What is it about Texas......?
 

I like this. I wish it were real. Maybe it is? :hustler:

Yeah, it's real...ol Mr. Hogg, Boss of the "missing Texans" division of the State Dept. doesn't beat around the bush much.

I get those letters from time to time when I go out the country to Califonia.

Thank you for the "FYI" Mr. Canadia.

I LOLed when I read this:

1. "Pending acquisition of this state or territory by the Armed Forces of the Unites States."

Texas likes to think they're the biggest state.
:giggle:
If Alaska were divided in half, Texas would be the 3rd largest state in the union.

but alaska doesn't have half the population.

Damn, sooooo... Weed is legal in Canada!

Legal-ish.
Possession is illegal, use is legal. Just another example of Canada's ability to compromise.

lol @ death penalty

My only problem with Canadians is that they wont turn right at a red light. Really sucks when you get stuck behind one.

I dont like just about everything about texans.

I love texans. They are truly old school americans.

1. "Pending acquisition of this state or territory by the Armed Forces of the Unites States."

Awesome. One day we will take over Canadia

I'm gonna remember this turdmonkey.

Sorry. I'm very irritated by groups of people that have tons of pride just for the sake of having tons of pride with not much to be proud of =P

GTFO! We have 105 degree days with 100% humidity for about 4 months straight. That's just one example of our paradise buddy. Did I just blow your mind?!

Seriously though, we have TWS, MSR-C, MSR-H, ECR, Harris Hill, TMS, Grand Motorsport Speedway, an F1 Track coming, and we don't have a "Track Season" as they are open year round. Oh yeah, and we have the River Walk, so suck it.

LOL...when you put it that way.



My pride for my state isn't just for it's own sake...and I don't stock up on Texas paraphenalia or anything.

I just like the people, the diversity of landscapes, the fact that we are enough cultures with a land big enough I could never have to leave this place my whole life. It really is different down here when you've grown up here.

I have a feeling I'd be just as proud as a nice place like Washington though. My sister went up there for Art School, and the scenery pics DID blow my mind. NW is on my list of rides.

For serious though, the PNW IS THE SHIT. You need to take a drive out here and come along with the locals to either carbonado or on the Peninsula drive. No bullshit, the greatest roads I've ever seen. Ever.

Only thing that really sucks about Texas is that Dallas is in it. I know people from there that are cool, but there is a general distain of people from Houston toward Dallas people and its reciprocated.

If I was in a bar in Washington though and they were picking on a Dallas guy, you bet your ass I would stand up for him though, becasue he is from Texas. That's my right, not theirs. Plus if we were in Washington, it would just be a bunch of hippies in the bar, so it wouldn't be too bad of a fight.

ftfy.

HAHA!

Texas may have it's faults, but atleast it isn't Canada.

I hate when people that make hasty generalizations about Texas and Texans. We aren't all like that.

Watch it dude, or we'll drive down there in our Priuses & old Mercedes running on biodiesel and beat you to death with cans of PBR wrapped up in our scarves. Sadly.

Texas is the shit and we have the hottest bitches, hands down.

Yes we are, don't deny it. I'd die for my country and by country I mean TEXAS! Remeber when we got matching "Texas > Everything" Tatoos?

My guys just came into my office to check on me because they thought they heard me scream when I was laughing at this.

hahahaha. Austinites must be a different breed of Texan. I love my state as much as the next Texan, but my views on politics and religion rarely match up with my "stately brothers".

I lol'ed

Texas...
Willie Nelson
Lyle Lovett
Robert Earle Keene
(^not into country except for the preceding three, all of who are great)
Don Henley
Buddy Holly
Roy Orbison
Janis Joplin
Billy Gibbons
Butthole Surfers
Pantera
South by Southwest (event)
And that is just a taste of the musicians from here.

Shall I go on?
I have a nice house on 10 acres bought for less than what someone would pay for a POS apartment in SF or Manhattan. There are areas of high real estate cost here of course but they are still cheap for what you get.

+1 on all the race tracks and the year-round racing/biking/sailing/whatever season

Bird Island Basin (windsurfing mecca)
South Padre Island

80 MPH speed limit on I-10 west of Kerrville. Highest in the U.S. according to my latest intel.

five distinct geographic regions: great plains, Eastern piney woods, coastal plains, hill country (whoohoo) and Sonoran desert.

Most, and meanest motherfucking tornadoes anywhere (OK that could be a minus, but huge thunderstorms are very cool as long as you do not get hit by hail or a twister. The awesome power of nature). Oh yeah and hurricanes.

Shall I go on?

