I spoke to my friend Tina (who was born and raised just outside the City) about my encounter with a rude New Yorker in Boca Raton last weekend. That's what prompted me to blog about their behavior.

Anyway, she finds them to be more arrogant here in Florida than up in New York. I asked her why is that? They are on vacation, they should be working on relaxing not getting aggravated.

She laughed and said she had no idea. Perhaps New Yorkers (in general) are a demanding group of people. But what bothers her the most are the New York transplants who have been in Florida for years and continue to bitch about the Sunshine State. Her suggestion is to have them pack their bags and move back to the Empire State (which is actually what her sister is trying to do). I mean, if Florida is really that bad, then what the hell are they still doing here!!???
