Did you take those awful pics?
Oil rigs, sprawl, oil rigs, refineries, mobile homes, cul de sacs, oil rigs and oil rigs, honky tonks, refineries, highways, pollution, tract housing and oil rigs.

Houston's most famous and lasting gift to the world-- Urban Cowboy-- has cemented your city's image for perpetuity. Is your trailer home much like Scott Glenn's or do you have a double wide?

I guarentee I've been to far more places than you.

I'm sorry packing up your minivan and driving across the state to Indiana doesn't really mean you've travelled.

Hahahajaja I can't believe he said NYC is noting more than terrorists out to blow up the city.

You sound even more ignorant than the Texas redneck you're trying to make fun of with the juvenile accent mocking.

First, 9/11 is a joke to you and now you're a homophobe.

No wonder you live in such a nasty city. It matches your fug personality.

This thread has become a laughing stock thanks to the OP. Not worth discussing.

The Not-So-Second City


Affirming the evident, the American Institute of Architects recently judged Chicago the city with the finest architecture in the country. To take the obvious a bit further, Chicago holds more important buildings of the past century and a half than any other place in the world. And to look at it another way, Chicago's architecture constitutes one of this country's greatest contributions to modern civilization.

Oh PLEASE.

Ever hear of hyperbole? Probably not, since you probably don't have higher than a 4th grade vocabulary.

Secondly, my best friend is gay. I was referring to Brokeback Mountain as a horrible movie and fitting that a Texan like yourself would be offended by it.

Forget it. I refuse dealing with you anymore. I've also alerted the moderators to your obvious trolling.

PS: You can't still be angry since 2005 when the White Sox swept the Astros, can you?

Lmao. And only 3 Chicago buildings managed to make AIA's nyc dominated too 100 buildings.

Pitiful for a city who tries their hardest to persuade people that hey have the best architecure. LOL

You have horrible population problems so why not spread more lies to boost the city (even though nobody is listening!)

Haha
