I know:)

sometimes I get so damn angry around here when i get customers in here that
can't even speak a lick of english. how can they read street signs or even
buy mcdonalds??

It's so ridiculous down here. I need to go back to West Virginia, least I
know 99% of the population there speaks english:)

sorry, just venting my anger for this cesspool called south florida.

4 things I hate about this whole area:

1. the old people

2. the mosquitos

3. all sand, no dirt or mud, where's the soil??

4. lack of english-speaking immigrants

I know my family immigrated to the US in the early 1920's from Yugoslavia on
my mom's side and in the late 1800's from sicily. But we all speak english!

and don't tell me you've never gotten angry while ordering fast food and the
cashier asks you to repeat yourself because they cannot understand english
too well.
