There were a few, genuinely solid lines in this, but the bulk of it wasn't really anything unusual or unique to Dallas. Just saying, "Oh, she lives in ____" or "let's eat at _____" was a waste of time and could have been cut. Everybody everywhere says such generic things.

Otherwise, eh, I laughed. A for effort.


The Dallas one was definitely better than the HP one.

No, anything that has close proximity to a major city is considered a Suburb of that city.

I beg to differ. But whatever, nor cal should be a different state.

I lived in California for nearly 30 years, so I remember. Look it up but really, it doesn't matter anyway. Perhaps it should be a different state and perhaps Texas should be five different states.

LOL! The whole time I was watching, I was thinking - why is 95% of this about food, drinking, and hatred of anything related to exercise?????

And I too lived in California for nearly 30 years. I don't need to look it up.

I didn't mean that hatefully; it's really on the web that it was call Frisco beginning in the Gold Rush days. It stuck while I lived there until 1978.

Because the most popular activities in DFW involve eating, drinking, shopping, and general assal horizontology.
