Used in a sentence: "Now that I've passed the two year mark as a Floridian, it's time for me to get more familiar with the Florida specific lingo -- so the recent article highlighting Florida-related terms in the urban dictionary arrived at just the right time ... especially seeing as how I want to be ready in case I ever get to be a surprise witness of a Florida baptism whilst shopping."
Note ... this is an urban dictionary reference. And it's one of the "clean" ones. But "clean" doesn't mean that it is free of judgment, prejudice and a little bit of classism. So if humorless is your default setting, you might want to look away.
Also note: no babies were harmed in the creation of today's post. That being said, I do suspect that *many* babies were harmed in the real world that led to someone creating this entry in the urban dictionary in the first place. But that's not my fault. I haven't yet seen a Florida baptism in person. Yet.
Also also note: this kind of thing NEVER happens at a Target. Just sayin'.
SO SAYETH THE URBAN DICTIONARY:
