Then I went to a gun range, where I began by firing two pistols. ![]() When I first arrived in Orlando, in late October, I rented what to me was a comically large Ford SUV and drove to McDonald’s for hash browns and a cup of breakfast tea (zombie-gray, error). “Do you remember the story about the woman who got in trouble in New Jersey for trying to board a plane with her emotional-support peacock?” “The thing about being the ‘punch-line state’ is that it’s all true,” the writer Craig Pittman told me over Zoom, his tropical-print shirt gleaming in the sun. ![]() Ronald Brownstein: The contradictions of Ron DeSantis You couldn’t get away with that in Massachusetts. In his speeches, the governor likes to boast that “Florida is where ‘woke’ goes to die.” In his 2022 campaign videos, he styled himself as a Top Gun pilot and possibly even Jesus himself. In the other corner stands the state’s current governor, Ron DeSantis, raised in the Gulf Coast town of Dunedin, a man desperately trying to conceal his attendance at the elite institutions of Harvard and Yale under lashings of bronzer and highly choreographed outrages. (When Trump entered the 2024 presidential race, the formerly supportive New York Post jeered at him with the front-page headline “Florida Man Makes Announcement” before relegating the news story to page 26.) In one corner, you have Donald Trump, who retired, sulking, from the presidency to his “Winter White House” at Mar-a-Lago, in Palm Beach. It is no coincidence that the two leading contenders for the Republican nomination both have their base in Florida. “The general Republican mindset now is about grievances against condescending elites,” Michael Grunwald, the Miami-based author of The Swamp, told me, “and it fits with the sense that ‘we’re Florida Man everyone makes fun of us.’ ” But criticism doesn’t faze Florida men it emboldens them.

Chroniclers talk about its seasonless strangeness the public meltdowns of its oddest residents how retired CIA operatives, Mafia informants, and Jair Bolsonaro can be reborn there. Florida’s place in the national mythology is as America’s pulsing id, a vision of life without the necessary restriction of shame. ![]() Internet memes sometimes refer to Florida as “the America of America,” but to a Brit like me, it’s more like the Australia of America: The wildlife is trying to kill you, the weather is trying to kill you, and the people retain a pioneer spirit, even when their roughest expedition is to the 18th hole. “Florida Man Known as ‘Sedition Panda’ Arrested for Allegedly Storming Capitol,” a recent news story declared, because why merely rebel against the government when you could dress up in a bear suit while doing it? In headlines, all of these exploits were attributed to a single character, one first popularized in 2013 by a Twitter account of the same name: “Florida Man,” also known as “the world’s worst superhero,” a creature of eccentric rule-breaking, rugged defiance, and unhinged minor atrocities.

At least that is how it's supposed to be, but things would have turned out differently no matter what happened. Everything that happened was all Yusuke's fault.

Hiei and Kurama are just cool, if you'll simply look past Kurama's unfortunate fashion sense (the pink jump suit just doesn't work for me). He has most of the best fights, and his scenes with his girlfriend are classic, and usually end with him getting slapped. He'll do the right thing, but he'll always have a smart-alec remark to rub your wounds with salt. Yusuke is the jerk with the heart of gold. I think the main strength of this show is in the characters. ![]() Basic, but with good execution it can be quite effective. And surprisingly enough, he's dead."
