I have more of a New York accent than a texas one, oh and another thing...whats the deal with the professor he can make coconut into a radio but he cant fix a hole in the side of boat?
Its funny that we "think" we have no accent but if you go to New York they'll know right away that you're Texan. You can try real hard to hide your Texas accent but it will always be there until the end.

there is a racist stereotype that really gets on my nerves. I used to share an office with a couple of people from the Northeast. They were your typical "intellectual", ivy league liberals...one went to Cornell, the other Princeton, both got their MBAs from Wharton. They would frequently take potshots at "backwards" places like Texas, and the south in general. Once, after I told them that Texas was far less racist than DC, they rolled their eyes and cited the dragging death of James Byrd (was that his name?) insisting that something like that was irrefutable evidence of the rampant racism in Texas.
thats exactly what I'm sayin!! I always tell people that east texas is actually part of Arkansas........
To with 'em. If they're so rude that they have to point out bad attributes of your home state, I say give 'em an adios and deal with somebody else. It's poor business, and not at all professional.
what stereotypes?
Congrats on not sharing an office with two pompous Yankees anymore.there is a racist stereotype that really gets on my nerves. I used to share an office with a couple of people from the Northeast.

agreed.Congrats on not sharing an office with two pompous Yankees anymore.
I have an accent like that also....i stick out around town and in Texas
I spent a lot of years in Dallas... if someone grew up around there, you could tell what side of town they came from. My mom's side of the family grew up around the Mesquite area and their accent is as hick as it comes... except for my mom, strangely...
Dallas isn't really Texas
if you think about it
its only good quality is that steven stills, srv and pantera are from there
You do have an accent and stick out around here. lol I get a kick out of it.
You're rude, obnoxious, loud and curse like a sailor
regular NYer, forget about it

well i'm sure those 2 poor bas s at Best Buy knew where i came from and was on par with that expectation of NYers ...
forget it i'm not one of the nicer ones i guess
We live just south of Boerne. What pisses me off is that I have to say "just south" or "just outside" to help shed the assumptions that we are just a bunch of gun-shootin', huntin', cursin' an' dippin' rednecks. Not the Texas Cowboy stereotype, the Boerne Redneck stereotype.
That REALLY pisses me off.
The whole bit about only steers and s come from Texas gets on my nerves.
It really "frosts my hide" that people think that every guy from Texas drives around in a pick up truck drinking beer with one of these decals on the back window...
I wasn't aware of that stereotype. I thought all people from Boerne wore liederhosen and ate sauerkraut and wienerschnitzel with beer at every meal and grew hops in their backyard.
damn wienerschnitzel is delicious
Oh yeah I forgot about the bratwurst and the apple strudel. Oh, and everyone in Boerne sells antiques for a living.
Yeah but thats true
That one actually is true.Oh, and everyone in Boerne sells antiques for a living.
Y'all are missing the point. Every time you are out of state, you should do your dead best to perpetuate the stereotype and leave the person you met stupider than when you found them.
Yankees who don't know the differences between a redneck and white trash
