Second, it is in the license instructions the dmv provides that "a birth certificate must be issued by a government agency. hospital birth certificates cannot be accepted."

it should also be noted that you can renew a drivers license by mail in florida providing you don't need to make any changes.

So as i said, i am baffled as to why you had a problem, or why you had to engage the office with colorful conversation, or why you resorted to refering to them as "the fl driver's license comedy castle!" when they were only doing their job as they're required to - with the possible exception of asking you for a birth certificate to renew your florida drivers license.
