Palm Frond Used As Weapon In 'Most Bizarre' Robbery

"(The plant) was sharp," said the clerk.

(This one is kind of a giveaway in Guess The State points.)

Not really a giveaway... I slashed the shit out of myself just this evening carrying palm fronds from our backyard, and IIRC you include Texas in these sometimes...

That said, it'd be the equivalent of robbing someone with a paring knife. Sharp? Yes. A threat? Not so much. Kudos to the guy who clobbered him with the barstool.

Nope. Guess The State is *always* either Ohio or Florida.

Despite the desperate cries of the Texans, wanting to get their medium-sized overgrown-county of a "State" on the list, there's simply not enough awesomely dumb news from Texas to make the grade.

For some reason I thought it covered Florida, Ohio, Texas, and Utah. I guess my memory's going. :P

Remember, Fark has just two state codes: Florida and some other state.

Am so glad my time in Fla is up and I no longer have to live there. Still trying to wash the stupid off.

Worst Fla moment was when I drove home from college, got to my Mom's house, plopped down on the couch and turned on the tv, to catch early news (4PM). They were just reporting from the dog pound on a a large German Shepherd that was up for adoption. It had recently been rescued from a sex dungeon in Tampa, where guys would take their girl friends/wives and take pictures of dog and their women. Was now being featured as pet-of-the-week, trying to get it adopted. The news anchor at the pound, she reported that ...and the dog's really friendly.

OF COURSE IT'S FRIENDLY! IT'S USED TO HAVING SEX WITH WOMEN! IT'S PROBABLY EXPECTING SOMETHING MORE THAN AN EAR SCRATCH RIGHT ABOUT NOW! /Louis Black voice

This was the same year that PeeWee got busted and they caught some county sheriff helping his wife prostitute herself and then filming his wife from his bedroom closet, with the guys.

Man, what a messed up state.
