All you fockers north of the Mason-Dixon line need to stay the hell away from the South. Y'all won't like it. It's 110 here every day after the first day of spring with 90% humidity. It stays that way until the day before Christmas.

Good luck with that. These people were stupid enough to stay in Cali as long as they did. They are going to bring the stupid with them. It's happened in Nashville already. I hate that place with a passion.

Bingo. Texas will be perma-blue by 2032
And then the same clowns will be looking to move again. I guess stupidity doesn't understand you can only sh!t so much in your own backyard before the stench overtakes you and at that point you seek greener pastures once more.

Texas transplants are a running joke in many parts of the country. Laughing at them is the only way to cope.

Amen! If you're gonna be "missionaries" instead, go to Oklahoma.
Hell no! Oklahoma hasn't done anything to deserve that. Stay in California.
Fine, fine. Alaska then. lol
Nooooo, not Alaska either!! Washington state is acceptable, IMO.

If that doesn't discourage you northerners, might I remind you that south of the Potomac we have mosquitoes the size of eagles!!!

Ahhhh HELL NO!!!! We have enough refugees from OR and WA!! They have turned Anchorage blue, and it is getting worse here every year now. It only takes a few to hurt us do to our small population base. Between the large amount of multi generational government teat suckers, to the ones that work for the govt, there are not many of us who do not depend on the govt for everything....
“Gone to Texas” was the original title of a novel that — back in the 1970s — was made into a movie called The Outlaw Josey Wales. Great book, great movie.

Generalize much?
One of my best friends in college grew up in Belen, NM. I have been to most parts of NM except northwest NM very different terrain than the Pine Thickets of East Texas but still has its own mystique and isn't encumbered by people. Wide open spaces deserts mesas and mountains. Good snow skiing.
One of the strangest things happened in Belen to me that to this day I can still see visually. We stopped in Fort Sumner at the last chance gas station and believe me it was the last chance for gas. Friend had a truck with two tanks and we topped off both of them and barely made it to Mountain Air on fumes. After we got to his parents house late that night I crashed and woke up early the next day because we gained an hour. It was sunrise and I went outside and saw people dressed like they were going to some gala or some formal ball. But, they were dressed like from a hundred years ago or maybe 1800s. Women were in full length dresses and wore decorative hats and the men had on suits with vests. Hats as well. They were sitting and standing around this table outside talking and laughing. I went back inside and woke my friend and told him what was going on outside. He didn't seem concerned and when I went back out they were gone. Nothing, like it had never happened. He blew off and wouldn't answer any questions except vaguely and was uncomfortable so I dropped it. A month later he told me that what I saw everybody knew of in the area. Mirages are powerful and visually descriptive in NM even at daybreak!
New Mexicans are the worst drivers only second to Asians. Everytime we see a car with NM plates we say clear of them. One time I asked a Navy reserve friend why they drive so terribly and he said that they're not accustomed to so much traffic and that driving here in El Paso as fast as we do makes them nervous. I believed him 'cause it made sense.

Well damn, I learn something new every day.
Unfortunately I knew that, mainly because I've watched The Outlaw Josey Wales 748 times including the credits. I could turn off the volume and recite all the lines with them. I know, I know....

Yes, the point is not everyone is a malcontent like yourself. You try your best to put others down to build yourself up. Unfortunately most on here see right through your half azzed attempt.
Now, run along and see what other pots of dissention you can stir up.

I’ve gotta go anyway. The Flying Dutchman just sailed thru my strawberry patch out back and I wanted to see if I could get a tour. And the nymphs living under my stairs are arguing about which had the best seat on their UFO excursion yesterday and making it hard to concentrate anyway.
Oh, and then wouldn’t you know it, Bigfoot just showed up and wants me to settle a dispute between him and Mothman.
But to be fair, a variety of people do indeed see ghosts. You’ve got your regular lunatics, your nutcases, some maniacs, and a few psychos. So even I recognize, it certainly does happen.
