It’s been a mighty long time since the RT has written anything about the Good Ol’ Republc of Texas. So here goes.
Twenty-Five things you’ll never hear a Real Texan say:
- I wish I lived somewhere else.
- This chili is too hot.
- I don’t like football.
- I wish more Yankees would move here.
- Texas is too big.
- I don’t like Blue Bell Ice Cream.
- We need more than one Ranger to stop this riot.
- Forget the Alamo.
- I don’t like Bob Wills.
- Do you want a soda?
- Bring me some hot tea.
- I’m afraid of guns.
- I don’t like Tex-Mex.
- Bluebonnets are for sissies.
- I don’t like Stevie Ray Vaughn.
- I think I’ll give my guns to the PTA.
- I prefer Milwaukee’s Best to Lone Star.
- I don’t like BBQ.
- “We’ll bring it to you!” (on a flag)
- I wish we had less oil in Texas.
- I don’t like pecans.
- I wish we were more like California or New York.
- I have no respect for Tom Landry.
- Big Tex is just a dumb ol’ statue.
- Ol’ Santa Anna was a pretty good guy.
Y’all stay happy out there.
I’m not gonna say that I don’t like Blue Bell (who doesn’t love I’ve cream?)…but I will say that the AR girl in me actually prefers Yarnell’s…
And, truthfully, I don’t like pecans.
Don’t judge.
