Saw a guy today at the grocery store with this shirt: This was in suburban Queensland which is arguably the most "Texas" place in the southern hemisphere. Texas hate runs deep.

All the Texas transplants I've met won't shut the gently caress up about their Texas identity.Treecko posted:That's just bases in general I think. I was briefly married to some guy who joined right out of high-school, he flew me out to Fort Lejeune in NC and a centimeter of snow dared to fall. There was cars and SUVs in the ditch over it. Camp lejeune is absolutely gross. Jimlit fucked around with this message at 14:05 on Apr 12, 2022 |

Zil posted:A few I used to live at the apartments right next to that house in Midtown, nice older lady lived there IIRC, helped her with her trash cans a few times That apartment complex was a nightmarish pain in the rear end, they would just leave railings falling apart, exit signs and lights would be shattered and trashed, dumpsters would never be emptied, trash rooms would look like the spare room of a hoarder, etc Don't even get me started on the mail room fiasco - I had to take this panorama from the inside of it because management wouldn't believe me when I said we literally couldn't access our packages  When it came time to break our lease and escape back up to the northeast, they were going to charge us a ton of absolutely horse poo poo charges, until we got a hold of their regional manager and found out that they had never signed the lease agreement and they had no copy of our own agreement that we signed in-person After going back and forth with the biggest dickhead property manager on earth, we get a two-sentence email from the regional manager along the lines of "we have looked over the charges. You have $0 balance due." lmfao, later suckers  loving rear end in a top hat Texan fucks, gently caress you guys, your hosed up security doors that could open by just pulling on them hard ended up getting my $500 bike stolen The food in the area was great, though! Shout-out to Les Givral's, Yo-Yo's hot dog stand, the Maple Leaf Pub down the road, for all the annoying and bad poo poo there was plenty of cool stuff tucked away Edit: also the walking/biking trails across the bayous absolutely loving ruled, if you could deal with the summer heat you had miles and miles of dedicated roads for jogging and riding bikes and some absolutely beautiful views of the city and the skyline, hats off to the city for doing a legitimately nice job with it for the most part Good soup! fucked around with this message at 15:12 on Apr 12, 2022 |

Poohs Packin posted:Saw a guy today at the grocery store with this shirt: As someone who had to live in suburban and rural QLD for a lot of their life, yeah it's so trash lol. Motherfuckers who emulate poo poo with ridiculous trucks, giant Australia flags, talk about hunting and guns and survivalism (while living comfortably in a house daddy bought them). And yet there's not many people I've met who have thought living in Texas would be a good thing. It's weird. Personally I'm an inner city Brisbane motherfucker and I like it. Texan BBQ looks good, but I have great access to great examples of drat near every cuisine. Also healthcare and not worrying about being hatecrimed. That's good too.

It's actually a shared joke between the rest of the states to let Texans think they were some kind of hard, rugged people and it kind of got out of hand. The truth is that the only struggle for most Texans is charting out their day in the morning so they don't have to spend time without an AC for longer than thirty minutes.

Jimlit posted:All the Texas transplants I've met won't shut the gently caress up about their Texas identity. Yep. And even more annoyingly they find ways to shoehorn the name of the state into almost everything. I've never seen it so bad with any other state. It's "Oh you think this is good, back in Texas..." "As a Texan..." I even jokingly have a unit of measurement TPMs = 'Texas per minutes' because you can be sure if you're talking to one of them the word will show up in conversation numerous times.

I find it bizarre that the jingle for Dairy Queen is "That's what I like about Texas", which isn't catchy or clever or really anything special Perfect for the state, I guess

There are no positive qualities regarding Texas. We need to build a wall that's water tight around the entire state and turn it into a waste disposal dump.

I drove through Texas during a road trip and tried some BBQ because everyone says it's so good, it was salty as gently caress and sucked copious amounts of cock, the BBQ I had in St. Louis was loads better. Did some really cool escape rooms though.

As a very recent transplant to the Providence area, yeah it's both an absolute loving mess but also a cool place with beautiful areas Way happier here than I ever was in Texas, no disrespect to the many lifelong friends I made there lol Edit: also the best bbq I ever had in Texas was from Fitties, which is an actual shack outside of Austin and it was out of this fuckin world good
