Fun things aside, what I learned by traveling to the deep south? Humankind has no dominion over it. We were warned about bobcats and a twelve-foot gator “back in them woods.” The fish just take your bait and swim off. A bird of prey swooped down on our car that had a wingspan twice my height. I was attacked by waves of fire ants and some kind of mutant wasp with a pendulous abdomen. We saw an enormous grasshopper that, when I heard it rustling in long grass, I took for a small mammal. Someone gave it a stiff nudge, to make it fly, and it didn’t bother to move: Either eat me or fuck off.

In the North we have polar vortexes to kill off these sorts of things.

This is the south. This is what Florida is like. Do not vacation here.
