lot about the culture that I can't stand.

As a Floridian myself, I can agree it is disgustingly hot here. I can't wait until late Fall.

Yep, people (Mostly tourists) do that, it's just something that they do. If you don't want to see that, step out of tourist town and see a few other things. It's rather nice outside of the stupidity of Central Florida.

I've never heard of Goodings, Publix and Winn-Dixie are the ways to go for food. Manny's Steak House is a great restaurant if you decide to go back, the steak is delicious and the demand is high, but it's worth the wait. There's also a pretty good breakfast restaurant right next to it owned by the same couple.

It's great to know that you liked the theme parks, Epcot is a pretty great park in my opinion, but if you want thrills then go to MGM Studios. Animal Kingdom is also fine, but it doesn't have a lot of rides. Never go to Magic Kingdom in the Summer without preparing for massive lines.

I'm guessing the one in Downtown Disney? The food's alright there in my opinion, but the whole story is common here. A lot of teenagers are into anime for some reason in the Sunshine State.

So there is my commentary as a Floridian, I hope you come back down someday despite it's massive flaws.

How's about he just go to every state?

The US is such a huge land where every state/area has its own demographics, culture, and identity; though certain areas and groups of states can be pretty identical in that sense (the Deep South, New England, etc).
I'd like to go cross country someday. I'd even do that in Canada just for the sake of it.

New York still best state.

I went to New York City and it had strip clubs everywhere. True story.

There's other stuff here I swear it can be family friendly. :c

Is it odd that I haven't actually seen that many strip clubs in the near 18 years I've lived in this city?

Pretty sure the US doesn't have Tim Horton's, whatever that is.

Regarding the anime shirt, why are you surprised? Anime is highly popular not just in Japan. There are conventions and shops solely for anime across the US. I will usually see at least one person with an anime shirt a day at the park where I work.

There's a place called "Strip Joint" not far from where my father works but I'm pretty certain that's just a restaurant.

There was one that I knew of that was coupled with a few other fast food joints. Closed down though.

It's probably popular enough in the New England area, like Wawa.
