Deep in the Heart of Texas

What I've learned about Texas in my short time here:

1. Texas drivers are infuriatingly awful. My number one pet peeve is that they all seem like they went to the same driving school and the instructor didn't know how to make a turn without coming to a full stop.

2. Texas has terrible pizza. Seriously, it isn't even passable. A Texan trying to make a pizza is like a Chinese person trying to pronounce the letter L.

3. Texas makes up for it by having outrageously good Hamburgers.

4. Texas is full of Stunningly beautiful tall blonde women (even if they aren't really blonde, they still count)

5. Texas' dating scene is ridiculously bourgeois.

6. Texas people have no idea how to handle snow, as can be seen through 2 people trying to clean their cars off with a spatula and a blanket, respectively.

7. Texas is really sprawled out. You can meet someone you work with and find out that they live an hour and a half drive away from you.

8. Dallas Cowboys fans hate Tony Romo as much if not more so than non-Cowboys fans.

9. 75 degree weather is apparently too cold for going to the pool.

10. Drinking and Driving is not driving while drunk. Driving while drunk isn't tolerated, but drinking a beer while driving is simply "road soda"

11. Drinking and Working are the two mainstays of life. If a Texan isn't doing one, he/she is doing both.

12. Lightning Storms are spectacular.
