catfish
Which is funny when you consider the modern parlance of "catfish"....

@boomzilla I'm surprised that's considered newsworthy. Is it not a daily occurrence for Florida Man?

And now for something completely different...

Back on topic!

@boomzilla wait, they outlaw bestiality there? There goes my working hypothesis.

My first thought was "how did they find out?" - then I read this:
The recording was made in “May/June 2022,” according to a complaint that does not reveal how police obtained Springer’s “personal USB drive.”
That's the part I really wonder about.

I bet they showed someone the video, or a friend otherwise saw the video. Unless the dog reported it because he's planning on suing for psychological damages.

People leave their USB keys all over the place. I've seen news of Brit ministers leaving USB keys containing databases of the population, or of national secrets, on a train. And some people actually believe the USBkey advertising, and hang the stick in the key ring with their home keys. Then they're surprised when the thin plastic loop breaks, and the drive is nowhere to be found. And some of the really security-conscious (or paranoid) have all their personal files on that one drive, and nowhere else.
Speaking of key rings, here's a funny story. I once looked after a relative's dog for a few days. And also needed to hand some files to them. So I put them on a USB stick, and attached it to the dog's collar. When the day to pick up the dog rolled around, sure enough they'd forgotten all about those important files. Then the next day, I get a call.
: We forgot the files! They're important! And urgent! You have to drive here ASAP!
: Look in your dog's collar.
: No time for that! Files! Driving!
: The files are on the USB stick that you got with the dog.
: What stick? You never gave me any stick.
: Like I said, it's attached to <dog's name>'s collar. Look at the front of the collar. See the long USB stick hanging off it?
: Where? ...What's that? Oh. Is that a USB stick?

"Investigators say that Jefferson’s 11,000+ calls account for “approx. 10% of the total call volume to the St. Petersburg Police Department non-emergency number.” (emphasis mine)

@jinpa Yeah, if she'd been abusing the emergency dispatchers like that, I'm sure they'd have taken action long ago. Somebody could have died due to the delay while they were busy with her shit.

Conversion therapy, it sounds like.

Slow news day?
-
@Zecc Not necessarily. Many news outlets like to throw in one funny or outlandish story a day as a token that not everything is grim, dark and serious.
-
@boomzilla Some people have special boxes in their cars for transporting their dogs.
In florida, is there an eequivalent available for transporting one's alligator?
Asking for a friend...
-
@BernieTheBernie yes, this is what the back of an El Camino is for.

It may have been a beef with broccoli.
I was planning to make beef with broccoli for dinner. Maybe I should reconsider.

Broccoli also goes well with a simmering silence.

Looky that - Ian is targeting places. Since it's targeting places, it must be able to think, hence, it's a "Florida Man"!

@jinpa huh, 120 seconds of Rt. Sodom.
After exchanging fire, both drivers spotted a Nassau County Sheriff’s Office (NCSO) patrol vehicle. They pulled over, and the drivers jumped out and engaged in a fistfight until the deputy pulled them apart.
I've wondered what sort of mentality considers it a good idea to live atop a lensed water table in the jaws of a wrathful ocean.
This helped a lot.

@boomzilla Naked? Cowboy hat? Crack pipe? Machete? Beating a woman?
BINGO!
-
@boomzilla must be brave (or on drugs) to attack a machete-armed woman.
-
@Benjamin-Hall said in Florida Man goes to...:
not a woman with machetes for hands. Because that would be scary
Edward's sister?

Simple, all attempted cross-breeds with male alligators that were sacksful resulted in alligators, and not expressed hybrids.

@boomzilla original video:

When I googled the guy's name, the top news article about him wasn't this incident. Instead it was about how he faked being related to an F1 driver to boost his real estate business.
