King Karl he/him Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 On 10/24/2020 at 9:43 AM, Chasmgoat said: was this inspired by my Texas comment? anyway... (most of these are not weird stereotypes) I am Texan and some stereotypes include: that everyone is a cowboy kinda person that everyone is really really big on football. (most people are though...) we only eat barbeque and steak and big juicy burgers. (I wish this was true) we live in a desert everything is bigger in texas we only listen to country music also, @Scarletfox, if you want you can tell me if any of the above need revising... Well, I'm from Texas, you know this @Chasmgoat, and here's my opinion. I wear boots 5/7 days a week, love football, everything is bigger in Texas, and I'm listening to country music right now. If I could I would basically only eat burgers, brisket, and sausage. So basically most of those stereotypes are true for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention bikers and pedestrians who never follow the laws and truck drivers who won’t use truck routes. Oh, and the DoT intentionally messes with the lights and keeps blocking emergency routes with concrete sidewalks or narrowing streets to the point that fire engines can’t turn. And there is NEVER enough parking. Between which you have to be A: a very good driver and B: a very aggressive one. Defensive driving in NYC means being aggressive and knowing when to take a risk and knowing when following the traffic law is stupid and WILL get you killed. (Cough... Gowanus to the Brooklyn Battery... cough) It also means learning to ignore curses and horns. Being non-aggressive is more likely to get you into an accident, honestly. Try driving the Jackie sometime. Two tiny, narrow lanes and multiple hairpin turns in succession. Or the aforementioned Gowanus, where it’s safer to enter long before its legal to do so! The problem tends to occur when we take this kind of driving elsewhere, where being aggressive isn’t safer or when tourists come to New York and fail to realize that aggressive = safe here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuckOfMysteriousProportion he/him Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Western PA: We all speak Pittsburghese, which basically means 'yinz' instead of 'you,' adding "'n'at" to the end of every clause, and talking like you're garbling stones. Wayne would love it. We're all die hard Steelers fans (Stillers in Pittsburghese). SINKHOLES!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
