They're both equally weird. And as bad as it is, I prefer this Flo to the insurance lady Flo.
I was thinking of a different Flo. 
Kiss my grits!

Okay, long and convoluted story coming...
In late 2003, I bought a new WRX and almost immediately realized that I would need snow tires for it. I found a guy near Bridgeport on eBay who was selling nearly every part of a low mileage WRX. The auction descriptions were written in horribly broken English, but he had a perfect set of stock alloy wheels. I was fairly convinced that the car was stolen. We made a deal, and I got directions to his house. My father and I got in the truck and went for a ride. We may or may not have been heavily armed.
It was the nicest house in a bad neighborhood. The dogs were big and angry.
The guy could not have been nicer.
He was a Russian immigrant, and a former pilot of fighter jets in the Russian military. He was working as a machinist in the area, subcontracting parts for Sikorsky. He had bought a nearly new, but totalled in the rear, WRX for it's engine and was selling everything else.
He was fulfilling a lifelong dream and building an autogyro, and, apparently, turbocharged Subaru engines were the powerplant of choice. He had purchased a half finished autogyro kit for pennies on the dollar, built a beautiful shed in his backyard, rebuilt the engine inside and was putting everything together.
The previous owner of the autogyro had painted Yosemite Sam and "Kiss My Grits" on the tail. As he proudly showed me his work he asked, "What is this 'Kiss My Grits'? I don't understand this...". I did my best to explain, but I don't think I did a very good job.
He proved to be the first in a long string of really good people I have met while buying car stuff on eBay and Craigslist. Fingers crossed, but I don't think I've run into a bad guy yet, though I have shopped in some pretty sketchy neighborhoods.
I was impressed by his work, but I jokingly said, "I'll look for you on the news".
I have since seen video of him flying that cool little machine.
Kiss My Grits, Sergey...
I could see my 10yo brother and 12yo me using those as weapons, and beating the hell out of each other. 
doesn't get much more fun than fat dudes with mullets and beards.