I know two facts about Texas. I work with a kid named Jonathon. He's from Dallas. And he tells me that,

1. Houston smells like shit. And everyone in Texas knows it.

2. The girls in Dallas are super fine.

Texas Sucks. ESPECIALLY San Antonio... IMO.

As opposed to Reno? I mean Tahoe is very close, which is a fantastic place, but otherwise :facepalm:

no humidity, mountain scenery, every damn season to experience... not to bad here.

I will EQUALIZE you! lol

On a serious note, I can't imagine living anywhere else.

Wait, this just in. The Santa Ana winds in California are caused by the fact that Reno really blows. It's true.




Seriously, just returning fire. No real animosity against most places, except for Juarez... and Mogadishu... and Pyongyang...

Last report I read said Texas was in the best economic state out of all the states.

Texas is the shit. Want to know why? Let this soldier tell you (Watch it, it's fuckin hilarious)

Sorry I couldn't embed it for some reason.
Feel free to explain to me what im doing wrong.

Gary.. Look what you started now....

attractive, very attractive penises in texas, i'm not gay though

:bowrofl: Reno is like a dirtier, shittier version of Vegas. Nothing but hatchet man stickers and ugly women there. We see 10's in Texas everyday; shit, I'm dating one. The only good thing about Reno is it's close proximity to Tahoe.

This just in: Texan education has proven to be poor when there are texan claims of winds blowing east from Nevada to Cali.



I hated everyday I was there for the months I was there... I hate feeling like my whole body is asleep when it rains. I hate the fact your freeways is like driving on a hot-wheel track. Its sad when your damn freeway system has U-turnoffs built. For being sooo close to the mexican border... your mexican food sucks.

I hear Reno has some shitty police.




btw, arizona rocks.

Who said east? Not me. But, Santa Ana winds blow FROM the east (some of it from the Reno area) to the WEST, across California.

Austin has our PNW hippies.

That used to be true of Quebec but even they saw the light and changed the rules - everywhere that is except Montreal and Montreal sucks donkey balls. I grant you that some of us are reluctant to turn on red 'cos some of your states either don't (or used not to) allow such turns and we can't tell because your road signs are so f'd up. (I'm sorry I lied about your road signs, they're totally f'd up).:fawk:

We have the most guns, Texas possess 20% of all guns in the USA.

We can open carry a rifle.

///thread

I love Texas for all the reasons Californians and Canadians gasp in horror.

lol

I've been to TX plenty, to Houston/Pearland/Spring where my cousins live, to San Antonio where my aunt lives, to Dallas to have a one-night stand with Trey and John, and to San Angelo for some job training. San Angelo sucks, but Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio were pretty awesome. Better, if I had a GPS, because driving in Dallas sucks. Apparently road signs are the only things which aren't bigger in Texas.. and half the roads want you to pay to drive on them.

This. The same for Tennessee too. It sucks i I can't damn open carry here. Hell I can get in trouble for someone seeing the imprint of a gun on me. Damn liberals afraid of honest citizens carrying guns. I am a Teneseean first, then a Texan. This is one of the few states I can tolerate. I would rather live in a smaller town than San Antonio though. I liked wichita falls when i was there, even though there wasn't shit to do. There is quite a bit of bullshit here in San Antonio.

i want to be in San Antonio. Mostly for the college chicks and jobs being there in large amounts.

If you want college chicks, Austin needs to be your destination.

but there isn't 6 figure jobs in austin for me.

austin rocks. no place i'd rather be than sittin @ the spider bar in the summer drinkin shiner and sweatin

What exactly do you do? There are loads of rich people here.

Uastin sucks. Its too hot, the traffic sucks, taxes are too high...do not move there, especially if you are from Dallas or California. Don't be fooled by the hype.

^^ wink wink nod nod. california sucks more. and being $19b in the hole, its guaranteed to suck more next year.

+1, actually. Austin is horrible, and I plan on moving to get away from all the suck going on here.

The hill country around Austin is awesome, but traffic can still get bad out in the sticks. I'll stick with my southern Houston paradise of Pearland. It is so much more humid on the south side of houston than it is on the north side. Oh well. You gotta pick your battles. I live on almost an acre and have a 4 car garage in the back with a lift in the driveway and no HOA.

Honestly I would move to the Grand Junction, CO area if it didn't snow there so much and all mine/my wifes family wasn't here.

The country north of SA is nice too, right around where corky's shop is. You could live there no problem and commute to SA. If i get moved to Fort Sam, I will be moving that direction.

Just read the whole thread. I want my 3 minutes of life back. I cannot afford to loose it to useless drivel

Don't get me started on Jersey...

I went through jersey once... worst experience .......ever.

Edit. This was my experience. Except the other way around. I had to burn my boots you know.

I've lived in Jersey all my life. Must be a masochist.
