quote [ What comes to mind when I say “Nub City?” No, it is not a city of squids. In fact, it is a nickname give to the small town of Vernon, Florida, for a very literal reason.

You see, a disturbingly large proportion of Vernon’s residents used to have actual nubs in place of where they once had normal limbs. But why, you ask? Good question. As Davis says, “$$ talks bro.” These amputations were in fact self-inflicted so that the folks could receive big-time payouts from their insurance companies. ]
