I'm beginning to wonder if Uttar Pradesh isn't India's Florida.

I hope so. I'm starting to see a pattern in Florida Man's behavior. Typically something to do with fucking alligators, public indecency, and crack or meth. I need some variety.

Uttar Pradesh, it's a province of India

I'm from Michigan. 'UP' is what we call the upper peninsula. I was very confused for a second

Honestly this isn't that far off base for some of my mom's Yooper relatives, meth is a hell of a drug

Wait…. This isn’t a Yooper Man (close cousin of Florida Man?)

Edit: the article is about India. No idea what “UP” is…. But I’m just gonna go with “India has Yoopers too”
