    Texas wouldn’t be nearly as bad if it wasn’t full of so many Texans.

    They call them Whataburgers there

    As a native Alabamian, obviously Milos is god tier and Whataburger is trash

    Texas is Mexican for trailer park..

    A buddy played rugby for LSU and they had to play a lot of Texas teams and had that printed on their shirts. Anyways, I love it. I was in the Air force and spent time in Texas and hated it fwiw.

    I wouldn’t stay there then.
    Edit: it depends on where it is actually. I did a job years ago and actually was staying in a “bad” area of the city and I had no idea, no incidents and enjoyed the hell out of it. I did see 2 dead people though

    LSU people who moved here for work and bitch constantly of how it isn’t as culturally rich (racist) as Louisiana was one of the favorite constants of my 20s.

    I don’t know where exactly around town it was but a few years ago my company did a job in Houston and rental cars kept getting broken into because the thieves recognized them as rentals. 5 VPs lost their laptops one night when they went to a bar after work and rode in the same SUV lol

    The people who move away are like that too in my experience. Like they moved out of the state but still need people to know just how awesome they are because they’re from Texas and everything is bigger in Texas and everyone has guns and says ya’ll and whips their kids’ asses if they step out of line in Texas.

    Peak arrogant dumb guy energy emanating from Texas.

    Yeah, you can’t leave anything like that visible in a car anywhere. That’ll get you a busted window. Gotta put that shit in the trunk or hide it so no one walking by looking would see it.

    Yes. From my experience it was mostly in response to the multi cultural nature of our cities. They like their racism simple.

    Houston is a muggy, sweaty ballsack.

    Dallas has the best job market. It really would be a good little city if it could be placed where amarillo is to be close to Colorado or new Mexico

    Houston weather has nothing to do with the fact the city itself is better than Dallas.
