[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Way overrated public where the good student Florida redneck strivers end up.

The Florida elite doesnt send their kids to Gainesville….[/quote]

What a weird post.[/quote]

I’m from Florida and that true. -redneck striver who got out[/quote]

Sounds like you have a lot of insecurities linked to your upbringing. Pretty sad for a middle aged person to be so stuck.[/quote]

Absolutely true, I have had lots of counseling to deal with my rough upbringing, and the difficulties that I had to overcome to have a life in the DMV. would not recommend Florida for that reason, as you’ll be going to school with my peers from similar backgrounds[/quote]

You are still stereotyping a state you left 20+ years ago and kids you have never met. I'm in FL and I'm not sure what a "redneck striver" is. Everyone I know is from outside Florida/outside the US.[/quote]

Why in the world do you think I left 20 years ago?  It’s true, but I still go back and have family and friends there. It’s not like it’s had a renaissance - the people who are moving to Florida post pandemic are of similar type.

Maybe you know Miami? That’s a different state entirely than the rest of Florida, which is more Mississippi and Georgia [/quote]

So you hate your family and friends ad keep socializing with them and reinforcing your negative bias without seeking new experiences?  I think you also would have to define what types you are talking about because I still don't see it unless this is some sort of an anti-southern bias. I'm not in Miami btw.[/quote]
