If you’re from Florida, you’re probably sick of hearing the same few things every time someone asks you where you’re from. It’s almost always about retirees, theme parks or gators. I guess that’s all anyone hears about Florida in other parts of the country (and the world). Here are some of the most popular questions people ask when they find out you’re from Florida and how you should answer them, (or at least how I would answer them).

I went a lot when I was a kid, but it's actually been years since I visited a theme park. Hmm...maybe a road trip is in order.
Funny enough, a lot of people find that once they move to Florida they don't end up going to the beach every day of the week like they envisioned they would. I guess knowing it's always there makes you less obsessed with being there all the time.
