We are all terrible people. You should teach us a lesson by kicking Texas out of the union.

Now I want some chicken fried steak, mashed taters, fried okra and Texas toast for lunch later today.
Fireman's 4 and sweet tea, maybe some pecan pie for dessert. |

Your correct. It comes from having their heads up their asses and using loctite to keep it there. There are some wonderful people there but the state tends to breed more jerks than most states. Maybe it the wearing of cowgirl boots that causes it.

I was in my 30s before I had any real business dealings with a Yankee. He was overbearing and it was "fuck" this and "fuck" that during polite conversation in front of women. I was raised a polite RC Texas boy and my eyes got big and I kept looking at my boss in a surprised way.
Boss pulled the Yankee aside and told him that we do not talk like that unless war has been declared and if he did not clean up his language he could take his money elsewhere. Yankee was stunned. Said that's the way they talked Back East. Boss was unmoved. |

I can't imagine living anywhere else. There are absolutely things about other states that I like----climate, scenery, landscape, historical buildings----but there's no other place I've ever been that feels like Texas. It goes way deeper than just a place we live.

Well I personally have been treated like shit by landowners and county officials while working Oil and Gas in PA. Pretty easy to tell we weren't from around there, things like accents, TX license plates and my old Oilers hat gave me away.
There is no other reason an intelligent Texan would head to PA than oil or a woman. Weather sucks, roads suck, rude and obnoxious assholes are everywhere. Though you start dangling thousands of dollars in front of them then you aren't so bad. I spent time in all parts of the state, Pittsburgh all the way down to the SW border and I've never met a more angry, bigoted group of liars and thieves than there. I've worked East Texas, South Texas, NW LA, Central & South OK, North CO, Eastern Wyoming, ND, PA, WV and Eastern Ohio. The worst was PA. Just over the border in Eastern Ohio the people were extremely friendly and helpful. |

I deal with a lot of customers and vendors in Texas and they are, 9 times out of 10, self centered, arrogant, douche bags. Come to think of it, the most arrogant people I've ever met in my life were Texans. I'd blame it on the industry but I've seen too folks from Texas on here acting the same way. Am I wrong?

Texas is a horrible, jacked up place. That's the reason all these people act like the OP talks about, the place is so bad it makes them miserable. My advice is that every one thinking of moving to Texas avoid the place like the plague, especially the people from the north east an California. View Quote A.W.D. |

Even the Texans in Austin are still nice, it's just that the vast majority of Austinites are not Texans by birth or any other extension of the word. My sister still lives there and says that being a native Austinite in Austin these days is as rare as finding a Las Vegas native in Las Vegas. View Quote |

This thread is going almost exactly how I imagined. A bunch of Texans chiming in attacking me but not really denying my observations. A bunch of people from the rest of the country agreeing with me. View Quote For example, My observation is, OP has started a thread based on an unsupported opinion. My opinion is, PA is a shithole of a state better left to the rats that infest it's cities. |

You haven't made any observations. You have posted an opinion. Your public education should have shown you the difference.

Not for me. If I end up going somewhere I've never been before with the wife to meet friends or whatever and they've posted a 30.06, I just walk right in. Concealed is concealed. I'm not going to make a big announcement to everyone that I can't go in because I'm carrying. I may never go there again, but I'm not turning around and putting my piece in the car either. Fuck their sign. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

For the record, this did not start out as a "Texas chest thumping thread". It started out as a Texas attack thread. There are assholes from every state and good patriots, too. Decide what you want to be.

I am from Texas. We might be a little arrogant at times. I would just request all haters stay away. Please move back, to the state you came here from. Yankees go home. But for the most part all the Texans I deal with are good, hard working honest people. God bless Texas.

Ask them if they were born and raised in Texas.
In other news, real Texans are tired of yankee liberals and west coast commies. |
