Florida Foot

It's when a person, usually a woman or older person, uses his or her foot to kick open a car door. It happens mostly in SUV type cars where the person will have to step down.

Don't park next to Midred's spot unless you want a door ding. She uses the Florida Foot.

Oh here comes another Critical Masshole! Quick! Florida Foot!

Florida Speed Bump

An alligator. They're called Florida speed bumps by locals in non-metro areas of Florida because alligators tend to use the sunlight heated roads as heat rocks. They sprawl out across the middle of the road, and serve as a huge, scaly, armor plated speed bump. The bigger ones will not flatten if you hit them, it will just tear up your car real good.

Dale - "Hey Jamie, what the hell did we just hit?"

Jamie - "I reckon we just hit one hell of a Florida speed bump!"

Florida International University

Any college's reputation comes down to opinion, some opinions more qualified than others.

And I understand if current/past FIU students want to call this school 'prestigious' or 'excellent,' but
that's more a showing of school loyalty than any type of objectivity.

This school by virtually any sense is a safety school in Florida. It is that "I didn't get into any other four year universities so, ugh, I guess I will go here" type of school.

It has a better reputation than some of Florida's community colleges but it's hard to say anything more positive than that.

U.S. News Report is generally respected as the leading authority on how colleges measure up. I think that is the first source people consult when comparing universities and deciding where to apply or enroll.

These are the most recent U.S. News rankings of some recognizable national universities.

University of Florida Rank 42
University of Miami: Rank 46
Florida State: Rank 81
University of South Florida: Rank 140
University of Central Florida: Rank 171
Nova Southeastern: Rank 198
Florida A&M: Rank 207
Florida International University: Rank 216*

Although FIU ranks in last place among the listed schools, it is actually a marked improvement from not even making the list in years prior to 2018, and it has surpassed some community colleges.

However if you pay no mind to the leading assessor of college quality, then maybe you can be proud to go here, I don't know. Just my opinion anyway.

"Hey, you going to college next year?"

"Sort of, I only got into Florida International University."
