... that's not what that snippet seems to be indicating.
She was an out of touch cunt like her husband
Is there honestly anything more cringe than Texas?
Missouri, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, Utah, Oklahoma......
I dunno. No state's population is so full of itself as Texas' is.
I'm told places like Austin are pretty progressive. I don't really know.
So is St.Louis, but it's still in Missouri.
Austin is deeply up Austin's ass
Lol yes. And the state government goes out of its way to fuck with anything Austin does that is progressive.
Also it's full of fucking NIMBYs, just look at the camping bans.
Everyone I've met there has been just the most insufferable uber liberal mother fucker. They'll talk about how bad people of color are treated at one moment and then call the cops when they see a black person moving in the next. Like you said, it's NIMBY central. Even people from Houston are less insufferable
I work in the Austin area and have to drive 90 minutes to work because the housing prices in Austin have tripled in the last few years.
Depends on what part of Texas you're talking about. Also, a lot of "Texas pride" is supposed to be somewhat tongue-in-cheek.
Really expected Mississippi to be at the top of the list.
Oh dang yes. The very first.
Yes, wealthy people, like Barbara Bush, existing, and commenting on things about which they have zero knowledge.
You forgot North Carolina.
It has some very cool artists there though. I won't write it off entirely. I lived there many years ago.
Non-politically, it’s a great state. Very beautiful; demure even. It’s the shitheads in charge that ruin it for everyone.
Fucking rich people and their stupid fucking mouths wagging.
Awful.
It technically could be true, but it also sounds insane. I might be in a minority, but I hope my house (and entire city) doesn't get destroyed by a hurricane, even if I got to stay in a 5-star hotel afterward
Yes because you totally want all your possessions and neighbourhood washed away just so you can live on the charity of the Ritz Carlton until they get sick of being helpful.
The rich think them taking a piss on your face is them doing charity.
How would the orphans even survive if we didn't have workhouses for them though!?!
Aged like fine wine
His statement did. He did not.
As the wine ages, the cask rots. We already got the wine - what remains is garbage.
