The introduction of gators into the Alps would certainly garner attention.
I guess with the lower temperature they’d be less of a threat.
Only for the short term, they’ll adapt and be stronger than ever
And don’t forget, these aren’t normal gators…
These are meth-fueled Florida gators who are as likely to ban books as they are maul a skier.
The Alps won’t know what hit ‘em.
Then I’d be an E.U. citizen? Fuck yeah! Give me two months of vacation!
My condolences, but Florida immediately voted for Flexit
NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo!
I bet they would if you called it that
That sounds like some shit billy mays would have been shilling on tv 15 years ago.

Sweden here we only get 5 weeks vacay. 480 days parental leave though.
People in America and Japan… “‘only’ 5 weeks?!”

You generally (it depends by country) don’t get paid anymore between 6 and 12 months. But you still have a job. So when they get tired of using her womb like clown car, they could back to work. Also is usually (again varies by country) shared parental leave. So between both parents up to the maximum allowance.
That’s a good point, but for Sweden, it is indeed 480 paid days. It’s a government calculation related to your income and there is a point (after 390 days) where it drops to the minimum payout, but it is still paid leave.
There are also government-mandated options in Sweden to receive a slightly lower pay in exchange for working fewer hours. I don’t have the exact details here, but it’s something like 75% pay for 75% hours.
Pretty incredible coverage for new parents in that specific country.
This article has a great summary for a lot of European countries’ parental leave laws. And yeah, quite a few are less than a year of paid leave:
Don’t forget we don’t have a limited amount of days were allowed to be sick either.
So, 5 weeks more than we get! That sounds amazing!
Canadian here. I signed a contract with 4weeks of vacation that was changed to ‘unlimited’ this year. So far I’ve taken 5 weeks and have a 6th week approved in November.
I haven’t used any sick days but they’re unlimited. If you take more than 3 in a row, you need a doctors note.
15 weeks parental leave that can be split between partners (father can use none/some/all to look after child while mother goes back to work)
My state now has mandatory parental leave, about a year after me and my wife had decided that we didn’t want more kids. Oh well. At least people in the future will benefit.
At least youre not the type to try to stop something because you missed the window on benefitting from it
Even if I were it wouldn’t apply in this case. Having a society with programs like this in place helps everyone even indirectly. I am fine with greed as long as it goes beyond basic right in front of you.
We all benefit from a better world. Sure some more than others but all at least some.
We don’t have 2 months vacation…
Or hyperbole, apparently :(
Four weeks, two months, whatever, they’re both still infinitely more than Americans are guaranteed, which is zero.
reeeeeee you hate America!!!

Tuscan farmer: that’s strange, I don’t remember there being a meth lab there…
The mob would have a field day
Nah, the left Sicily where it was.
Italy has plenty of mob besides Sicily.
So I get rid of the land border with France, but in exchange I get a land border with USA - possibly the only worse country.
Also we lose Sicily and their awesome food and women but we get to keep Sardinia, where the best food is cheese with worms and the best women are one meter tall with moustache.
Bad deal man.
And remember you get a border with the worst part of the USA, even better!
At least there’s no Corsica anymore (Sardinia but Fr*nch 🤢)
Fam, corsicans are the only ones who hate French more than us, they are welcome to rejoin Italy whenever they want.
So I get rid of the land border with France, but in exchange I get a land border with USA - possibly the only worse country.
We’re not going to go to all that trouble just to keep the damn place. You get the worst of both worlds: French Floridians!
Sooo… New Orleans?

Knowing very little about the two islands, I find the contrasting descriptions hilarious.

Putting the Vatican below the Bible belt is going to be a disaster
deleted by creator
US Catholics have adapted a lot of the beliefs from the protestant-oriented groups in the US. Try asking Paul Ryan or Rick Santorum if they accept the Vatican’s official stance on evolution and watch them squirm. Having the Vatican be right there would be . . . difficult.
It would still be a disaster what ever happens. I never said them getting along would cause said disaster
Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius.
Nah not really, the catholic church loves going below the belt
Well, the Italian government is going full-on neo-fascist, so it’d probably be a wash, but the food would be so much better!
I’m into it, and I can see mexico and Cuba being into it as well.
NO GOD PLEASE NO
Being in the EU is like the one good part of the Italian government, if you take that out I guarantee we’ll somehow manage to be even worse neighbors than Florida
Likewise. Having trump and orban derail EU together is my worst nightmare. Please, keep an eye on your Florida. Don’t let it sh1t in my backyard.
Counterpoint: I want authentic Italian food
Then come to Italy (or rather: go to France or Austria near the border so you can enjoy Italian food without actually dealing with living in Italy)
I live in Georgia USA I’ve been to FL way too many times Europe doesn’t deserve this.
It’s amazing how quickly it turns to shit on I-75 S when you cross the border. You can just feel the nastiness.
Meth production triples in Europe in just weeks of Florida’s arrival!
NOBODY wants Florida.
I grew up in FL and now live in pacific northwest, still not far enough away…
I’ve never been to Florida. Just the right amount of times
As someone who lives very close to the new florida location I REALLY don’t want florida

No
I second this. Hell I might even third it.
Tell me you’re from Europe without telling me you’re from Europe.
You get what you get, and you don’t get upset!
Why is Italy a penis?
Yes, because the food would be better.
Fuck you, we’re not giving you Italy!
