One day when I’d just moved to Texas while honking at a person who cut me off my friend told me we don’t honk at people here in Texas, we’re the friendly state. I said well we honk at people in NY to let them know they can’t drive. She said well you keep doing that here somebody is likely to shoot you. I said let me get this straight, I shouldn’t honk my horn because in the friendly state of Texas I’ll get shot at for doing so?
@Splitter honey, you know an awful lot about me from a casual RUclips comment that was 29% humor. Your insight is amazing. Any honey, people who start sentences with honey sound so condescending. Unless you’re from Texas bless your heart.
@Splitter you’re too funny for words. I have no idea what you are talking about with missing comments, if there are any I have no control over that. A RUclips conversation chain isn’t so important to me that I’d edit it. And with that, over and out.
@Splitter Splitter, bro, you're blowing a fuse over this person's telling a simple story that happened to him while in Texas. You're telling him that his threshold for what counts as jerk behavior must be low... do you even have a threshold or are you always that expressive? Maybe you're the weird one, condoning shooting people over a honk because you're a bad driver. What is this? Stupid Apologist?
“Why use a nutcracker when you have a sledgehammer?” Because why would I want to smash the nut when I want to eat it? Using a tool that just removes the shell is way better

"All hat no cattle" is a good one ngl
"That ain't no polar bear." I'd sure like some context on this one.
It's something people in Texas say when they see a bear, and they think it's a polar bear but it ain't
@@marcelofa89 Thanks for clearing that up.

Someone approached Trump from the back.
As we say in Texas, "I'm an out-of-touch rich person desperately trying to sound working class."

We can come up with new sayings like "That news source you watch is about as reliable as a Texas power grid."
"There's an old saying in Tennessee -- I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee -- that says, 'Fool me once, shame on...shame on you. Fool me, you can't get fooled again.'"

To be fair, Texas is kind of Tennessee's fault
Having lived in Texas my entire life I can definitively say no. No we don't say any of those things in Texas.
The guy at the end just smiling with a slow "...no-" was really funny.
As we say everywhere else, “Don’t go to Texas”
Truth!
As a resident of Austin, I can assure you that you have not said it enough. They're still coming. Stop them. Traffic and housing prices are beyond ridiculous.

Why use a BB gun when you have an AR15.

As we say in Texas, make shit up ' cause it doesn't really matter.
Same. "All hat and no cattle," is the only one i've heard.

Chuck Schumer getting “all hat no cattle” wrong is GLORIOUS
For non-Texans, it’s basically “all bark no bite”
It's more like calling someone a poser, which makes it hilarious to see all these white-collar pansies using it.
I don't think there was anything more Chuck Schumer-esk possible in this clip
that alligator-humming bird bit
As we say in texas: "I haven't ever heard of this gibberish"
I've lived here for 25 years, and haven't heard ANY of these (of course, I've lived in the RGV and San Antonio, so it's a little different).
I've been here my entire life. I've lived in rural east Texas, the suburbs of Dallas, and the city of Austin. I've heard 4 out of the entire video.
As they say in Texas: „What the f are they talking about?!“
As a native Texan, the only one I instinctually knew was "all hat and no cattle"
"as we say in texas, if grasshoppers had shotguns, crows wouldn't fvck with em"
"Happy as a dead pig in the sunshine."
"Let me tell you how the cow ate the cabbage."
"He's not just stingy. He's tighter than Dick's hatband."

"Don't piss (in my boots/down my back) and tell me it's raining." Translation: Don't bullshit me.

Or the variation, "Come and Take It," which is about taking your guns away.

The only reason to move to texas is to be able to say "as we say in texas"
I think he probably meant “come and take it” which is for guns. “Come and get it” is for supper.
