have you ever been here, your opinion?

Question

has anyone had experience with texas? i'm visiting here now, and quite frankly, i think they're delusional here. this is conservative stickville usa. and for some reason, the people i've ran into here are arrogant as hell. They say everything in texas is bigger, and i swear they stick their chest out a foot farther than people anywhere else. i've also heard refences by people here comparing this place to california. yeah, maybe bakersfield. if you've been here, or just your opinion?

Answer 1

Just remember who used to be the Governer of Texas... good old Dubya!

Does that say enough?

Answer 2

I've from Texas and now I live in the NW and I do see a difference. People here are not nearly as friendly and the discrimination is much more subtle, but just as flagrant as it can be in the south. However, in fairness to both states, it could be just a matter of WHERE you live in either region.

This place has taught me something though: there are jerks everywhere and where you live (and where I lived) are no exception. :-)

Answer 3

I am sorry you had such a bad experience in Texas. I've been to Dallas, Houston and San Antonio, and everybody was friendly, helpful and tolerant of my dumb, tourist questions. Even the Customs people were nice!
Hope your next trip is better.

Answer 4

I passed through Amarillo once met a guy who worked for the railroad and he had a stripper girlfriend and some of her friends needless to say a couple of 8 balls later and 5 days of Sex and parting and I would tend to Hold back any profiling of Texans

Answer 5

There is a lot of cool stuff to do in Galvisten. The people were friendly and I had a great time.
