Curious which part you think makes it orphan crushing. Is it the whole trespass bit?

While some may consider Florida Man to be shallow, this one proves they can be men of depth.

Truly, a well-grounded Florida Man.

"orphan crushing machine" is an analogy for the horrors of capitalism, not literally being crushed

As a Florida man I can verify that we break into rock pits to play. Rock pits full of quicksand traps. I went to collect fossil shells. They would have never found me.

fair point. I feel about this the same way though, because both are the consequences of events that should not have ever happened in the first place

one could argue it's the fault of capitalism that his support system is so bad that he only trusts going to a borrow pit to let out his depression from his breakup

Construction and trespassing would happen even without capitalism though

Who among us will cast the first stone and not admit to being buried shoulder deep in mud?

did the world need another "Florida man"? especially the type who get stuck in mud, not to the ankle, not to the knee, to the shoulder...

the goal should be to decrease them. that would be uplifting for the quality of human society. and for abortion rights, LGBTQ rights in Florida.
