I'll take 20 below over 100 degrees any day.

I can always add clothes when cold while only so much can come off when it's hot. I also can't stand sweating the minute I step out of the shower.

This summer was the first time I experienced dry hot though, in North Dakota. 90 degree dry day- was weird. I would move and sweat - but then the second I stopped, I would dry. That hot wasn't real bad. I'm used to humid weather.

I've heard the "I can just add clothes" excuse so many times, but I don't care how many layers you throw on in sub-zero temperatures, you're still going to be cold!

I don't care how YOU describe it. Texans are far from shy about this topic.











Shouldn't you be cutting yourself or something? You've had such a hard, miserable life.

seriously though, wtf does my personal life have to do with any of this? i'm not even native to GA, for the record. it's a nice state though. i'd rather live here than texas. georgians have a lot of pride too; yet they don't try to cock-whip everyone who lives in a different state. the "everything's better in texas" mentality really pisses me off. and you guys are batshit insane too. i work locally with a guy who is a native texan. his daughter couldn't be born in texas, so he had a jar of dirt shipped from his parent's place in texas so he could place it under the birthing bed; JUST TO SAY HIS DAUGHTER WAS BORN ON TEXAS SOIL.

I've got some in-laws from Georgia. The oldest son of the family is a giant fucking loser who cried (due to personal depression) when he saw the wife and I graduate. Clearly representative of the state (sarcasm).

Nice thread to eat lunch to.

i've known some giant fucking losers from texas as well. so what? my point is that texas is no better and no worse than any other state; i just wish texans would own up to it. there's good points and bad points about anywhere you live.

texas is the statehood equivalent of a teenager driving a riced-out honda who thinks his "whip" is way better than any other car ever made.

Actually, I have to play devil's advocate here. You made a list about what states you would not live in, so obviously you do not believe the above is true. There's nothing wrong with that, just stay consistent.

that's MY list. as in my OPINION. as opinions are like assholes, i don't expect mine to be the same as everyone elses. texas (just like every other state) has pluses & minuses that factor in to its relative attractiveness. egotistical BS is not something i tolerate very well. texans love their egotistical nature--it's time-honored baseless self-aggrandizement. others (transplants) like being "on the bandwagon". my evaluation of the state is that it's fairly par for the course; and i'd love to live there....i just can't stand the egotism.

Second vote for going to live and die in Texas.

You could argue that Americans as a whole are the same way about their country. We are notorious for exhibiting a great amount of national pride, thinking ourselves the most powerful country in the world. Are you saying it's wrong to take pride in the city/county/state/country you live in?
