Seems like a list of things that others falsely attributed solely to him, rather than him taking credit.

No he didn’t. Stop spreading this bullshit. The elephants owners electrocuted it after receiving backlash after they were going to hang it. There is a false tale that Edison did this to display the “dangers alternating current”. But Topsy the elephant was electrocuted 10 years after the War of the Currents. Edison wasn’t even present.

Literally not an example of the Dunning-Kruger effect. But nice attempt at sounding sophisticated.

Nope, born and raised and still live in a blue state. But I'd probably save a bunch of money in taxes if I lived in Florida. Too hot for me though.

"hurr durr Florida bad" - reddit
How the fuck do you know the people were even from Florida?
Edit: the responses below are just further proof that this website is a collection of the biggest morons on the internet. People who literally can't wrap their heads around the fact that you don't have to be from Florida to visit KSC.
And no, I'm not from Florida, nor do I live there.

One time I was shoveling through a big pile of mulch that had been sitting there for awhile. It was in the middle of July, but by the time I got to the middle, I hit snow/ice.
