I forgot to mention that I had a friend who was born in NY and moved to Texas during grammer school. She was the worst; "I am a NY Jew from Texas". Nothing was as good as NY unless it came from Texas.
That's the worst combo. NY and TX. That's a MONSTER. I met NY texans, they were surprisingly humble.
I don't see why Texas is being said so much. Just like CA, we could careless about what you say about us. We are constantly talked about in news and media. We're use to being criticized unlike New Yorkers where they always praised.
I used to live in FL, and that holds true for every other state NY invades. I now live in NC, and that is all you hear. We all love NYC, it's a great city, why must you let us know you're from NYC EVERY 5minutes. Geez. Insecure maybe.
You must be in Charlotte! I think CLT is going through what FL has been going through.
Indeed Texans have a LARGE ego. But at least it's love of there state and not hatred of others. New Yorkers will move to your state put down your state, and brag about theres. As a matter of fact it was a New Yorker that I met, they asked me where I used to live before I moved to NC, and I told them TX. He sort of rolled his eyes and said TX was a racist state, because GW was from there.. And this guy hasn't even been to TX. I just laughed, it wasn't too big of a deal, then I talk about NY and an argument unsues. I'm telling you man, TX is like:Were TX, were awesome, were, the best, NY is like:Were NY, Were the best, Were awesome, and YOUR state sucks, and I wanna move back to NY, You guys are country yadi yada yada. And I'm sure not ALL New Yorkers are this way.
How do you think we in FL feel??????? Some of us real Floridians are still in FL and they are still doing it!!!!!!!!

Please explain why almost 1/3 want to secede then? You may say because of the Federal government, but like it or not, it is still a representative government from every state.
Now I think there are many humble, friendly Texans out there, and I have met many of them in my travels. But when a Texan wears his pride(either state or in himself) on his/her shoulder, it can annoy others (greatly). Luckily it is a minority (maybe 1 out of 3) that are like that. However, they are a loud minority...
