No need to start a thread about Houston, since trolls are starting one or two every week. I'll continue to protest whatever I feel like and you'll continue to deal with it.
I'm sorry, but you're the most unpleasant non-troll poster on these forums, and that's saying something. Some people are not going to like Houston in the same way you do, and that's fine, right? Everyone's different. Or will you be angry until everyone else thinks it's the center of the universe like you do? Seems pretty unreasonable, no?
Yet another thing you're wrong about is Dallas area BBQ:

Dallas - bland, soulless, fake, people are pretentious, lots of high end shopping and luxury car dealerships, lack of scenery
Lubbock - friendly people, big enough to get city amenities but small enough where crowds and traffic aren't problems, beautiful sunsets
Austin - different feel from the other Texas cities. Beautiful scenery around the city, love the Hill Country
Buffalo, NY - friendly people, lakefront is pretty, older housing stock, some older houses look amazing, others not so much, laid-back and unpretentious. Lots of people have above-ground pools. Love the four seasons and snowy winters. Most underrated city
El Paso, TX - if my family didn't live there, I'd probably never visit. Lots of amazing taco places (Chico's) and authentic Mexican food. Laid back and unpretentious.
Chicago - amazing food, love the train system (we can get from my family's in the 'burbs to downtown without driving), Lake Michigan is beautiful, everyone should go to the Art Institute of Chicago at least once in their lives
Palm Beach County area of Florida - nice beaches, but it seems like the crowd there is mostly retirees. Very humid, it rains quite a bit during the summer.
San Antonio, TX - very fun, touristy city. Lots to do with the Riverwalk, Alamo and Sea World. Traffic seems the lightest out of the major cities in Texas.
Boston - LOTS and LOTS of history. Very humid during the summer. Easy to get around without a car. The drivers were not nearly as bad as people warned us about.
NYC - AMAZING public transit, Very easy to get around without a car. We've been a few times and still haven't seen everything we've wanted to. Surprisingly hot during the summer, not as cold as expected during the winter.
Gatlinburg, TN - the Smokey Mountains are beautiful. However, it seems very overly touristy and I would have preferred to visit a quieter area of the Smokey Mountains.

Are you sure you shouldnt consider changing your screen name? Maybe something like "DFWsucks" or "IhateDFW"? The theme just seems to be constant from your posts.
No disrespect, your are entitled to your opinion. That said, your screen name is misleading.

I've made positive remarks about Dallas, people just choose to ignore them and focus on the negative.

I don't care that you find me unpleasant, so pretending that you have me figured out isn't doing me any harm. No one likes me until I agree with them.
I'm not looking to win any prizes here, yet my reputation is rather high, so apparently there's more than just a few people who appreciate what I have to say.

Whatever happened to respecting people's opinions? Or does that only apply when it's something you agree with? Either way, my comment was mostly tongue-in-cheek, and I'm sure the Dallasites are aware of that.
