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!
Watch them join the british commonwealth to help them cope with the decision
Sweden here we only get 5 weeks vacay. 480 days parental leave though.
People in America and Japan… “‘only’ 5 weeks?!”
So a Mormon couple could get a paycheck without ever working for 30 years?
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.
reeeeeee you hate America!!!
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.
Begone!
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.

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!
As a effectively Canadian that just moved to Florida zis is tri bone non
Knowing very little about the two islands, I find the contrasting descriptions hilarious.
And don’t you wish you kept knowing very little? Instead… en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casu_martzu
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.
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)
Trade Offer: You receive: Alligators, Meth You Give: Debt, Mafia
No one is happy. That is how you know you have reached a compromise.

No
I second this. Hell I might even third it.
NOBODY wants Florida.
I grew up in FL and now live in pacific northwest, still not far enough away…
As someone who lives very close to the new florida location I REALLY don’t want florida
That would be awesome… A Mecca for rednecks/Republicans replaced by walkable cities, a nice countryside, vibrant communities, lovely cafes, and awesome pizza. When does the work begin lol
You take Italy and we sink Florida in the Atlantic. Then it’s a deal
Yeah, but the Balkans have enough problems already and don’t need that shit.
Maybe make it an island?!
Florida is already attaching floaties to their beaches. It’ll be on the way soon!
Yes! I don’t want Florida in europe!
Florida attached to Europe looks mildly like a penis.
Florida attached to Europe looks mildly like a penis.
Florida attached to Europe looks mildly like a penis.
We don’t need that, we already have Scandinavia.
Well you see, Florida would have to adapt to EU rules or lose all the EU funding.
And we don’t tolerate POS like DeSantis.
So give it time, and it will all settle like it is now.
You say that, but Berlusconi was Prime Minister of Italy for a long time.
Well thank you, but no thank you.
We got enough conservatives as it is.
Sincerely
Your would-be neighbour
This is applicable to both of them, WTF.
I really don’t know who the biggest losers are in that trade.
Definitely Sicily, they get wiped out in this plan… .
Corsica is part of France. But then it begs the question: why did Sardinia moved and not Sicily?
Because Americans dont know shit about geography.
That was the first thing I wondered. Where tf did Sicily go… with its huge Etna vulcano…
Corsica is now under the sea
As someone that lives in Florida, would we go over to Europe or do we stay here in the new Italian location?
Some weird choices there with Sardinia and Sicily
And Corsica just vanishes
An absolute downgrade. No sane person would ever want Fl*rida to replace Italy
Yes please, florida is a cancer on the union, like Texas.
This made me realize that Florida is a penis.
now “the florida man who went to malta” will change from a skit to a newspaper headline
Italy going from just a boot, to a boot about to kick Cuba’s ass.
What if you take them off and forget to put them back?
(Sorry for the affected... maybe)
This sort of thing always makes me think of this Bugs Bunny scene
TIL that Florida is basically the same size as Italy. Weird.
just deleting florida would be better
Have fun with the Campi Flegrei
I was about to say that florida can keep their fascist regime, then i remembered that italy is going for a secon round as well, so…

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
